it is too light on the real problems of socialized medicine (lack of research, expense, waiting times etc.).
I was talking to a french guy at work about it and he said that the claim that house calls are free is far from the truth as well. They do cost a lot of money and the government only refunds a portion of the cost unless you have private insurance (those Americans in Pars seemed to be very well off).

Still, the treatment of uninsured Americans is really, really pathetic and needs to change and the problems posed by universal health care are slight in comparison.
