>>What does nationalized health care cost control look like in Canada, our neighbor? Long waiting lists. Months. Willingly pay cash out of pocket to visit USA instead. Hospital corridors lined with unattended patients laying in their own filth for days. Re-using disposable supplies. These are the kinds of cost controls that happen in nationalized health care.
Have you ever been in a Canadian hospital? I have and so have members of my family. Never, EVER, have I witnessed unattended patients laying in their own filth, nor have I ever witnessed any hospital staff re-using disposable supplies.
I feel it's fine to debate and discuss the pros and cons of any health care system, but to broadly claim that every Canadian hospital treats their patients as you have claimed is an outright lie.
I feel angry, disgusted and very disrespected.
