Socialized Health Care in the USA

[Skandranon]

I'm not sure what makes a "single payer government run system" better. It just means that there are price controls making providing health care uniformly less lucrative for providers, and prioritized waiting lists for services which result in rationed care where the oldest and sickest die rather than get care. Right?

I thought you were too smart to fall for this kind of propaganda, kandrathe. I'm disappointed.

Speaking from the Land of Socialized Medicine itself, my oldest and sickest relatives have always received prompt and excellent care. Ask any Canadian with an aged relative and they'll surely have a similar story to share.

By the way, I agree completely with Jester. Moral hazard does not apply to health care. Here, have an article by Malcolm Gladwell on the subject. It's old, but so is the problem.
