The most interesting thing about the article is that it describes how the nations with some form of a socialized health care system - Canada, Britain, France and even Sweden - realize it's been disastrous and are moving AWAY from that towards privatized, free-market models. The supreme irony is Obama and the Democrats have us moving INTO such a system. And this at a time when have right before us clear evidence that such a system will provide inferior patient care and astronomical taxes.

NOTE: The Liberal elite are wealthy and DON’T STAND IN LINE.
Its all about political power and taking away health care from the non-elite and giving it to the losers.

Folks, the answer is very simple. Mobilize your family & friends, stage a protest with as many people as you can persuade to go to the steps of the Capital, and make yourself heard.
Secondly, make sure you and everybody you know votes for a CONgresscritter in ‘10 that is NOT an incumbent. I don’t care if that non-incumbent is a communist or some other specie. Get the entrenched idiots out of office and MAKE THEM AFRAID OF THE BALLOT BOX.
Right now over 96% are returned to office every election. That MUST STOP !
If there is no longer an “elite” in CONgress, they won’t vote one thing for us and another thing for themselves.

Great article. One of the clubs the socialized medicine liberals like to whack us over the head with is the life expectancy canard, that ours is lower than even Canada’s and France’s.
When they factor out automobile accidents and homicides, Americans outlive citizens of every other western country.

The supreme irony is Obama and the Democrats have us moving INTO such a system. And this at a time when have right before us clear evidence that such a system will provide inferior patient care and astronomical taxes.And our giant push toward it is on. Did it even save the other nations any money? It is ironic, sad and sickening.
And with many Americans working for less, if they're working at all now, who's to pay all these astronomical taxes? Will those who lost their jobs through no fault of their own be at the bottom of that list?
One thing we have learned from other nations' forays into the hell of socialized medicine. It works just fine - if you manage to stay healthy. It also helps if you can save the funds and travel out of country for help.
