I hate to sound like a crazy person here, but I wonder how much american money is involved in this.
I hate sounding like one of those people who is looking for the GOP boogey-man in everything, but the timing on this is too good. Most americans' experience with socialized healthcare comes from anecdotes from canada, and a lot of it is incorrect at best.
Even if this is one single case that involves a total asshole, I know that every talk radio host is going to (or already has) jump on this as evidence that socialized healthcare of any sort is a failure and a sham.
