My apologies for the severe editing of this article...this was done in order to remain in compliance with Free Republic posting rules for The Times.  Please see the original Times page to see the full article...I had to cut away over half of the article in order to be able to post anything at all from it here, so you will be missing quite a bit of the story if you don't.

She added: “It will allow excessive demand from one country to be met by excessive capacity in another country. This is the essence of the co-operation.”

Does 'any' country on Earth have "excessive capacity" of healthcare services? 

It seems that the standard Socialist plan is being implemented again, where instead of reforming a given concern and making it better, they instead pull out all the stops to spread the misery around as widely as possible....when everyone is hurting, that means that they've been successful at 'creating equality'.

Please be sure to take a look at the reader comments at the Times page...many are thoughtful and insightful.

I’m guessing that “excessive capacity” of healthcare services means simply ‘too much healthcare’. Which is a concept that only a socialist could come up, and which should scare the crap out of any rational thinking person.

Yes, many comments on that page are thoughtful and inciteful, and not a one of them even questions the reasoning behind the EU making this declaration. They just all seem to be wondering about what’s in it for them—nary a comment about a weakened autonomy or a directive from on high.
