No need to wonder...the best medical care in this country is reserved
for those who can pay for the most expensive medical care.

Radical, totally radical. People like you and I with good insurance
and disposable income get better care, radical.



Once again...whooooooosh.


I guess you are just too profound for us ordinary mortals. Are you
suggesting that *everyone* should get exactly the same level of health
care regardless of their ability to pay? They have that in Canada
and no one seems to like it very much.

Perhaps you could state your point a little more succinctly.



What I am suggesting is that very wealthy foreigners come here for
health care because the best we have to offer is skewed towards those
with endless amounts of money. At the same time, tens of millions of
Americans get ****ty health care because they don't have the amount of
money our system requires to pay for it. Wealthy foreigners head to
other countries, too, where quality care is available, but that
availability is also there for ordinary citizens, too.
