All I know is as a Canadian I can go to the doctor anytime I want without fear of losing all I have to pay for it. I don't need to procrasinate and jeopardize my life or that of my family because I don't have the money. I don't need to worry about pre-existing medical concerns. If I'm sick I go to MY doctor who knows me and my history. I don't get told where or when to go.
Yes, we pay for this through taxes, both personal and corporate, but NO ONE is denied health care.
When you're sick or your child is sick all you care or worry about is getting well and that's all you should have to worry about. Unfortunately from what I understand alot of Americans have to think twice and three times before they can seek medical attention because of the costs.
Perhaps you should take a good look at our system and ask some relevant questions on how it is administred. People should not be denied healthcare and it's about time the American government did something about it.
All I know is I'm glad I live in a country where whether you are unemployed or making six figures you can go to the doctor NO QUESTIONS ASKED.
