I'm not saying that the US health care dosen't have its problems... It does, huge ones in fact. but there are many ways that this can be fixed rather then soicaling health care. What I mean by best healthcare is not having to wait for months for simple tests or life saving type care or drugs. Women from Canada come to the US almost every day to give birth to there kids cause there own hospitals don't have room for them. People in the UK pull there own teeth, etc, etc.. as for people suffering in the US because they can't afford the hospital bills? NO ONE.. and I repete NO ONE can be turned away even if they have no money to pay with from getting health care in the US. It may not be the top of the line care that people who can pay may get but its not as bad as it sounds. Sure there are cases of people being dumped in the street here and there but its not common place. Most people that can't pay get the care they need for free.

This I agree with 100% it is socialized and most of it sucks. Our vets should have the very best care we are able to give them and there not getting it.
Some of the articals I linked to have other ways to fix health care in the US btw, some are good. I like the idea of health savings accounts myself.
