Yes this happened in China.
I never went to see a doctor when I had a cold in america, but I have never had a cold cause me so much pain before. Even the common diseases do seem to be more nasty than they were in america. On the other hand the medicines, even the non-traditional ones, are much better than they are in America.
The doctor wanted to do that test because they can make money by doing that. Privitising the healthcare system in this country was a big mistake. Private healthcare systems suck.
Hmmm, I agree that is pretty bad. Either the people in the far east are getting the concept wrong or we have sent a false message of our 'successful' healthcare systems to them, I can't see why whould they want to follow what we have here.
They do it because they see the "wealth" in America (but don't realize that much of it was made with other people's money) and so they try and copy a model that, to them, appears successful. Now they are starting to understand how ****ed up the American model really is.
