That was a good read. I'm just happy to have moved to Norway. Great healthcare at half the cost, comes out of my taxes. In the U.S. tens of thousands of paper pushers get to share in the cost of your healthcare. Yes, it's nice that people have jobs and everything, but couldn't they picking up litter or doing something that adds value to society?

And yes, people over here think the U.S. system is bizarre, greedy, unfair and immoral. You'd think that now that everyone knows better, the U.S. would just fess up that the current situation has never worked well and throw out health insurance altogether.
