What's this?

Just looking at the multitude


of studies over the years which show our cancer, heart attack, stroke, survival rates etc are on par (at worst and often better) with the rest of the developed world.

You have google, not going to link 100s of articles for you. I don’t think even the harshest critics of our system suggest that people in the us with employer sponsored insurance receive bad health care.... it’s just complicated and expensive

I’m curious, Do you think you receive poor health care?
