@ Allknowingmind continued
But in your alternative. My father should have either let himself die or sell our house, put the entire family in debt to simply have a chance to live. I am very happy and proud to live in a society WITH ENOUGH HUMAN COMPASSION to care for its weak and for its sick. And not force them to go begging for hand outs from charity. Universal healthcare is human compassion.

@Allknowingmind conclusion
The question i now ask of you is this: Should my mother, sister and I be stuck with debts because we tried to save my father? Should or society, let us deal with our own problems? or should we be COMPASSIONATE as a society and help the weak, the sick and the old. I have made my choice, and so has my society.

@ AllKnowingMind … you don’t have a cluse how the european healthcare system works, nor do you know how the canadian one does … everything you know is based on hearsay, lies etc. Well at least I don’t have to worry to lose my house or take out a loan just to pay my healthinsurance bill … LONG LIFE SOCIALIZED / UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE !!! LOL If Canada is ever going to implement the US Healthcare system we will revolt, that’s for sure …

@etano1 … wow, you are a damn liar … in germany you wait 7-8 months for a hipreplacement, right … and in the US you get it right away, IDIOT !!!! … don’t forget before you get a hipreplacement you have to go thru tests, they have to measure you etc., than they have to make the Prothesis this all takes a little bit time … I know what I am talking about, because I had a hipreplacement in 2001 in Germany … and I have not waited for anything here in Canada either …

@slickrickdarula I love your false dichotomy. It’s not “Government health care or you hate people.” I just don’t see why people who don’t work should get my money for free. Take out a bank loan. Find a charity. Ask for donations. That’s what I’m about. Maybe in Canada the whole donations/charity thing wouldn’t have worked, but in the US it does.

LOL you need to go back to school for a gramar lesson too. Let me give you a fact, I have worked two jobs since I was 13 years old I have had insurace from my government employer for the past 20 years. And let me tell you not one time in the last 20 years has my pay been raised higher than what my insurance was raised. I DO NOT get to pick my own DR. and I know people who go to Canada to have work done that cost half of what they have to pay here. Do a little looking around you.

so basically because my father was diagnosed with leucimia, as if that wasnt enough, i and the rest of my family need to go beg for charity? A bank loan?? do you know how much 4 years of medical treatment cost? In the 4 years i can only estimate its around 2 million dollars (200k for marrow transplants alone)for all the hospital time, drugs, doctors, bone marrow transplant. Our family now would be bankrupt and have lost our father? where is the human decency in that.

I live in Canada, we have true single payer socialised healthcare. What bs am I supposedly buying? The fact we make sure we all have decent health services?
And about who will pay: taxes pay, and btw we pay less per capita then the US, yet have higher life expectancy, less child mortality, less cronic health issues.
And Canada is not bankrupt, the US is.

The public health care system is crap. I tend to call public hospitals “guessing centre” While it’s good that we don’t leave people dying and poor old people get care so they can live a little longer. Personally i won’t go anywhere near public hospitals. Private hospitals have much more professionals and they are more financially motivated to do a good job.

Yes America has a lot of administrative costs…because of all the regulations that the government created in the 70s. Why is it that HMOs never existed until the govt got involved???? Oh yeah, that’s right, because the govt got involved. Let me get this straight, we are entitled to education and healthcare…what about clothes? Food? Homes? Jobs? Water? Electricity? Oh shit we are entitled to everything…oh shit we are communist now and that failed…so now what do we do? blame the rich!!!

@ Allknowingmind it has here in Canada
to give another example:
My father died when i was 16, he suffered from leucimia. basically from ages 12 to 16 my father was unable to work, receiving frist cimiotherapy then a cocktail of anti rejection drugs. The 3 bone marrow transplants he received would not of been covered by any private insurance plan in the US, I know, I did the research, because the succes rate is lees then 50%.
