Both kids came over last night, thinking they were supporting my wife (who broke her leg in two places last Tuesday and STILL hasn't been able to find an orthopedic surgeon to see her, four days later, and so is just lying in bed making phone calls), and really what the kids wound up doing was relieving me.
The U.S. needs to nationalize all healthcare now. Not just singlepayer; nationalized DELIVERY. "In network," "yes, we take your Medicare but we're not signed up with your SECONDARY insurance," "our clinic only does ankles, not legs, so you need two surgeries to repair one injury," etc. is not only illogical, but evil.
