There Are No Americans Who Don't Have Health Care

Dr. Foxx invited the Clawsons into her office and asked them to sit.

She began "Tommy's melanoma is small and can be removed with minor surgery. However I see that you don't have health insurance. Is there another means of payment?"

Sam Clawson explained that he lost his job and that his family was without electricity.

The doctor sat silently for a moment. Her eyes scanned the family and settled on young Judy. She said "Perhaps we can perform the surgery and also put some money in your pocket. There is a girl who needs a new heart very badly."
