<their taxes will go for free health care for all,< Free health care for all.. Come on.... Really? Again the Canadian Health care system is funded by a Federal (VAT) tax whose payment is equally collected by everyone, based on consumption. The Low Income pay that same rate amount as the 1%'ers based on their consumption of goods and services. Make no mistake about it.. Canadians PAY for Health Care. So people on the Left laud the Canadian Health Care System and think the US should be just like Canada, but when they find out how it is actually funded, i.e. Federal Sales Tax that EVERYONE PAYS. The the Left aren't so happy with that portion of the equation. So, we should have "Free Health Care" for everyone just like Canada, but we shouldn't fund it "just like Canada", or Norway, or Sweden, or Holland........... 'Free' Health Care in Canada Costs More Than It's Worth huffingtonpost.ca
