The health insurance problem in this country could be fixed tomorrow, just like the Social Security problem. The Government doesn’t WANT to fix these problems.
I don’t think people ever traveled to this country for “affordable” health care; they traveled to this country for timely health care (waiting lists for socialist health care at home) or very-good health care (for exceptionally difficult diseases).
