“America's health care system is neither healthy, caring, nor a system.”

“America does not have a health-car system. We have a sick-care system... It's a stretch to use the word "system" to describe, as this word denotes organization.”

“America's health care system is second only to Japan, Canada, Sweden, Great Britain, well ... all of Europe. But you can thank your lucky starts we don't live in Paraguay!”

“In any case, seeing care for certain groups as an excessive cost reflects an arguably perverse way of thinking about health care in terms of human need. [...] In other words, care for the sick is an economic burden only in health care systems where profit is the bottom line and public services are underfunded and politically unsupported - that is, systems in which only market logic is considered legitimate.”

“The Universal Laws of Health Care Systems:1. "No matter how good the health care in a particular country, people will complain about it"2. "No matter how much money is spent on health care, the doctors and hospitas will argue that it is not enough"3. "The last reform always failed”

“In my opinion, our health care system has failed when a doctor fails to treat an illness that is treatable.”
