On the news this morning I saw a woman shouting at Arlen Specter and asking him why he wasn't upholding the vision of the founding fathers. The debate centered on healthcare, and this particular fellow citizen was worried about our nation becoming quote-unquote Communist Russia. Hey, babe: as brilliant as the founding fathers were, it's important to keep in mind that they wiped their asses with corn husks. PS - Remember how George Washington's non-communist physician treated his case of pneumonia?

Socialized medicine is terrible. The system doesn't have the resources to treat everyone who needs, say, a transplant, nor will it permit those people to pay for a transplant out of their own pocket or with private insurance. It is, however, very good at producing the insitutional equivalent of a shrug.
That being said, the American system in which an ace bandage costs $40 and a CT scan $2200 is ridiculous as well.
The only conclusion I've been able to draw from my experience with both systems is that it's probably a good idea not to get sick.
