‘Biochemically Separate and Unequal’
A wonderful piece by the Manhattan Institute's Peter Huber in the City Journal explains that one-size-fits-all medicine is giving way to tailored medical treatments that allow physicians to target treatments to individual patients based upon their own specific genetic code.

Is it possible to have both? I doubt it. Once politicians taste political control over such a large sector of our economy, it is extraordinarily difficult for them to back away.
