Alright, so I went to the hospital last week 'cause my asthma started up due to the cold. Anyways, the cool part about this story is that when we got to the hospital, they had an area called "Clinic for VIP." A little background to chinese hospitals, very crowded, extremely long lines to fill prescriptions (no rite aids here), long waits, and overall very uncomfortable. However, thru those "magical" VIP doors, its a whole different world. You pay extra money (read: foreigners) and you get to sit in plush leather couches, no wait time, and someone else goes & grabs the meds for you. Capitalism at work.
