A Word to the Wise: Don't Get Sick! In the United States of America, health care is a thorny issue that divides the nation. Our cost per person is approximately twice that of all other industrialized countries. Any attempts to try to contain the costs or change the system are met with fierce resistance. The problem is not going away so let us hope that we can begin to have a responsible dialog and work together to find solutions. (Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha! Sorry, I can't help being cynical. Oh, by the way, please remember: Don't give sick!)
