“Don’t worry. As soon as Americans get what they want and have “the government” pay for their “healthcare”, those cancer survival rates will go down.”

And so won’t bankruptcies.....

Sorry, but I was talking to a friend who lives in New Brunswick (Canada) last night. He says the last thing his family has to worry about is losing everything because they got sick! He knows of no one who would trade their healthcare system for the expensive preditory (his words) system we have here. Seems we always bad mouth the Canadian system but I’ve yet to find a Canadian who doesn’t like it. Incoming!!!

Every Canadian loves their system, until they get seriously ill.

Their system is designed to treat sniffles and bruised shins, for free.

When a Canadian (or anyone in a similar system) comes down with a serious illness, they get put on a waiting list and die, thus avoiding the cost of acute care.

Canadians have a safety valve built into their health care system.It's called the USA.When they're told that they have to wait six months for a cancer specialist to check that lump they hop in their car and have it examined within days at a hospital in NY,or MI,or MN or WA.

Once Hillary! sees to it that that option is closed off to Canadians they'll start rioting in the streets...if they can find the strength to do so.
