Teema: Re:but you don't see US citizens rushing to those countries for health care needs
Artful Dodger: And why is Canadian health going down.. due to the strain from the USA!!
And USA health care is 37th in the world. Did you miss that fact from the WHO?
Our *cough* socialised system ranks 18th yet we pay about half the GNP rate you do.
So.. being honest and faced by details and not political dogma... which is more efficient? And.. if we increased our GNP input by just a few %, then how do you think the UK would fair?
Btw... Cuba is only two points behind you, and it was a special favour by the Cuban medical services. Your guys who rescued people were being mucked about by your medical system, the Cubans on film agreed to treat them and could not understand why those who put their lives at risk were being denied treatment!
Why if people pay are they being denied treatment??
