Despicable Slanders of Eurpean Health Systems

[My family has experienced both British and Italian medicine during study and work times over there and knows full well as any who is honest in comparison that one is more likely to get better health coverage there at a lower cost. We have personally been most fortunate in NYC as a family, but know of too many horror stories here. Dave Rogers, University Professor at Cornell and head of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation as well as dean of two medical schools along the way in his career despised the older AMA and other medical vested interests that so savaged our medical system and left it wounded in comparison with our competitors in Europe and elsewhere. Lying by the vested right wing interests is the name of the attack game against universal and affordable medical care here. Ed Kent]

Health Care Excuses

as well or better than the U.S. system, while costing far
less money.
