Ilaine -

I grew up on Air Force bases all over the country. I was just a kid, but I remember the medical services as being "adequate". Certainly, the experiences I've had in the past couple of years at Cedars Sinai have been superior.

I've also had medical care in Sweden (excellent) and Mexico (adequate to sub-standard)

But I don't know if this is germane. I don't think anyone is suggesting that we nationalize the healthcare system. Nor is anyone trying to take premium healthcare away from those who can afford to pay for them. Well, I suppose some people may want to do that, but I haven't heard anyone propose it.
