Hell yes.
I spent last night (all night) in a hospital with my 4 year old grandson while he got some stitches from a fall he had. Just a few, but in his lip, so a plastic surgeon did the stitches.
Took awhile, but I was damn thankful to be in the greatest country in the world, with first world, world class medical treatment readily available. There are thousands (millions?) of small children who die of simple infections all the time. We are blessed in this country.
I was also struck by the fact that probably 70 percent of the people in the ER were non-American. The staff almost all spoke spanish. I have no issue with this. Hurt kids are hurt kids, but I am pretty sure those folks are glad they live in the greatest country on the planet.
Anybody who isnt proud to be an American..Get. The. frick. Out. Now.
