Every time I comment on the sad state of health care in the nation below us I get called a socialist. In order to avoid any harm to my self esteem I have decided to quote an American expert on the American Health Care system.

CHICAGO – The U.S. health care system is “a dysfunctional mess” and politicians who insist otherwise look ignorant, according to a medical journal essay by a prominent ethicist at the National Institutes of Health.

If a politician declares that the United States has the best health care system in the world today, he or she looks cluelessrather than patriotic or authoritative,” Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel wrote in Wednesday's Journal of the American Medical Association.
