04/09/15 Guest John R. Graham (Very Important Show). Join Dr. Hal Scherz and his guest John R. Graham, Senior Fellow at the National Center For Policy Analysis reveals the gimmicks behind the financing of the Medicare Doc Fix and unpacks the centralizing forces behind "quality" of care vs the "quantity" of care new regulations.
Patrick and Mary Peterson, Beth Haynes and the Benjamin Rush Institute invite you to join an intimate (30 guests maximum), convivial gathering, to sample fine wines and cheeses and meet other free market friends. You will also hear our special guest, "the last Soviet Defector," Yuri Malstev speak about the dangers of socialized medicine. Yuri will offer some brief remarks on his experiences with socialized medicine in the Soviet Union as well as some key points toward a better system from an Austrian free market ideas perspective. Hosted at the beautiful Half Moon Bay Wine & Cheese, this promises to be a memorable evening. We can't imagine a better place for free market dads to be on Father's Day!
Assuming that Obamacare will either be declared unconstitutional (at least a large part of it) by the Supreme court in the last week in June, or that it will simply fail from its own inefficiencies, costs and contradictions, what will come next? The two clear but opposite paths for healthcare need some more consideration: socialized or free market.
You have a unique opportunity to enjoy, in a sophisticated setting, the wit and wisdom of someone greatly familiar with both paths, from personal historical experience in Soviet Russia as well as logical, but realistic, Austrian free market economic theory.
NOTE: This event takes place EST.

Let My Doctor Practice is a movement founded by United Physicians and Surgeons of America (UPSA) to restore the voice of the doctor to the practice of medicine. We believe in the sanctity of the doctor-patient relationship, the autonomy to practice medicine without restraint imposed by overreaching government and corporate entities, and, above all, that patient care and safety should never be compromised. Together, we will unite our voices to restore the practice of medicine to those who actually practice medicine.
Held in beautiful Keystone, Colorado, many of our favorite speakers and doctors (including Dr. Beth Haynes, BRI Executive Director) will be convening to take decisive steps to restore commonsense to American healthcare.
