I just have to correct the facts in your article about peter pan, The aurther of peter pan J.M Barrie gave the copy right to Great Ormond street hospital, for free out of the godness of his hart to help raise much needed funds for the charity.

Most of what you have writen is just american bigotorie for a system you do not under stand, from a country that would only give health care to the rich.

Great Ormond street hospital has infact commisend a sequwal to peter pan, in effort to replace this vital loss of revenue to support the work it does with sick and die'ing children.

"Thanks to the generosity of Peter Pan's author, J M Barrie, who gave the copyright of his children’s classic to Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children in April 1929, the magical story has brought fairytale endings for many sick children treated here."
