It explains well the famous 45 millions uninsured in the states.

However, just like the article produced in the other health care myth thread.

Honestly. I just read opinions, and no actual research

The real important statistics, life span, healthy life span, infant mortality rate, and cost per capita/%GDP all indicate that we get better leverage from the loonie. What most arguments for the insurance based health care come down to is choice. Americans have more choice than Canadians. They can choose to be insured to the nines, have insurance that covers most/some/a little of their potential health care costs, have no insurance at all and hope for the best. We choose to make health care a right which we all pay for. I like our system. We make the decision that there are some of us who will not take care of themselves and choose to provide for them. It makes for a more civil and happy society.

Interesting read. Although we have a copay already in BC with Pharmacare and Premium assistance. I would like that to be updated like the article suggests however.

The most biased look at our health care in a long time (probably since Moore praised it to high heaven). Anyone who constantly says "socialized health care" isn't looking at it objectively.

Health care in one town in Quebec does not equal health care in all of Quebec, much less all of Canada either. I might as well say all of China is rich, because I visited Pudong in Shanghai, or that all of the USA is poor because I went to the Bronx once.

Specious reasoning at best...
