These single-pay Government medical systems combine the worst HMO that ever existed with a Government bureaucracy.

You know if we get one costs will be uncontrollable, and some sort of rationing system will be used. If you want extra from it you will have to know a congressman. And boy, will they all love that! They get to play God.

Canadians in general are pretty happy with their health care system.

9. Patient satisfaction

Probably similar to the US level of satisfaction for about half the cost.
