...that it is a health care program for the poor. Recipients are stigmatized and often embarrassed to participate in the system. Doctors, receiving lower rates of payment, often provide a lower quality of care. And the federal government has a ready-made whipping boy should the budget deficit need a trim.

"I was bound to have fun with the role of a gruff, Victorian Scottish father," Connery says of Henry (remember, the Jones family hails from Utah).
