In yesterday's commentary on Boutique Medicine, I described two extreme ideological visions for our health system: the egalitarian and the libertarian vision.
My high school in mid-December's early decision season is like a war zone. Espionage is undertaken to find out who has gotten in where.
In their spirited point-counterpoint on "boutique medicine" (Feb. 11, 2002), Natalya Efros '05 and Eric Harkleroad '03 framed the debate on our nation's health policy, honestly, as only young people would.
