Health Revelation

Interesting point made by Sam Armitage on the Weekend Sunrise program recently.

Mark Amor was reporting a story of a man who deliberately robbed a bank for $1 so that he could gain health care for a growth on his chest and back problems while in prison.

Armitage stated rather off the cuff, “we don’t know how lucky we are.”

Amor echoed the sentiments, “If I were sick I know which country I’d prefer to be in”. He went on to call the health care system in America very “broken”.

Top marks to both of them. If only more people genuinely believed this.

Our health care system is not without fault, yet the front line services are world class. We are privileged to have them. Treat them as such and maybe they will work better.

Previous comments on similar lines here and here. Starting to sound like a broken record.
