FYI: The most common element of magic tricks is misdirection. The magician draws your attention to one thing so you won’t see what he is doing with something else.
As a personal finance writer I don’t think about magic often. I try to stick with the evidence and the odds. Then I thought about Penn and Teller, the popular duo with a long-standing act in Las Vegas. Lone-wolf magicians perform most magic. Penn and Teller are unusual. They operate as a team, a bit like our health care institutions. Health care has become an elaborate institutional magic trick. In one misdirection after another, the price always disappears.
