Yes, I am Canadian. I wonder what percentage
here is. In the United States you probably have
a much more varied situation from State to State
in health care. I think that our government
is much more centralized in health care policy
and of course the population is much smaller
and more homogeneous. The North is a different
story.I am not sure what it is like in the US regarding
senior citizen support and care. We are led to
believe here that we are the best country in
the world, or close to, when it comes to health
care. But I don't believe it. What I have seen
is that if you are rich you get to choose
superiour services, and that applies to
politicians. The socialist dream of public
health care is a cherished ideological dream
which escapes harsh monetary and social realities.P.S. What is Sunnymead?
