You are in error by 180 degrees and an order of magnitude... And, continue to read things that aren't there... America may or may not have "the best in the world"... and I don't really care about that in the specific either way... as that's hardly a useful metric to consider in evaluating one's own position relative to need and 'what should be" that is not ? I tend to not trust the value judgements of others in any case.... given they've proven to have everything related in judgement exactly wrong. That the rest of the world sucks... and are anxious to reduce America to sucking just as badly... is still not generating any reason for me to care what they (or you) want ? I don't give a rats ass about Canada's choices otherwise. Feel free to wallow in it, congratulating yourself. I think it used to be clearly true... that our free market system delivered vastly superior product. Canadians used to flock across the border to get care here that Canada's system would not allow them to access in time to save their lives. Health care that thinks banishing you to waiting in queue until dead "for the greater good" is a proof of superior quality... seems adequately self critiquing, to me. In any case, I don't think it remains true, as a general rule... as we no longer have anything remotely close to approximating a free market here. But, whatever the judgement on any snapshot might require in determining "better"... I doubt the instance is as important as the vector... and the vector is... 180 degrees out... engaged in a global race to the bottom... which, again, generates no reason for me to think it useful to pick teams or add commentary ? I have generally opted out of all participation in the corporate malfeasance and malpractice masquerading as health care in this country... The socialist system of health care sucks... and it has ruined what little good there was left in the pre-corporate system that we once had... Given "their" failure to enable quality... and a vector heading the wrong way... I don't see any reason to pay for it at all... I think it is obviously true, statistically provable, at least... that exposure to "health care" is a leading cause of death... and while it is well worth avoiding on that basis alone... how much more true would it be that "avoiding paying for it" would be equally as rational ? They may have an interest in trying to kill me with incompetence while inducing me to pay for it... which doesn't suggest to me that I should willingly oblige. That leaves me, as in other things, in the position of being expected as an observer to actively participate and at least pick a side to root for... submitting myself to the dangers of control by pro-socialist medicine... or to the similar abuses of the pro-corporate medicine cabal... but, I'm not going along... as I'm instead rooting for both teams to lose... which has me in the unique position of almost certainly being on the winning side of the argument... I will act in self interest... without a need for tolerating others interfering with my choices... in order that they can feel good about themselves for "caring". Thanks for playing.
