Open-heart surgery in the States costs in the neighborhood of $200k and up. Here you get it free, and if it's am emergency procedure it gets done immediately, if not you get booked in, waiting times vary from place to place.

Is it really "free"? No, it's built into our taxes of course, but we don't have to fork out a couple of hundred K for a hospital stay every time we get a major medical situation in the family. And don't try to deny it, I've known way too many Amercans that have cried the blues over their HUGE medical bills, several of them webmasters.
