4. No, our health care bites the big one

Edited on Tue Jul-10-07 10:31 AM by supernova

We are smart. We are capable. We are compassionate (some of us anyway). But you wouldn't know it by our rapacious health care system.

edit: The surprise in Sicko isn't that Cuba is 39. It's that we are only marginally better than Cuba. Considering our vast wealth and resources, we should, SHOULD be in the top 10, top 5 even. But we are not. That's the point of the Cuba segment. If you missed that point, you deserve to be stupid.
