		<description>We British find it hard to understand why Americans are so against state run health care. I have seen healthcare on both sides of the pond. I had a doctor in the US tell me I needed my  appendix out when I got a pain in my side. I was sure this was not the case as I had suffered before with the same problem and it was a torn muscle. But he insisted I needed my appedix removed.  
I took a risk and walked out the hospital and got a plane back to the UK. As soon as I got of the plane I went to the nearest hospital (the beauty of the NHS you can go to any hospital). As I suspected I had torn a muscle again. 
I can only guess the hospital in the US wanted to cut me open for the money. Never again will I ever see a doctor that earns more money from me for the more he does. As greed will always be a factor.

		<description>Very interesting facts, i think that more studies have to be done before they can think about this, is not an easy task to spend so much of the budget and have some other important matters to take care of.

		<description>You didn&#039;t get the gist of the article regarding government run medical programs and that they ration health care.
No matter which (government or private) system is around, they will ration care.

The government?
You and I have no choice. Complain all you want - unless you get a Senator on your side, you are sunk.

Private? At least you can sue them.

You haven&#039;t even heard a bit in the media about what the  &quot;non-Obama&quot; crowd has suggested - things like elimination of illegal aliens from eligibility, tort reform, pre-existing conditions and national health care standards to let private health care providers compete across state lines.

Haven&#039;t heard of that? That&#039;s because reach of those subjects was killed in committee by the people that are still supporting Obama.

We need an evolutionary change to hone our system into as close a version of perfection as we can - we don&#039;t need a sledgehammer to destroy what has worked in the past.

		<description>This is the second part of my comment on healthcare reform.

Patients should have direct access to their healthcare providers.  Some people claim universal health coverage will put the government in between the doctor and patient, where in reality, it is the insurance company that is between the doctor and patient.  I was diagnosed with Grave&#8217;s Disease last year, and consequently, had to undergo tests and see specialists.  Before I went to a lab for blood work, or before I went to a specialist, I called the insurance company to ensure that the procedure or doctor was covered under my plan.  It took a lot of effort to understand everything my policy would pay for.  To pay for universal healthcare, everyone should pay a percentage of his/her income; whether he/she makes $10,000 a year or $100,000 a year.  We cannot continue the present healthcare system.  It will cost more and more each year, and more importantly, more people will not be insured and will not have access to healthcare providers.</description>
