Deaska,
    You have all right to poke fun at us stupid Americans for the rotten 
state of our health insurance system.  I'd much rather have a socialized 
system like yours.  But this all-too-greedy nation will never wise up and 
guarantee health care to all its citizens.  The doctors, pharmeceutical 
companies, and the insurance companies have a profitable racket here that 
they refuse to give up, so the people suffer.  Ah ... the glories of the 
free market, huh?  Modern capitalism at its pest, huh?  Not a chance.  All 
we've got is another case of the rich screwing the poor.  No surprize that 
it's the poorest 25% of the people in America that don't have insurance.  
The rich do, and (no surprize) they're the ones getting fat off the 
current system.  I wish that I could explain why America is the only 
nation in the industrialized world that doesn't guarantee free access to 
health care to all its citizens.  I wish I could.

    Cheers~!
