Yuu know after reading Dr. Finklestein's and Faye's posts from last night I think that they are beginning to understand what I am saying.
Socialized medicine is not perfect by any measure. It has its inherent problems, one being the megalithic cost and secondly, while quality of care is good it certainly could be better. I am tired of hearing how perfect it is when in reality I know much better than that. THAT is the propaganda that the supporters are feeding US.
Our system is not perfect either and it does leave a very small group of people to fend for themselves. I must dispute the idea floated out there in Canada and GB that the majority of people are poorly cared for. That is a fallacy. You will always get the care you need but, as is OUR downfall, at a price.
The thing that I am gleaning from their posts is that they don't want to worry about the COST to them of their medical treatment and the the point I am trying to make is that I feel Americans don't want to have to worry about the QUALITY. Both very important things, mind you, but I feel that we can work on improving the system without giving up what we consider the most important thing and that is quality.
And Faye you are right, what happens in the States is NOYB.
BTW for the person who mentioned that the Canadian Gov't is a minority Gov't you are correct but so am I. Not everyone is a liberal like Faye is, some actually have different views so she can't speak for all of them, THAT was my point.
