I never win any (medical industry) friends this way, but this is why I would go for a single-provider socialized system.
First advantage: Being MD won't be big buck (they whine about it isn't so and drive off in Audi convertible) - so who'll want to be an MD?
Well people who go into Math, Chemistry, and Physics (for examples) do it as a calling - for the love of doing it. Which do you think will supply better care? A "A" student who doesn't give a crap or a "A-/B+" student really likes to make people well?
And, of course, with more MD/DDS/Etc, we'd not wait as long for an appointment, they could spend more time with each patient, and we could use emergency rooms for real emergencies.
You get the basic picture: the wrong people go into the business for the wrong reasons.

Move to Canada.
Or England.
Or France.
Or Cuba.
Etc.
I find the US opposition to a national health system unbelievable. To me, it's one of the main pillars for a good government.

Their is no money in National/social health care. America is about money, you know that.

Hope you feel better. I get very upset when doctors/nurses tell be things like what you have stated. Make sure it is not bronchitis, because that can actually turn into pneumonia if not treated early. Other than that, I am not going to give you any other medical advice; not a doctor, not going to pretend to be one, even if I did sleep at a Holiday Inn, 2 years ago. 
See, even the strongest of warriors can be brought to their knees by health issues. Keep your chin up.

It is Bronchitis, and the doctor is worried that it will turn to pneumonia.

Yikes. DO NOT over exert yourself. Listen to all they say...please. My friend had bronchitis --> pneumonia. Took him 3 months to get better.

So, by and large, they're going to fine Google for not giving fair and even results from searches. Someone should remind them that paid positioning is how Google makes its money.
They probably know this - so why?
Well - think "Greece" - no not the fries available in the Google cafeteria - but the nation going financially down the tubes. The EU needs to help out Greece by writing off the loans and/or giving them more money. But from where . . . oh, yeah . . . now I get it.
Were I Google, I'd make an example of them: stuff it up your collective croissant - and pull all my resources (i.e., jobs) from the EU - and then - if the EU wishes to block Google, well, we know what that says about the EU.
As for China? I'd just pull the Elephanting plug on them rather than limit searches per their government's recreation of reality.

I agree that an example needs to be made.
The greedy @rsehole yanks who cause the global financial problems that screw up national economies every few years should be lined up against a wall and shot.
That way, the next two or three times they do it (probably within the next 15-20 years), enough of them should be culled that they'll be unlikely to be able to do it again.

Predictable reply. When in doubt, blame the Yanks.
The EU economies going down the toilet are doing so of their own free will and accord.
Even in Europe, someone has to actually do the work to pay all those people who don't wont.
Etc. Etc. Etc.

The problem in Greece isn't people not working: it's people who are working not paying any taxes! 
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

No doubt! Working includes real life drama also, if you are said to follow the rules to get more money or return the money!

There is absolutely no doubt whatsoever that Yankee financial institutions have been responsible for just about every major global economic downturn in the last century.
So I'm not in doubt. The problems faced by countries like Iceland and Greece are a direct result of Yankee greed.

Yup - I have some Kodak super-zoom cameras w/Schneider lenses. Someone worked like a fiend to make so sharp over its entire range.
However - it would have been nice if you'd bailed out (or bought) Kodak's digital camera manufacturing division. It's since been licensed and they're not doing it proud.

Unfortunately, we have no influence on "them". Generally when a business goes down, Union makes sure the employees are protected or offered alternate options. I have no idea what happens next
cheers,

Typical response... It's always the fault of the US.

Can we add the politicians who are protecting them and the companies they near ruined, with our money?

Gets my vote.
Mind you, anything that would reduce the percentage of bent politicians to below 98% gets my vote.

I strongly recommend lamp-posts and some good Manila hemp.
