Mises.org - I have a right to end my own life, because it is my life. It therefore follows that I also have a right to ask another person if they are willing to perform this task for me, just as I have hired other willing agents (barbers, lawyers, contractors, etc.) to perform various tasks for me throughout my life. But I do not have a right to force anyone to help me end my life. In contrast, the provincial government of Ontario wants to force doctors to help people fulfill their wish to die. The Legislation In 2016, the Canadian Parliament legalised active euthanasia, otherwise known as medical assistance in dying (MAID).

The Economics of Healthcare: Market Failure or Faulty Models? (Part 1)

Mises.org - It is commonly believed that healthcare is a sector plagued by "market failure." A heavy dose of government intervention is therefore necessary to optimize the needs of society. A paper most commonly cited in support of that view is one published in 1963 by Nobel Prize winner Kenneth Arrow, one of the giants of economic theory in the twentieth century, and titled "Uncertainty and the Welfare Economics of Medical Care." But how does economic theory arrive at the concept of market failure and how do economists conceive of health care when they apply their theoretical models to medical practice? To help sort this out, we have as our guest Robert P. Murphy, economist, teacher, and author of many books. Dr. Murphy obtained his PhD from NYU and is Senior Fellow at the Mises Institute. He is co-host with Tom Woods of the popular podcast Contra Krugman, and he is also host of The Bob Murphy Show, "a podcast promoting free markets, free minds, and grateful souls."
