Good article. Funny, I've always thought of our system as "socialized medicine", but she has a point - it is single insurer medicine, not socialized medicine. The doctors aren't on salary, they just bill one insurer.
Couple of things she forgot to mention though are not all employers cover medical (which is $56 a month for a single person), but if you're a low income earner, you can get a subsidy. And if you have no income, you pay nothing and your prescriptions are also covered. Other than that, pretty accurate article.
Proud of our health care system (even though I bitch about it periodically)
