My wife is Filipino, is a naturalized US citizen, but is in the process of getting her Philippine citizenship back so that she will be a dual citizen (many Filipinos do this).
Anyway, if ObamaConManCare is passed and becomes law and at some point it becomes difficult to get the healthcare we want and need here, moving to the Philippines is an option we can and would exercise.
We presently live a few hours from the Mexican border. Already we go there for Rx medicine a few times a year, and occasionally for dental work. We are not alone — many many Americans frequent the town that we go to for the same purposes.
I fully expect that if ObamaConManCare passes, that in these Mexican border towns where prescription medicine, dental care, etc. are already common for Americans, that medical treatment meccas will pop up quickly offering all manner of treatment for Americans. And I believe that much of it will be done by American doctors who refuse to work for the US government for cheap, so will go across the border and set up shop, with many living in the US, and commuting just across the border to their new offices.
