OT The present health insurance system in the US is an abomination. 40% of health care costs go towards administration. That's more than 4 times more than what "nationalized" systems spend. Unless we are able to find a free market solution that does not waste almost half of the health care dollar, a nationalized system is a better alternative.

now you've really hit on something there, Grace <g/ng>

>>she'd have the illusion that it was "free", <<

I don't think any one is free of this desire in one area or another. We know we can't get something for nothing, but we still want to be lied to ... why is that??

How many folks are on pills needlessly, instead of taking responsibility for their own health?? Just think if they had to pay for the pills, too ...
