This letter so simplifies American health care that I am compelled to reprint part of it. A Sarah Stringfellow wrote it to the editor of Salt Lake City's "Deseret News," which published it on Wednesday, September 2nd, 2009.
"If you are a veteran or Native American, you receive health care as if you lived under the British national system.
"If you have employer-provided health insurance, it is as if you lived in Germany.
"If you receive medicare, it is similar to the the Canadian 'single-payer' system.
"If you are one of the 50 million uninsured Americans, it is as if you lived in Burundi or Burma, where you either pay cash or get sick and die."
