Hmmm, I dare say the only
industrialized nation which doesn't have socialized medicine is the
United States. I recently had knee replacement surgery. It cost
43,000 dollars. Don't you think the medical community is a little out
of control?

We went to Vietnam in May of this year and as you'd know, it's a Communist
country. There is no free anything. You pay to send your kids to school or
to get any form of medical help and if you don't work, you starve.

Since that's supposed to be 'Communism', I'd like to know what that makes
the US.

All this blather about socialism and communism is totally meaningless. All
sides of politics in most western countries are middle of the road
moderates.
