Video of Greek hospital as a second.five world situation--
By European documentary maker, a look at what medical workers are trying to deal with.
Yves' article, Austerity Kills, states that Greek health care costs have been cut from 10% of GDP down to 6%. This documentary, just made, takes place when spending is at the 6% level; more austerity measures will probably bring even deeper cuts. And graver outcomes.
It's about 9 minutes long, and the subtitles are in white and very difficult to read, but it's worth it. And scary.
This could be what's coming our way, if Austerians gain the full whip hand (and why won't they, since we have two Corporatists to choose between?).
Yves' piece is a do not miss read.
