I have been in foreign hospitals twice.
The first was in Spain a few years ago. I went to the cardiac unit with a group and to my surprise it was an open ward with sort of cots and people lying around. The cardiologist was sitting with a cigarette in his mouth and looking at a monitor of something while smoking in the ward.
The second time was with a child with an ear infection. We went in the examing room and there was a roach crawing around. The doc started to look in her ear and she screamed. He kept trying to force the otoscope down her ear and she was yelling so painful was it. I yanked her up, left and went to a pharmacy and got antibiotics without a Rx and treated her.
I don’t want to be ill in a foreign country.
And I have been treated in a French hospital.
My mother in Austria.
One minor complaint(mine), one serious. Both occasions we received first class care.
Swings and roundabouts....
If Obamaserfcare passes, the US will soon be a foreign country for many of us. If Obama prevails, THIS MUST NOT STAND should be our motto through the November elections. Conservative states must also implement interposition to put themselves between the FedGov and their citizens.
