No system is perfect unless you're prepared to spend a small fortune on it. With people living longer and more discoveries in the medical field all the time the costs are going to climb.

But I would never want to be in a system where an insurance company decides whether I live or die. And with my recent throat cancer that would of been the case. The chemo therapy I got involved new drugs that were being tested, I had to sign a waver form, and from what I heard they were not covered for in the US. Even though they are a US drug.
