More "I have no idea what I'm talking about" stuff from Bill.
Personal injury litigation stops if the plaintiff dies. Anything not
settled before the death is ended. Only if the surviving spouse is
also a plaintiff does the case continue.

No, I don't think so.

Because it's rationed. Rationing can do wonders for bringing down costs, and
in fact may be absolutely necessary to make a thing affordable -- especially
when it's "free," which naturally drives up demand. It still has to be paid
for by somebody.

Even so, the Canadian health-care system has been described as "imploding"
by professionals there.
