All over the World, most people want publicly financed Healthcare Systems.

[JanMichael]

23 nations and almost 20,000 people surveyed. One interesting stat: Only 3 nations had over 50% say their system is in "Good Shape" instead of "Crisis". Who were they?

I'd rather you see it yourself. What do you make of this?

The kicker though is this:

There is a strong consensus in all but three of the 23
countries (Indonesia, Switzerland and the United States) that
health care systems should be publicly rather than privately
financed. In Canada, 79 percent take this view, compared
with only 11 percent who believe these expenses should be
paid for by individuals, either through private insurance or
out of their own pockets; another seven percent volunteer
that both approaches are equally important.

Interesting, eh?

1. cant understand your headline: but good kicker nontheless

pls devote words to explaining the headline? thanks

PS unicef last month... "over half the worlds kids are either {was it hungry or starving? i forget which}, down with a fatal disease, or orphans".

The globalized world is a shambles.

2. Good suggestion.

I tried to jam too much info in the subject line.

Does the new subject line make more sense?
