A second class medical service for second class people...

I'm not really sure that "opponents of universal health care" is really a fair way of putting it. Most of the doubters seem to think it'd be a good idea, but it would just be impossible, because Americans could never manage to run something like that without screwing it up, unlike everyone else.

I think they are needlessly underestimating their country's ability to get things right, when it sets its mind to it. I'm sure when America actually gets round to it it'll come up with a system that other people will admire and even wish to emulate.
