From my perspective the problem has never been the quality of the actual heath care in America, but the fact that all the infrastructure from heath insurance and the government seems to slow down the process.
To me it has never been a "heath care crisis" but instead a "Health care
insurance crisis", and there is most definitely a difference between the two.
I live very close to the
Mayo Clinic, which has been at the top of the US and World Report best hospitals for the last twenty years or so. From what I've seen the US is one of the best countries to come to if you need some care for the vast majority of diseases and ailments. When people get seriously sick they come to the United States and quite often to the Mayo Clinic, I get to see plenty of people from other countries constantly coming and going.
Since the beginning of this health care bill the Mayo Clinic has opposed it every step of the way, and I have even heard rumors that Mayo may shut its doors for good once the bill goes into effect, but I cannot confirm that last bit.
To me, if the experts at Mayo, one of the worlds leading hospitals, don't think this bill is the best for our country, well. . . I'm inclined to take their word for it.
