>Evidence from around the world is that government plans are likely to be cheaper and more effective. And social security works today... "European Vacation" is a real problem. The future is Greece, Italy and Spain.

But Greece spends noticeably less on health care and its system is in the top 20 of the world. Greece does have economic problems, but the ~3% of their GDP they spend on health care is almost laughable. There might be some "encouragement-fees" for doctors necessary, but overall they seem to be fine. disclaimer: I am not Greek and the rumors about corruption for services are just that: rumors. edit: Not saying everything is dandy, there are some dark sides of some systems (insurance obligations etc.)
