I'm always a bit confused by the way Health Insurance is handled in the States.

That makes two of us. I'm very thankful of our Health Care system here in Canada. It's flawed, I know, but I also know that without it, my Dad would've died about 14 years earlier than he did, when he first got sick when I was 10. And I probably never would've identified and then gotten my own bout with cancer treated. I really feel for the Americans. I don't know how they can manage it if they're not rich.
