Last spring my dental hygienist told me that some rural Idahoans in
our area refuse to accept charity to get their children's teeth
fixed. I wouldn't be surprised if they are also too proud to accept
government money for their children's health insurance. This sounds
like the ancient practice of child sacrifice to Yahweh and other
tribal gods.

Greetings:
Yet another sign of our failed health care system.
I just got back from two countries that have dentists in every
school. Critics of socialized medicine spread anecdotes about long
waiting lines, but surveys show that is not the case. Poor American
kids sometimes wait 6 months for dental surgery and two of them have
died waiting for help.
