The real question about minimum wage laws

The minimum wage is an issue this campaign season, but there is a different
approach I have not heard mentioned. What if we could simultaneously try 50
different approaches and determine which approach is the most effective?
The federal minimum wage requirement was originally determined to be
unconstitutional by the Supreme Court. After FDR threatened to pack the
Supreme Court with an additional six justices, the Suprem... 阅读全帖 |

我们当年大讨论Obamacare的时候你肯定是不在的。
全民医保没什么不好，包括我认为德国是全民医保一个很好的例子，而且我也觉得全民
医保的话有望把美国的保费降低。
但美国的情况，搞全民无上限医保是行不通的。Obamacare尤其是一个劣选。
1）Obamacare的支付无上限要求导致individual plan的保费大幅提高，达到一年上万
的保费，对无法得到足够补贴的中产来说，远远不如以前有上限的保险（即Trump最近
推行的短期保险）一年1000-3000的保费划算。而后者最大的区别只是设立了10万至100
万不等的上限，而不是什么都不保。
2）美国目前的制度根本支撑不起无上限医保。无上限医保的必要条件是可以制定价格
以及制定个人可享受的医疗规格，而美国政府和保险公司均没有足够的定价权，
medicare等主要大头保险更没有在保险中宣布禁止使用某种新药的权利，Obamacare并

Alien tax status (resident or non-resident) is determined by the green
