> My dad fell on some ice in Sweden and needed extensive work to rebuild his shattered ankle. He's got a bunch of pins in his foot, which he seems to be somewhat proud of. The Swedish docs did a pretty good job. When he returned to the states, he wanted to square all his affairs so he contacted the hospital. His bill for his medical care was approximately 50 bucks. In the US, that won't get you a band-aid.
Yep!! That's socialized health care!! Government's all up in it, and what you get is excellent health care, and very reasonabe prices!! But what youi DON'T get is multibillion$ FOR PROFIT health care insurance, and stupidly expensive health care! That's for U.S.!! Ain't it fin? :-(
