[/quote]There's a reason why a good amount of people in Canada come down to the states to get all sorts of operations/surgeries... [/quote]

Just a random thought - how can Canadians afford these operations? I'm not making fun of your post - how can they afford what we Americans can't? Something is still wrong with the picture.

Also, my biggest objection to the insurance companies is that they tell doctors what medicines they can prescribe and procedures they can perform. This is called "practicing medicine without a license" and I believe it's a felony. However, I learned from the Michael Moore movie "Sicko" that President Nixon allowed this whole mess to start (health care for profit). Good luck to us all...

Hillary is not the health care person she was as first lady. She's all cozied up with the insurance lobby now.
