America's health-care system is the envy of the world, but it faces serious challenges. The costs of care are rising rapidly, the number of uninsured Americans is at an all-time high, and public dissatisfaction is steadily increasing. How can we preserve the strengths of our current system while correcting its weaknesses? Three of America's leading health-care scholars answer that question in Healthy, Wealthy, and Wise. Poorly conceived federal tax policies, insurance regulations, and barriers to entry have distorted health-care markets and inhibited competition. John F. Cogan, R. Glenn Hubbard, and Daniel P. Kessler propose five key policies to build a better health-care system: (1) health-care tax reform, (2) insurance reform, (3) improvement of health-care information, (4) control of anticompetitive behavior, and (5) malpractice system reform. Together, these changes would harness the power of markets to deliver better health care to Americans. These reforms would strengthen consumers' ability to be cost- and value-conscious shoppers, while promoting quality and innovation in health care, pharmaceuticals, and medical technology. And, by cutting the cost of care by $60 billion per year, these reforms would make health insurance affordable for at least 6 million--and perhaps as many as 20 million--uninsured Americans.

Not illustrated. 1855 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER IV. EABLY BI8ING PBOMOTES THE HEALTH OF THE MIND AND SOUL. This is unquestionably by far the most important view of the subject. How we may best promote the interests of the soul, and develope the faculties of the understanding, should ever be our chief concern. And I submit that early rising is eminently calculated to help forward both of these grand objects. That it is so, it needs only to be tried to prove, if the testimony and the example of many of the most holy and most learned men be not sufficient evidence. And I think that every one, who, from conviction and from choice, has adopted the practice of rising early, would be most unwilling to fall into the opposite habit. An habitual early riser, especially if a child of God, knows well that his intellectual vigour, his cheerfulness, his comfort, and his contentment of mind, are materially aided and improved by this means. He also knows well that his spiritual strength, his loving-service for God, his selfcontrol, his peace of mind, together with all other inward graces and outward evidences of them, depend not a little upon the recollectedness of mind, and the time for devotional exercises, which the habit of rising early helps him to cultivate, and secure. To enlarge, then, upon some of these advantages: --I. First, as to those which the Mind derives by this means, it has been found by experience, that, 1. The TTUDEBSTANDING is most VIGOBOtTS m the early morning; and that Eaely Eisiug Impboyes It. The mind is clearer, and the judgment more to be depended upon, in the early morning, than at any other part of the day. It is the habit of judicious men to "sleep upon" any important plan or decision, at least one night if they can, before committing themselves to it. They know...
