Excellent question, Harvey, for a first or second post. Welcome to the board.

I guess this health care question often turns partisanly political, which is rather eschewed on the boards. This is, after all, a site centrally about astronomy, the universe, and science.

I expect there is plenty of science in the study of health care around the world, which would likely be an acceptable discussion....
