Michael Moore's "Sicko"

[Not Afraid]

Switzerland has the best healthcare system in the world. They require compulsory private healthcare insurance with options of adding on additional care needs - and their care is excellent and, apparently, is very cost effective.

I'm no expert here and, the only reason I know about this at all is because of Chris' Aunt who lives in Switzerland. She got to recuperate at a spa for 6 weeks after hip-replacement surgery.

Long article here if you are interested.

I think we spend waaaaayyyyy too much time on arguing against socailized medicine and not enough time looking for ways to fix our VERY broken healthcare system.

I see it as arguing against moving from one system with flaws to another system that I beleve has more flaws. It goes along with the quote I posted earlier.

Well, then. Obviously we mustn't do anything at all, and just hope for the best.
