Hey mr Xenakis,

Great articles as usual, you know if it wasn't for your weblog then all us who read your blog would be blissfully ignorant. Sure we would mourn and cry for the loss of the Angelic Hillary of not winning the election, and feel anxiety over climate change, but other than that we would be content in the limited knowledge that that the socialist elites have everything under Control in the world.

With regards to the NHS of Britain I want to give you some information about the State monopoly of National Healthcare in Norway that is following the same pattern, with regards to your theory for the same causal factors.

The expenditures of Norwegian healthcare cost has quadrupled in the last 30 years, and was in 2003 10% of total GNP.
The price for each person in the healthcare system has increased by 70% in the last 30 years.
The National Health Care patient bed capacity has decreased 67% in the last 25 years from 21000 to 14200 capacity.

In 1965 there were one doctor for 940 people, in 2000 there were one doctor for 295 people. Yet the number of patients that has waited above 6 months for treatment was in 1995 over 95000 patients and in 2010 it had risen to over 260,000 patients. So National Healthcare is following the same pattern as every other price control/government monopoly: Increase in expenditure, Increase in employees, decrease in quality, decrease in service.

(source: Healthcare policies: Knut Halvorsen 2005)

Keep in mind healthcare and specifically senior care is one of the main themes of every election.

Most suprisingly is that over 60% of the increase in healthcare services does not come from elderly citizens as the "elder wave" theory have stated, but instead it is younger people (age 18 - 26) who are using health services at a faster rate than older people, and it is only increasing exponentially with younger generations. So every budgetary model for the directorate monopoly is wrong because they did not take this into account gen X'ers abusing the system as i.e Game theory predicts, instead believing younger generations X'ers to be as "stoic" as the war generation (source: Carl Ivar Hagen: Klar Tale). Maybe additional variable for your generational theory?

I did a study 8 years ago about collusion and corruption in the public sector in Norway, most specifically a case study in my Commune and I found high level of collusion with regards to bogus overtime from the lowest employee to the leadership, labor union and the HR wage departments. Additionally at a higher level I went through what is in Norway "Riksrevisjon Direktoratet" or "Kingdom Revision Directorate" and they produced yearly records of what they called themselves "dangerous high level of undocumented expenditures/deficits" that could not be specified by the various governmental departments financial records which again can only be mean that employees are stealing from the budget without any real oversight or consequences. I can get you the specifics if you want, I don't have the article on my current computer or cloud.

To your left wing vs right wing ideology you say both are always wrong. I would agree that the left is always wrong, because economics is a measurable and predictable statistics which makes it a science and everywhere macro economics have been applied (which is every economy) the results always show the same. Now right wing is basically everything that is not left wing whereas left wing is socialism, communism, fabian socialism and so on, which means right wing is also fascism which comes from Mussolini's socialism which is always wrong thereby making your argument true and valid. Even so Right Wing economics as represented by Milton Friedman teachings is still predictably correct and with regards to deflation/inflation is correct in conjunction with generational theory or are there points where your theory differ with specifically Milton Friedman?

I have thought of Norway as being close to heaven: a small population with a lot of oil and an efficient/honest government. So much for that.

So what happens to people in the UK and Norway when public hospitals go bust, John?

That's great information about Denmark's health system. Thanks.

Friedman and Keynes both made the same mistake as every other
mainstream economist - they overlook generational effects. It's
like a mental block. They just can't seem to grasp the concept.
That's why they always get things wrong.

Think the Great Depression and WW II.
