So the Germans screwed up.  That doesn't mean the Brits and (while not
European) Canadians got it right.

What good is advancement when 1) most citizens need simple
preventative medicine, not expensive, last ditch efforts, and 2) it's
all more or less totally inaccessible for someone without insurance?
Seems to me we shoot for inefficiency because it forces us to develop
all those fancy, ultimately pointless permanent-vegetable life-support
type bullshit that we get to brag about instead of just preventing
people from going terminal to begin with.
