John Stossel : "Better" Health Care?
I don't have much respect for the media; however, I can give John Stossel an exception...
At Townhall.com, John Stossel discusses "free" health care:
"President Obama says government will make health care cheaper and better. But there's no free lunch.
In England, health care is 'free' -- as long as you don't mind waiting. People wait so long for dentist appointments that some pull their own teeth. At any one time, half a million people are waiting to get into a British hospital. A British paper reports that one hospital tried to save money by not changing bedsheets. Instead of washing sheets, the staff was encouraged to just turn them over."
