\"logo\"Autorom tohto \u010dl\u00e1nku z roku 1991 je Sergej Mle\u010din, b\u00fdval\u00fd disident, ktor\u00e9ho vycestovanie zo Sovietskeho zv\u00e4zu dlh\u00e9 roky po\u017eadovala svetov\u00e1 \u017eidovsk\u00e1 verejnos\u0165 i ofici\u00e1lni predstavitelia americkej vl\u00e1dy. V j\u00fani 1988 dostali man\u017eelia Mle\u010dinovci vycestovacie povolenie. Av\u0161ak pomery, na ktor\u00e9 narazili v USA, od z\u00e1kladov zmenili ich politick\u00e9 n\u00e1zory, tak\u017ee sa napokon vr\u00e1tili do Sovietskeho zv\u00e4zu.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Ja by som v\u0161ak chcel venova\u0165 pozornos\u0165 jedn\u00e9mu pod\u013ea m\u00f4jho n\u00e1zoru najne\u013eudskej\u0161iemu aspektu trhov\u00e9ho donucovania – platen\u00e9mu zdravotn\u00edctvu, ktor\u00e9 znamen\u00e1, \u017ee pr\u00e1vo na \u017eivot nie je garantovan\u00e9 a \u010dlovek si ho mus\u00ed zabezpe\u010di\u0165 s\u00e1m. K\u00fdm nezamestnanos\u0165, ve\u013emi drah\u00e9 b\u00fdvanie a platen\u00e9 \u0161kolstvo znamenaj\u00fa, \u017ee \u010dlovek nem\u00e1 zaru\u010den\u00e9 pr\u00e1vo na d\u00f4stojn\u00fd \u017eivot, platen\u00e1 a mimoriadne drah\u00e1 lek\u00e1rska starostlivos\u0165 znamen\u00e1, \u017ee sa nezaru\u010duje ani pr\u00e1vo na \u017eivot ako tak\u00fd. Na fyzick\u00e9 pre\u017eitie.<\/p>\n

Tento spolo\u010densk\u00fd mechanizmus funguje tvrdo a spo\u013eahlivo ako gilot\u00edna. \u017divot a zdravie s\u00fa pre ich majite\u013ea takou v\u00fdznamnou a autarkickou hodnotou, \u017ee je ochotn\u00fd da\u0165 za ne ve\u013emi vela, ak nie v\u0161etko. Toto si ve\u013emi dobre uvedomuj\u00fa lek\u00e1ri a zdravotn\u00edcke organiz\u00e1cie, ktor\u00e9 s prihliadnut\u00edm na to, \u017ee z\u00e1kladn\u00fdm z\u00e1konom je dosiahnutie maxim\u00e1lneho zisku, ceny za lek\u00e1rsku starostlivos\u0165 a lieky vyh\u00e1\u0148aj\u00fa do astronomick\u00fdch v\u00fd\u0161ok. Ceny s\u00fa st\u00e1le vy\u0161\u0161ie a \u010faleko predstihuj\u00fa rast miezd.<\/p>\n

Pr\u00edkladov je, ko\u013eko len chcete: stanovenie obsahu cukru v krvi – 40 dol\u00e1rov, zaplombovanie zuba – 420 dol\u00e1rov, umel\u00fd chrup z najlacnej\u0161ej plastickej l\u00e1tky – 1200 dol\u00e1rov, hemodial\u00fdza – od 700 do 900 dol\u00e1rov t\u00fd\u017edenne, komplikovan\u00e1 oper\u00e1cia vn\u00fatorn\u00fdch org\u00e1nov – od desa\u0165tis\u00edc do stotis\u00edc dol\u00e1rov. Niekto m\u00f4\u017ee bez mihnutia oka zaplati\u0165 povedzme 200 tis\u00edc dol\u00e1rov za oper\u00e1ciu, in\u00fd m\u00e1 len tis\u00edc, \u010do znamen\u00e1, \u017ee oper\u00e1ciu nikto robi\u0165 nebude – so v\u0161etk\u00fdmi z toho vypl\u00fdvaj\u00facimi d\u00f4sledkami.<\/p>\n

