Schlesinger's family metaphor in American health policy history
All in all, health care is a commercialized system and does detract attention from those who need it, aside from failing to provide all with sufficient care due to some being less privileged than others. Nonetheless, at the end of the day, health care is a business with doctors needing to be paid, as all of us are. Technology and services cost and someone has to pay for that. Parenti's ideas are utopian and ideal. They can work best in an ideal world. But ours is not. Someone has to pay for the medical service, and, as Goldhill showed, the national expense is orbiting out of control.

Taxation and funding distribution in Trenton Public Schools
Despite a historical reputation as one of the most well funded state educational systems in the nation, New Jersey has traditionally supported its school districts through the collection and distribution of property taxes. According to the New Jersey Department of Education, prior to the landmark decision rendered in the case of Robinson v. Cahill in 1973, "New Jersey's public education system was afflicted by two glaring inequities: (1) public schools relied heavily – indeed, almost exclusively – on local property taxes for funding, with the result that property-rich districts dramatically outspent property-poor districts on a per-pupil basis; and (2) economically advantaged students dramatically out-achieved their less affluent peers" (Cerf, 2012). Today, however, a complex system known as the School Funding Reform Act (SFRA) formula relies on enrollment information and demographic data to calculate the level of funding allocated to each school district in New Jersey during the upcoming fiscal year.
