>> Well my relatives in Norway, Sweden and Germany find you guys to be amusing for wanting to increase the cost of health care here. Especially in not covering everyone such as they do.

Do they find it amusing that the American system of health care has given them most of the innovations in medicine they have seen in their own countries over the last 50 years? Often at little or no cost to THEIR countries?

Are they concerned that if we stop innovating their own health care will be adversely affected by it? Do they realize that if America adopts a system similar to theirs the innovation will slow and that the entire world will suffer as a result?

Do they comprehend that when the US innovates their is a cost associated with it and if we stop paying that cost then either the innovation will slow or they will have to chip in?