To nie s\u00fa slov\u00e1, ale fakty.<\/p>\n

Rok 1989, Nashville, Tennessee. V programe miestneho telev\u00edzneho spravodajstva sa na obrazovke zjavuje nariekaj\u00faca \u017eena. Nezaujat\u00fd hlas koment\u00e1tora oznamuje div\u00e1kom, \u017ee m\u00e1 rakovinu prsn\u00edka a mus\u00ed sa ur\u00fdchlene podrobi\u0165 oper\u00e1cii. Nemocnica, do ktorej ju lek\u00e1r poslal, ju neprijala, preto\u017ee nem\u00e1 sumu potrebn\u00fa na zaplatenie oper\u00e1cie. Nielen to, pracovn\u00edci spr\u00e1vy nemocnice obtelefonovali v\u0161etky ostatn\u00e9 kliniky v meste a upozornili ich, aby ju neprijali. Zapla\u0165, alebo zomri!<\/p>\n

T\u00fato trhov\u00fa z\u00e1sadu som poc\u00edtil na vlastnej ko\u017ei. Do Ameriky som pricestoval na z\u00e1klade pozv\u00e1nky na bezplatn\u00e9 lie\u010denie, no musel som prehltn\u00fa\u0165 ve\u013emi trpk\u00fa pilulku, ke\u010f mi lek\u00e1r ozn\u00e1mil, \u017ee pozvanie bolo len politickou akciou. O nieko\u013eko mesiacov nesk\u00f4r sa uk\u00e1zalo, \u017ee sa budem musie\u0165 podrobi\u0165 transplant\u00e1cii obli\u010diek, za \u010do odo m\u0148a \u017eiadali 150 000 dol\u00e1rov plus 900 dol\u00e1rov mesa\u010dne po cel\u00fd zvy\u0161ok \u017eivota. Na moju naivn\u00fa ot\u00e1zku, kde si m\u00e1m obstara\u0165 tak\u00fa sumu, doktor len pokr\u010dil plecami a poradil mi, aby som si ju zarobil alebo na\u0161iel pois\u0165ovaciu spolo\u010dnos\u0165, ktor\u00e1 by to za m\u0148a zaplatila. Potom vyjadril nesmel\u00fa n\u00e1dej, \u017ee mi h\u00e1dam pom\u00f4\u017ee nejak\u00e1 s\u00fakromn\u00e1 osoba alebo organiz\u00e1cia. A v\u00f4bec, m\u00f4\u017eem sa pok\u00fasi\u0165 po\u017eiada\u0165 \u0161t\u00e1t, hoci ten, pochopite\u013ene, nieje povinn\u00fd. Zapla\u0165, alebo zomri! – to si budem pam\u00e4ta\u0165 do konca \u017eivota.<\/p>\n

\u201ePredsa to nem\u00f4\u017ee by\u0165 a\u017e tak\u00e9 bezn\u00e1dejn\u00e9, povie si \u010ditate\u013e om\u00e1men\u00fd sladk\u00fdmi pies\u0148ami trhov\u00fdch sir\u00e9n. Ve\u010f napokon jestvuj\u00fa pois\u0165ovacie spolo\u010dnosti, ktor\u00e9 hradia pr\u00e1ve lek\u00e1rsku starostlivos\u0165.“ A v duchu si pomysl\u00ed: Autor jednoducho nemal poistku. Ameri\u010dania ju maj\u00fa, preto nepoznaj\u00fa probl\u00e9my.“<\/p>\n

Mus\u00edm v\u0161ak \u010ditate\u013ea sklama\u0165. Ja som poistku mal, no nemalo a nem\u00e1 ju 40 mili\u00f3nov Ameri\u010danov.<\/p>\n
