I traveled in Eastern Europe in 2006 with a class of MBA students. On of our objectives was to learn about corruption in these societies. We talked to several people from Prague Czech Rep; Bratislava Slovakia; Vienna Austria; Budapest Hungary and a couple from Croatia. All of these people had government run health care. Each person told of the necessity to bribe their doctors in order to receive prompt and proper medical attention.
What we will have here is government rationed health care, a shortage of doctors and if you can afford to grease the skids you can have medical treatment and due to government inefficiency and corruption this will cost us more than our current system. I guarantee it.
