Saudi Nationals are healthier than poor people.

It seems a Saudia National has been given a liver transplant over 52 others on the waiting list ahead of him. Check out http://www.consumeraffairs.com/news04/2005/ca_liver_transplant.html for more information on how money can buy a longer life span! I suspect the doctors involved here have been, shall we say, paid off? This Saudi guy paid over 300,000 bucks more than an insurance company would have paid. That's enough to keep a couple of doctors in a swanky country club for a whole year! I wish I had that kind of dough. Of course, I'm glad I'm poor enough to not need a liver transplant!
