I won't touch the socialized medicine issue without having personally
researched it.  But I will say that the Reader's Digest is not 
an unbiased source of information.  Sure, it's well-researched, but
everyone learns the first day of a stats course that stats can be used to
support any argument, if you are good enough at it.  As a criminologist
I cringe when I read their articles concerning the CJS system.
It's a conservative magazine, and the articles ahould be taken in that
context.
