While I agree that the health care in our country is out of control cost wise, single-payer is a disaster.
I grew up in Canada.
Most of my family still lives in Canada.
It is an absolute nightmare up there. Wait times are insane, for simple procedures and tests.
I could go on and on about my own stories and my families.
And it is NOT FREE. There is nothing free. Taxes are just more.
I have lived in both systems. Experienced both systems. I live in the US, and one of the reasons is because of the health care.
Litigation here in the US is the worst ever. That needs to be dealt with. Its too bad Congress is full of a bunch of lawyers. They have no vision for anything. And look after lawyers.
I have a Mennonite friend whose sister lives in Canada. They come to the US regularly for health care, especially any elective surgery, especially late in the year. The doctors have a quota of work for a year, & If they have met that quota by say Sept. or so, they're off to the Bahamas until New Years. If you need something that isn't deadly urgent, you wait until the doc gets back from vacation. |
Health care discussion not even possible here?
