When Americans are visiting the UK and they get hurt, do you know what happens? They get medical care and no bill. Why? Because not giving medical care to someone in need is inhuman and asinine.
I believe that is also true of other countries as well. At least, I know someone who was injured while on vacation in France, and they treated her at no charge. I know someone who was deathly ill while in CHINA, and they treated her, at no charge. I know someone who was in motorcycle accident in Australia, and they fixed his teeth. I don't know if they charged him or not, but he sure did have great teeth!

And hey, even fucking RWANDA has universal health care now, with home visits. http://www.pbs.org/now/shows/537/index.html
