"Proponents of socialized medicine point to other countries as examples of health care systems that are superior to our own. They insist that government will make health care available on the basis of need rather than ability to pay. The rich and poor will have equal access to care. And more serious medical needs will be given priority over less serious needs.

Unfortunately, those promises have not been borne out by decades of studies and statistics from nations with single-payer health care. "

And another article that reinforces the negative American opinion of single payer system .Canada's system is not very good because.... we say so.

See "Sicko" for another view.

My personal view of far from perfect Canadian System.

And no, i am not trying to flog our system on to Americans...i view our system as part of our infrastructure like roads, airports etc. covered by the taxpayers dollar.
