“42,000 Canadians come to the United States for care” – Really? - PNHP's Official BlogWell Canadian citizens come over here for their care. I am asking why. Can you answer it?
If things were so much better in Canada, wouldn't you think U.S. residents would flock there?
If you understood that you need to be a Canadian citizen in order to sign on to Canadian Health Care, you wouldn't ask that question.
Got stats?

U.S. Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions, Subcommittee on Primary Health and Aging, March 11, 2014
Those Canadians who can afford to do so have simply opted out of their healthcare system. An enormous number jump the queue for care in their native land and travel to the United States to receive medical attention. In 2012, over 42,000 Canadians crossed the border to get treated.

See now? You were at least willing to cite the actual report. I'd recommend you instruct Conservative65 in how to do that going forward.
Y'all need to look credible.
Back to 90% on the rich. Just like it was under the REPUBLICAN Eisenhower.
Not only impolite, but wrong: Medicare Interactive - Getting Medicare when you turn 65
Once enrolled, I suppose you can go through the process of saying "No, I don't wanna," but I'm betting when the time comes you won't.
All that shows is spending. Lots of other factors in the definition of "working".Who gives a rat's ass what those moose fuckers in Canada do? I thought what other countries did was none of our business.
Scared to find out their system works? Not surprising.
Depends on what you call "working".
Let's start here:
True, but given your dismissal of complexities, I thought we'd start slowly.
So if "the Canadian system - not to mention every system in the rest of the industrialized world - can deliver patient care for much less than the U.S. system" doesn't interest or confuses you, there's no need to challenge you with anything more complex.

As pointed out, the elites will work a doctor's visit into a vacation and write it off as a business expense.
If you knew anything about the weather in Newfoundland, you'd understand why this bloke needed a vacation.
^^^^ proving, once again, that the BULLSHITTER is a fucking Trotskyite!
He's been there for seven years and I'll goddamned guarantee you people are better off than they were at the end of Bush's two terms.....double dog guarantee:
sigh. "they" collapsed housing thru the mortgage crisis. Many years in making, CRA Glass-Stegal etc.
To say things "are better" now........duh. Like after house burn down, but you got out alive. Thanks I guess?
I don't get SSI but I am on Medicare.Not only impolite, but wrong: Medicare Interactive - Getting Medicare when you turn 65
Once enrolled, I suppose you can go through the process of saying "No, I don't wanna," but I'm betting when the time comes you won't.
Curious about this Medicare, Does anyone age 65 qualify? Even if never worked and paid into it?
Or is it like SSI where you have an account? sort of? At least I hope SSI not go to those never paid in?

Heart surgery is hardly what I call a vacation. If that's a vacation, may I never have one in my life.
Living on the northern border in the US, I often talk with Canadian truck drivers. One of the first subjects I bring up is Canadian healthcare. Younger and middle-aged Canadians boast about the system. It's perfect as far as they are concerned. The older drivers? Quite the opposite story. A few have warned me to do what I can to make sure we never adopt the Canadian system. So it all depends on who you talk to.
But I will say this: nobody has a perfect medical care system. They all have problems to one degree or another. Cost is usually the main factor, but for the older Canadian folks I've talked to, getting the proper and timely care is another major issue.

The Greedy Assed Banks on Wall St. Jacked home prices to a point of no return. That's what caused the collapse. I thought everyone new that. My mistake!!
^As the last industrialized nation to adapt UHC, the U.S. would be in a position to study the flaws in other systems and do its best to improve upon them.
