Why is it that Americans always talk about the difficulties of universal health care? So many countries have such policies. Time for the U.S to enter the civillised world and become more democratic socially.

As for China adopting such a policy. Fantastic. But is not going to happen. China is about elites protecting their interests, not helping the poor. The only way it could happen is if the leadership believes that it will save their skins, and unfortunately most are too shortsighted to realise this. Guanxi does not promote intelligent and talented leadership.

And before anyone writes that I hate China, my wife is Chinese, daughter half Chinese, and have lived in China many years. Why is it that the people who love China so much always live overseas?
