Tony:

The answer to your question - Where is the U.S. in the developing countries’ healthcare improvement plan? - is the same place the U.S. has been for the past six years: mired in Iraq.

Even if the United States had the money to join in such an effort (which we don’t, because of Iraq), we have neither the credibility based on healthcare reform efforts at home (of which there have been none because the political focus has been on - you guessed it - Iraq) or abroad (as our showpiece for nation-building, Iraq is an abysmal failure - why would any developing country put their trust in us?).

And even if all of that weren’t true, our bellicose and ham-handed foreign policy (again, all centered on Iraq) has so alienated us from the rest of the world that I doubt we could give a U.S. approach to healthcare away, even if it were free and effective.

Jeff, you make some excellent points. No offense to our northern neighbor, but isn’t it ironic that Canada is a part of this, and we aren’t?

Hi, just wondered if you had visited this new website?
