Stop the presses!
(They still don't want our system.) -
Figures, your dad has lived too long an you're tired of him spending what you thought was going to be your inheritance.HHusky said:
Single payer works reasonably well. The whole premise of this post was that someone (unidentified) had been praising British healthcare, which is single provider, not single payer as Atl maintained.RaceBannon said:It's not Obamacare it's not single payer it's not national health because all those suck
Its wonder care and its free!
No one thinks any system is perfect and I've been totally in favor of putting the aged on ice floes at the point their care becomes too expensive, but apparently my old school sensibilities aren't mainstream. -
Do you not know how this works? His care is barely costing him anything. The inheritance is modest, but growing.SFGbob said:

Medicare doesn't cover everything. Do you know how it works? Must really piss you off that he hasn't died yet.HHusky said:

I have multiple friends who have come down to the US from Canada for life saving procedures. You still want to tout Canadian healthcare?HHusky said:
Tired of campaigning against Canadian healthcare? This is a nice variation.Bendintheriver said:England's healthcare is a disaster. 4.41 million people on waiting lists for routine operations.
See our future if we let rats have control and go with their single payer model.
The picture of four-year-old Jack sleeping on a hospital floor despite having suspected pneumonia summed up in one image more than a million words or spreadsheets could ever do.
The hospital quickly admitted it was all true – little Jack had been left on a floor for four and a half hours and the Chief Executive had apologised personally to Jack’s mum. TRUE STORY.
That picture told how we have a 40,000 shortage of nurses, 4.41 million people stuck on waiting lists for routine operations, and hundreds of crumbling, unsafe hospitals. Our NHS staff are brilliant but they’re overstretched and under-resourced.

He was a public employee during the generous benefit, less generous pay days. He's not deficit spending.SFGbob said:

Now we are down to Canada and I happen to know people who have come down here for life saving surgery.
Good call HH. How many more need to die before you FEEL for those that believed in single payer healthcare and never got it? -
Why talk to me? I'm sure if you explain to the Canadians that they're stupid, you'll find them very receptive.Bendintheriver said:
