Kinda like the story of the woman who bled to death in the E.R. while nurses looked on...

Came across another sad story.

I don't know much about hospitals, or the health care field. I only know its expensive in America, and that's because of capitalism. Everything is expensive here because it's a great business, unlike other countries where it's a necessity and kept cheap. It's only expensive here because they can make money, plus the schooling is so damn expensive that Dr.'s, Nurses, those guys who put you to sleep, have to pay off loans that are more expensive than the average home. Plus the guys at the top have to be able to afford that country club membership (elite country club, not the local one) and when you get down to it, it's just the american way.

Very sad, and very ugly...

I wonder if we'll ever get it right??

Joe out...
