In theory, physicians should like health-care reform designed to (a) make care more available to more people, and (b) reduce the costs of insurers and other middlemen, all else being equal (which of course it never is). The former increases the size of their market, and the latter increases their share of spending. And yet these factors never seem to count for much.
