| The
French system : an American view (#3) |
This column, published
in the International Herald Tribune (Aug.14, 2007), emphasizes
the main advantages of the French system over the American system.
For once that the French do something clearly better, the webmaster
does not feel chauvinistic about quoting it.... Read my column
"Socialized
medicine : give me a break!". |

DID YOU KNOW THAT....? Reporting about how difficult it is for President Obama to pass a Health Bill, The Times wrote (Aug.14,2009) : "In the battle over which country, the UK and the US, has the better health system ..... the answer to the question is : France"! And the French live older : in 2009, life expectancy at birth was 4 years longer for a Frenchman than for an American (Source : World Population Data Sheet, Washington DC) !
