[PEN-L:1905] France's Bloated Health Care System

While the percentage of GDP spent on health care by France is larger than that
of most European countries it is less than Canada and far less than the US.
The US has inferior life expectancy than either country. If Canada is any
example the cure for the bloat seems to be rough surgery with no anaesthetic
and poor prognosis for the survival of a one tier health system. I'd prefer
to pay for some bloating. It seems to be that "efficiency" is for the most
part a code word for cutbacks in social programmes.
  Cheers, Ken Hanly
