Broadly speaking, the previous finding on the similar sensitivity of Spaniard and foreigner flows to unemployment rate remains valid.
When foreigners join these flows they are mere drops in the torrent.
The flow of foreigners into Britain has accelerated over the past ten years, partly because of demand (booming economies need new workers) and partly because of supply (developing-country disorder and new entrants into the European Union).
The flow of foreigners will encourage capital and trained staff to flee state-run health-care systems in poor countries in favour of better-paying jobs catering to foreigners and local fat cats.It is surely right that medical tourism is partly the result of the failings in America's health system.
