Andy Myer: Why Is the Government the Health Care Boogeyman?
Don't get me wrong, I believe in capitalism. You gotta love an economic system that offers you 435 kinds of toothpaste, from Colgate's Ultra White-Baking Soda-Cool Mint-Tartar Control-UltraSensitive, to Tom's of Maine's Rutabaga-Fennel Surprise. You just won't find that kind of innovation on the store shelves of Moscow.

But after all we've been through after the past several decades, I'm just mystified about why the government is still the bogeyman of choice with large sectors of our fellow citizens.
