In my evening class we have been studying who pays what
for health care around the world, hoping to come up with the perfect solution to
the health care crisis before the end of June. (Still working on it.) One of my
assignments is to watch a PBS Frontline special that I'd like to share with you
if you have not already seen it: Sick
Around the World. It looks at health care systems in five capitalist
democracies (so we're comparing apples to apples), seeing what is working and
what isn't. Interesting stuff, believe it or not. And my final paper was about
the effects of international adoption on family health
care.

Some years earlier I would have suggested Norway as an example of where health care works fairly well.
After having fought for my mother having her lawfully nursing home treatment for a year,I abstain.
We were better 20 years ago than we are now, and that is so sad.
Nevertheless I find it right to not give up, but lift every stone and call every public instance. After all, that's what democracy is about, being allowed speaking one's cause and try changing malfunctions-
