One of a series of questions for those who do not support health care reform.
This is what the status quo has led us to:
World Health Organization ranking U.S. health care 37th in the world:

@fudgebrownies42 Really, I have over 30 family memebers that LIVE in Canada now, and they all say it is very hard to get in to see a doctor, and god help you if you need a dentist. In the town they live in you cant even get a dentist unless someone dies on the Dentist list to make room for U. Now Reply about your false stats. on how it covers every death, not just medical deaths, and also about Taxs hikes and fines to cover these expences. We Need Insurance Reform, not Healthcare Reform.
@LUVYOURSKIN. I …
@LUVYOURSKIN. I know lots of Canadians and they have never had to wait for care nor to they come to the US for any kind of care.
Yes in Canada you …
Yes in Canada you have to wait in line sometimes as alone as 2 to 6 months just to see their doctor, and also, In Canada if people have a major health problem they come to the USA to seen help. Why is that? You tell me. And Government healthcare takes money, and who Pays for that? In the UK and Canada, Look at the Tax rate that the people have to pay. it is far above that of the USA. Governemtn healthcare is not free, someone has to pay for it. And I wonder who pays for it.
We’re 31st in the …
We’re 31st in the WHO ranking (18th in expenditure per capita)!! And 9th in IMR.
And we got socialized medicine with some private hospitals.
There’s some for those who criticize social medical systems.
The typical thing with conservatives is that they keep insisting that Americans receive the finest healthcare in the world, and don’t mention which Americans. Not all americans receive proper healthcare.
Bragging rights should be exercised only when you have something to show!
