So many people don't have a clue how hard doctors and scientists work along the way to get where they are today. I would think if we fell into a socialistic system that we would become just like the Canadians...but then where we would we go for our alternative choice of quicker diagnostics or expert surgeries? ....Mexico? <BR/><BR/>I know that our health system here in America is not perfect and it's weighted down by abuses but if you spend time with anyone under free medicine, like those in Canada or the UK, they will be honest with you and tell you that waiting 4 months or more for a surgery or whatever is no fun. Free medicine is great until your health problem worsens by forced waiting in line, in other words, what good is "free" if you are getting sicker or you die in the process of waiting for your turn?<BR/><BR/>I tell you, I thank God for all the blessings He has given us in the medical and scientific advancements. To me, each person that is relieved from physical pain or those given more years from a new radiation treatment or those that get some mental peace via medication are God's mercy. In each unique situation, big and small, when comfort arrives...it might travel through a pill form or via a laser beam of surgical light, but there is no doubt in my heart that it comes directly from the heavenly source above!LiquidLifeHackerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01949269503629475002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19305198.post-1141239105576555642006-03-01T13:51:00.000-05:002006-03-01T13:51:00.000-05:00Well said.

I hope we don't go the way of the British and Canadian health care systems, or there probably won't be any more magic for our children's children.DRJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18185807047984353497noreply@blogger.com
