When I think of stable, affordable, accessible, good-quality medical care for all, I think of France. It is possible for the very rich to get slightly better care in the United States, but the average person is in about the same position, and many Americans can't get any decent care at all. Some other nationalized medicine systems are in much worse shape. The NHS in the UK, for example, is a shining example of how not to run such a system. -- Transpose mxsmanic and gmail to reach me by e-mail.

When you think of quality of life, do you think of the USA? BTW, thanks for sacrificing yourselves for the rest of us ungrateful bastards. -- --- DFM - http://www.deepfriedmars.com --- --

What do you think is behind the 10%+ unemployment that they just can't bring down?

I saw a very interesting "debate" on one of the news shows a couple of years ago (seems like it was Hard Talk but I'm not sure). The debate was about Socialized Medicine as it relates to drugs. Canada tightly controls drug prices to keep their Socialized Medicine system afloat. There was a Canadian government leader defending that. On the other side was a drug company exec. The drug exec said that the price controls in Canada had stopped innovation. No new drugs are being developed in Canada. The government official refuted that. He pointed out that in the last decade *3*(!!) new drugs had been developed in Canada. That's right. 3!!!!!! Proving what the drug exec said. In the same period of time probably 3,000 had been developed in the US. Socialized medicine kills innovation. Let's simplify that statement. Socialized (you fill in the blank with anything you can think of) kills innovation. |
