If you want to understand why healthcare pricing is horrific, the first thing to know is that our system puts 100% of the credit risk for deductibles, copays and co-insurance on hospitals and doctors. That's insane.

For Slate, I wrote up my thoughts on Gladiator 2, a movie I really liked, not least because it asks much harder questions about the Roman Empire than its predecessor.
