i'm sad for all Americans today

The epidemiologist in me has comment on the defeat of the public option today. For more, please check this article at The Huffington Post.

I always tell my European friends America has the best public health schools in the world, and the irony is the health of the American public is secondary to political and corporate interests. What happened today saddens me greatly. C'est la vie. God bless the NHS, that's all I have to say.

We Americans will wake up one day...of course it will be too late.

The conservatives, both on the Democratic & Republican sides, will have turned us into a Third World economy with Third World health care.
