We already knew Michael Moore's socialized medicine Mecca in Cuba was a lie. Castro has been throwing AIDS patients into prisons and concentration camps since the onset of the disease. Now even the Huffington Post is coming out (no pun intended) and owning up that China is not much better.
Why?
Well because the day of reckoning is quickly coming here in the USA. Obamacare is on the way and anyone with a glimmer of common sense knows a disaster is closing in on us. So the Friends of Obama now have to begin to lower expectations, and lower them QUICKLY!
And just like this article is blaming mid-level bureaucrats and not the system itself, I anticipate that's going to be the plan once Obamacare is underway.
"Obamacare is great! It's just some mid-level officials don't get it and are making some poor decisions that are costing people their lives. Don't worry. We can fix it."
You heard it here first, folks.

BEIJING — Wang Pinghe wants the tumor in his liver removed before it becomes life-threatening. But the 28-year-old Chinese villager knows it will be hard to find a hospital that will do the operation – because he has AIDS. In China, hospitals routinely reject people with HIV for surgery out of fear of exposure to the virus or harm to their reputations.
After years of denying AIDS was a problem in China, the country has significantly improved care for patients, but the lingering stigma sets back those advances.
"In my hometown, not a single hospital is willing to operate on people infected with HIV," said Wang, who traveled to Beijing from Runan county in the central province of Henan to try to draw the attention of central authorities to the issue by speaking to the foreign media.
"This is not discrimination by one single person but by an entire country," he told The Associated Press.
The stigma against people with HIV runs especially deep in China, from being unofficially barred from government jobs to being expelled from school.
