China to Provide Health Care for All

China understands that it has to control costs of medical care and is forging ahead to build health care clinics all over the country.
Quote
Premier Wen Jiabao has made boosting social security for lower-income Chinese a priority, pledging to address concerns about education, affordable housing and jobs.
The government plans to build thousands of county and township hospitals and ensure that each of the country's nearly 700,000 villages has a clinic. It also seeks to expand state health insurance, control prices for essential medicines, and reduce unnecessary prescriptions.

How about we foment a little national competition. We can't let China get universal health care before us anymore than we could let Russia beat us to the moon. Sheesh!

From Flora Thompson's "Lark Rise to Candleford" "A little later, remembering man's earthly origin, "dust thou art and to dust thou shalt return," they liked to fancy themselves bubbles of earth. When alone in the fields, with no one to see them, they would hop, skip, and jump, touching the ground as lightly as possible... and crying, "We are bubbles of earth! Bubbles of earth! Bubbles of Earth!" "
