When Andrew and Merry Kuharsky had their first child in Canada, they never got a bill from the hospital.

Their second child, born in Greenville, cost them about $3,000.

As they see more and more Americans becoming uninsured, and fear what their own future may hold with only catastrophic coverage, the Kuharskys, directors of the Greenville Ballet School, think it's time to change the health-care system.

Fresh off the proposal to give prisoners six months off their sentences if they become human organ farms and donate kidneys, they now have come up with a new doozy of a proposal. If you want an abortion in the Palmetto state, there is a new catch.
