Working families with children and no access to health care, like Medicaid or health insurance or HMO, like it was for us back then, have to make a decision or diagnosis if you will whether they can afford to pay for care if it's only a case of flu that can be rode out or could it be peritonitis like in my case.

Kids die for that. Also, a family that has no insurance, but doesn't qualify for Medicaid will react the same way. The Canadian who posted about having two ambulances arrive for an emergency is right. We should have this too.
