They are fleeing because we have the finest health system in the world. Why India you ask? Because it’s all been outsourced.

And as long as these folks vote republiCANT we will never get universal health care, ala Canada.
I would never go to India for medical treatment...clik my heals ‘there is no place like home’.
The time has come for the USA to commit to a national health care system.

As a result of predatory pricing, millions of Americans have been priced out of the healthcare market, but greedy doctors, insurance companies, hospitals and drug companies arent seriously worried, yet. Sooner or later though, their going to feel the squeeze. Maybe then they will allow us to have Universal Health Care.

I live outside of the wonderful USA and have for some 20+ years. I just found out that my ‘merican health insurance has decided that ‘overseas’ medical treatment is no longer covered… but they sure keep sending the bills wanting me to pay them for non-existent coverage… wonderful!!
