Ok. Point taken . But, you still have 105 of the nation , under your own figures,with no health cover. that's 10% of how many million Americans?
So , what exactly happens if I need medical treatment and I am un insured in America? Ok - I understand that Road traffic accident cases are taken in and stablised - but i have a life threatening illness, like cancer, say - or just need a hip replacement. What is going to happen to me then ?
In the UK, I go into triage - I will get treatment when i get to the front of the queue- and my coronary will get treated faster than my arthiritis, unless I go private. So, how does this compare with no insurance across the pond?
