Stories Causing Atlas to Shrug - Memorial Day Edition

In 2012 California Fined, Penalized & Initiated More Actions vs Employers Than Ever Before

A new study finds that for every hour emergency department workers use a computer, they spend an average of 12 minutes on Facebook — and that time on the site actually 
goes up as the department becomes busier.  H/T: John Goodman.  

89% of already published articles, disguised & submitted again a year or so later are denied for 'serious methodological flaws'. 

Say goodbye to that $500 deductible insurance plan and the $20 co-payment for a doctor’s office visit: 1 in 6 Companies Already Cutting Benefits to Avoid ‘Cadillac Tax’
Smaller companies are so desperate to avoid the bite of ObamaCare that they are looking to self-insure all the way down to 10 employees; and carriers are providing stoploss for it.

Facelifts, tummy tucks & Lasik surgery could have guided free market healthcare reform if anyone bothered to look at their successes. 

Doctor: ObamaCare should cover weight-loss surgeries because southerners are submersed in a culture of sedentary eating.
