Newfoundland Premier Comes to United States for Heart Surgery

I saw something interesting toady. Premier Danny Williams from Newfoundland, Canada is coming to the United States to receive heart surgery. I guess even those leading Canada want to escape the disastrous experiment known as socialized medicine. We have the best healthcare system and the best doctors in the world. So again, why do we want a shoddy version of what is in Canada? They don't even trust the system to work for a population smaller than that of California. So how on earth is it going to work for us? Reform is needed but the current legislation is so heinous that it is clearly not the answer. The article: http://www.nationalpost.com/news/story.html?id=2510700
