Cancer survival rates are not very good in Britain.

That would tell you something if cancer were the only serious/terminal disease. However there are many terminal diseases.

Add them all up, and you get a different picture.

I have a question about this new health care system...why are so many unions and various other groups being granted exemptions?

Also, why are they seeking exemptions?

Sorry for being lazy and asking the group, but I don't have the energy (or gumption) to look it up for myself.

Because the health insurance companies in Maine won't agree to pay out 80% of what they collect. They just can't survive by sucking 20% off the top.

All the more reason to put the doggies off the public tit of insurance premiums.
