This article presents information on various international socio-political issues with a touch of humor. Keeping the faith-based initiatives in mind, it is opined that to cut down the escalating costs of medical care, it is suggested to buy up inner-city hospitals and turn them into profit centers-- no doctors, no nurses, no fancy-shmancy machines and best of all, no messy malpractice suits. Just the blessed healing power of prayer, provided 24 hours a day at bedside by recovering drug addicts as part of their therapy.
