It’s great that you have a space to vent and all, but it would probably be better to a) tone down the rhetoric and b) actually read the article before posting. Do what you want, but that’s pretty sound advice.

An American lawyer prefers a clinic in Denver instead of the one in Rome; therefore, the Italian health care is bad.

And by the way, just because Italian health care is free or cheap to tax-paying Italians doesn't mean that it is free to Americans. In fact, it could easily cost more for an insured American that the care in the US. Ever thought of that?<br/><br/>This is probably the stupidest blog entry I've ever seen on this blog.

Of course, we all know how honest and trustworthy this guy is. He says that the only place he could be treated is in Denver. Of course, we all know how honest and trustworthy this guy is.
