Our government screwing us AGAIN!------------------The Certificate of Need Con Job

The Certificate of Need Con Job [Michigan Capitol Confidential]:

The big corporations love increased regulation because it keeps new competitors from entering the market.
Politicians reward corporations with industry-wide regulations in exchange for $$$$$$.
"Using 2009 data from the Kaiser Family Foundation, Bruneau compares per capita health care expenditures in states imposing the Certificate of Need (CON) mandate and states that do not.
The costs are 11 percent higher on average in the CON states, $7,230 per capita compared to $6,526.
To the extent Michigan reflects that average, this means every man, woman and child in this state is paying an extra $704 annually thanks to government rationing."
