I think it’s interesting that when he had his chest pains, he went to Hawaii, where, according to this New York Times article, which, since 1974, ”...has required all employers to provide relatively generous health care benefits to any employee who works 20 hours a week or more.” Then on his radio show last Monday (3/22/10) he seemed to back down from his threat/promise to move to Cost Rica if the Health Care bill passed. But he said, “Once all this gets implemented, I am going there for my health care.” (as quoted in politicususa). Interestingly enough, Costa Rica also has a government-run healthcare system, according to International Living.
“Foreigners living in Costa Rica can join the CCSS by paying a small monthly fee—based on income—or they can buy health insurance from the state monopoly Instituto de Seguro Nacional (INS), valid with over 200 affiliated doctors, hospitals, labs, and pharmacies in the private sector.”
