Isn't this rather insulting to people who happen to disagree with your views? 
It also displays a misunderstanding of "socialised medecine" or not 
understanding the articles quoted by Meir & Kat. 

It seems the quip about "socialised medecine" was in relation to Meir's 
article on a doctor being refused residential status in Australia due to 
the "potential" cost of supporting his Down's Syndrome son. (And Kat's 
similar story from Canada regarding a South African doctor being refused 
residency because of his daughter's CP (who he intends to abandon in SA if 
granted residency!!).

Isn't this about immigration policy rather than "socialised medecine"? (Or am 
I missing something!!).

Cheers

PS Is the "kool-ade" you two are drinking the 20 year old malt "type"!! ;-)
