If they don't want to practice socialized meds why would they go to Canada or Costa Rica?

Am I correct in assuming you are referring to the one article posted all over the right wing blogs written by the economist Yuri N. Maltsev, who specializes in Austrian economics, and has been working in the US since 1989?
