Coming from Scotland, the USA does seem very odd in the money grabbing attitude it has to looking after their own citizens. Is it really true that if you don't have money you don't get treated (other than real basic stuff)

Our NHS is certainly not problem free, but if you get ill and that illness causes you to get poor, at least you have no worries in gaining access to some of the best medical care available. Just seems a little more civilised.
