I wonder what kind of health care insurance Iraqis and Afghanis enjoy?
Health care is a huge issue. The economy is a huge issue. GLBT rights is a huge issue. But as long as we, as a nation, are continuing these wars in the Middle East, we are wrong, and it's hard to do the right things until you stop doing the wrong things. The war(s) is/are still the main issue to me. Like the physicians code says, "First, do no harm." Let's end this war. Our national adventure of death in the Middle East costs more than health care.

2. Stupid wanted to set up private insurance in Iraq
until the military that's the one thing they'd never put up with.

Iraq has national, universal health care. It's undersupplied, of course, thanks to the neocon dream of expanding the Utopia we Americans enjoy.

Afghanistan has little health care outside the cities. The infant and maternal mortality statistics are horrible.

4. It’s bloody awful
when the country that spends the most on health must compare itself to war-torn pestholes before its own health care system can look greatly superior, init?
