I agree with Kent. Our US healthcare system is not perfect but I don't believe it is as bad as the majority of you think. My first wife was in the hospital at one time for three months and the majority of the time in Intensive Care. The hospital bill was over a million dollars. It cost us not one dime because costs were covered by our HMO and Medicare. I have medicare/HMO and medical services provided by the VA. I have no complaints.
