Medicine in Other Countries

Go see the link below and watch the video - it is a real eye-opener!

T.R. Reid - Sick Around The World - You HAVE to watch these videos! This guy goes to England, Japan, Germany, etc. (each clip is about 11 minutes - so you could catch one during the commercials for each half hour of TV you watch!). Just click on the part to the right of this Link that says 'Watch the Full Program Online'. It is a real eye-opener of how broke our sick care system really is! Thousands of people go bankrupt in this country from medical bills! When he asks doctors and administrators in these other countries how many people go broke there, they say "nobody! We've never heard of such a thing!" You might prefer to speed read this interview with T.R. Reid which gives a summary of the video program here.

An interesting discussion of the politics of medical care can also be found at Wikipedia.

But this will never happen in this country due to the power of the rich. The only thing that will happen will be to siphon more of your money to the rich who control the medical/pharmaceutical/chemical industries of the world. Also see Med Sys - Shady History
