Free-Market Healthcare and Federalism on the Rise

How about some good news on a Friday?  

Hat tip Dr. John Goodman at the NCPA:  

  • Federalism lives: about four-fifths of the states now have enacted local laws that directly reject or ignore federal laws on marijuana use, gun control, health insurance requirements and identification standards for driver’s licenses.
  • 6 percent of physicians in the cash-only business in 2013, up from 4 percent in 2012.
