In case you missed it, the Daily show had a field day with Obama between the fiasco on the Health Care web site and the NSA spying scandals.
BTW, I just found out that if you live in Panama, not only can you get an international healthcare policy that is attractive, but you can opt out of Obamacare entirely without penalty. Another reason to think about moving here.


Could you provide more information on the international healthcare policy?
Thanks.
Tom, I enjoy your newsletter but please do not mislead any readers with your healthcare remark. I was led astray by International Living emails and cancelled my medicare/blue cross when I moved here five years ago. at the age of 74. I learned the hard way after my 75th birthday two months later that nobody 75 or over can get health insurance in Panama except a hospital plan like what I have at Chiriqui Hospital. It only copays 70 percent for surgery and I will have to pay $2500 for the metal implant for the knee replacement i am saving up for. I had to wait a full year after enrollment to have painful kidney stones removed. Regards, Elizabeth Gerhardt
