Here in the UK we have a body that governs all advertising on Insurance and financial products. Seems the US could do with a governing body too!

Nice to know America is the only first world country. I live in Australia
where we have universal coverage and it’s not perfect I pay $100 a month for private
care which let’s me have a non- urgent elective operation within 2 weeks ( the free public
system is more like 12 months).. If I am in an Accident I go to the free system and it ‘s that free. Broken leg or severe injuries I pay nothing but the medication once I leave hospital. As for the
best research only coming out of America it was an Australian team
that developed the cervical cancer vaccine.

Hey Ben, I noticed that you mentioned in your list Canada. Well, I do happen to have learned a thing or two about that recently. As I understand it the people who use the universal health care there have to get on long lines. I also hear that people in Canada that want better quality health care come to the U.S. and pay for it. Wonder why those that can pay would opt for that instead of the usual?

If you think you’re better off outside the US, then please, go ahead and stay where you are and get your “free” health care. Our system generates most of the leading edge medical R&D for all you 2nd and 3rd world countries anyway. We have the best hospitals and doctors anywhere. Of course we do spend a lot of money on wasted “wellness” visits. This needs to change if we’re ever going to be able to offer “health care” at a reasonable price. Everyone these days thinks they will live forever, always be able to bicycle and surf without pain, get monster boners anytime they want at any age, and eat any fatty crap they want, without raising their cholesteral. WAKE UP, America. Good news: At least we don’t live in…UK, or France, or Canada, or Australia, or New Zealand, Sweden, Denmark, Germany…. We’re still doing better than any of them.
But we need to quit babying all the pansies out there.
