health insurance

[Richard Brekne]

Agreed... and I read right but wrote my own post pooly... I mean to suggest that if
you simply didnt bother with any health insurance but put away 600 bucks a month on
your own then....etc. etc.... course the hitch is you gotta stay healthy for the
first 12 - 15 years or so.

I still like the Norwegian system better... we may have a few delays to deal with...
and they always seem unreasonable when you are the one having to wait... but
everybody is covered. Nobody has to live with out that security because of the cost.
