    Your opinion on health insurance costs please

    I'll try to give a Canadian perspective on this issue (not sure if we've had one yet). I've heard a lot of Americans call our system "socialist" healthcare, but up here we just refer to it as universal. Our system would be very similar to Englands. Each province has a Ministry of Health...

    I'll probably play the bass for a while, since it seems to be performing well- in the meantime I'll look for a repair tech in the area to fix it.

    Jedi Bass- Yes. I Work in a small hospital up here in Canada. My friends place in TN is over by Clarksville. When I go there for my other passion, wild Turkey hunting... I barely had time to sleep, but I'll see what I can do.
