    Health Care in England
    Are the seniors citizens tales of social health insurance in England true Or do you think they are exaggerating They assert. All people over age 59, cannot have heart surgery, stenting, bypass etc. Is this true

    Maybe not all but with socialized health care they can and do determine age as a factor in if you will receive surgery.
    Also in many cases it takes months or even a year to get surgery. I know a guy that died waiting for surgery in New Zealand.

    The stimulus package that Obama passed even had a thing in it that said with the socialized health care they want to start here in the US would have a board to oversee who THEY FEEL should get surgery.
    You are older it counts against you.
