I'm intrigued Edelweiss...why would you want to move to the U.S.? Germany has a great public supported health care system, much better than the U.S.

No, I would never move to the U.S. --just because of that alone. After hearing all the stories here and elsewhere (with a more mixed bag of U.S. women who are interested in health matters) about HMOs, etc.
