[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 582843, member: 1514"] MWM, I think you are very wise to keep up with the news about this but perhaps you are worrying a bit too much. Like IC said, Canada isnt in any better shape than we are, especially concerning health care. Why do you think so many Canadian Dr's flee to the US to practice and very sick patients come down to the states to get health care when they cant stand the long wait periods to get seen in the Canadian health system? Nothing is perfect. They do have some parts good but then that makes other parts very hard. We have to wait this out and see where it falls. I dont know what happened in your state with medicaid. Heck I have no idea what is happening in my state with Medicaid. I hope it is staying the same! I have too many medical bills for anyone to go messing with my medical insurance. I tend to think the consumers wont feel it, only the doctor's will. I know you really dont want to go to Mexico. They are having a drug war down there and the military wont even cross the border without heavy artillery right now. I dont think that is a good retirement community. We were looking for a place to get Cory's tooth pulled down in El Paso and a guy said he could do it right over the border for twenty bucks but he would come get him in a van but he couldnt get out of the van because of the danger. He would pull the tooth in the van! Americans are getting killed on sight. One thing to remember. Economies are cyclical. They run on an 8 to 12 year cycle. Go read a really good book on macro-economics. It explains a whole lot. [/QUOTE]
