... breast cancer in America has a 25% mortality rate while in Britain it’s almost double at 46%.

.....
The mother of one of my neighbors lived in England and came down with breast cancer. This progressed to lymphoma and she eventually passed away. They described the care as “very good” after she became ill. Her husband came down with cataracts in that same time period, and the wait list was over a year. He went blind waiting. Here where I live, on an island just off the coast, people with cataracts don’t even have to cross the water to get them fixed, and it is done on a couple of weeks’s notice.

There'a a lot more stuff like this out there - you've seen it on the health care thread. You're lying if you pretend otherwise.
