W T actual frick? I live in a socialist country. Where would you like for me to start about the fricking wonderful free healthcare?
How about the 5 times I had to go to the doctor for 1 case of the flu that refused to go away. Giving shite meds as if I was in the US Military still getting the same damn motrin prescription. Finally had a family member visit me from the states during this time and brought me some Theraflu. Was gone in 2 days.
How about my wife getting injured at work and still having to work for the last 3 years on the job with the same damn injury that the docs keep saying, "let's take some time and see if it heals"
They simply do not fix anything. They just keep postponing and postponing, sit and wait attitude.
And btw, no it's not fricking "free." I have to pay for these stupid visits every time I go. Granted it's a bit cheaper, but why the hell do I need to go to the doctor for some shite that Theraflu would take care of in 2 days and only cost me less than 10 bucks?

Liberals want to allow an endless number of low-IQ third worlders into the country AND pay for everyone's healthcare.

Lies. You are guaranteed to get treatment if you go to a hospital in this country no matter your ability to pay.
Sure
But that doesn't mean that we should support the current extremely costly and stupid system that we have

Such a tired line but I will play your stupid little game and say that the countries which guarantee healthcare only guarantee a shitty watered down version of it.

Maybe not, but that's not the OP's argument.

Yep just ask Charlie Garde. Oh wait, you cannot, he's dead due to care withheld.
Well there's those other kids with serious....no wait. They're dead too.
OK, how about the elderly in Norway, oh wait. That's No Way as in No Way Norway allows the elderly to receive prolonging care.
Yeah yeah. Let's be more like Europe!! Or take a number and we'll call you when there's space and time available like Canada does. Sometime in the next 10 years you can get that non life threatening treatment you need to improve quality of life.

This a lie. Health care is available to everyone.

I do know this. My good friend is a nurse at OLOL in the Neurological Critical Care unit. Guess who most of their patients are....all these gunshot wounds, stabbings, etc., none of whom have any insurance and who will never pay a dime for their care and they get the same level of care as anybody else in there.

Dude... you don't know shite. I lived in the UK for 4 years. I used the NHS. It was fine if you had a simple problem. If you had something serious going on it was a mess and is getting worse every year.
It's taking 9 months to get biopsy results back. How would you or your wife like to wait 9 months to see if is is cancer? This is the norm.
Because the NHS is so overwhelmed and broke, most people of any means at all are taking out private insurance. If you want timely care for anything serious then you better have private insurance or be able to survive a year until you can get treatment.
Most NHS systems in countries with high immigration are struggling. Yahoo informed fricksticks like you get on the internet and think you have it figured out but you don't know jackshit about industrialized nations and healthcare other than what Pelosi, Schumer, or Warren mouth off about.
You can be stupid all week... do you have to be stupid all weekend also?

If we didn't spend trillions of dollars building invisible airplanes and rail guns to defend them from ghost armies, we get off our own azzes and quit eating corn syrup and Franken-food and we could make sure that pharm companies weren't screwing us, we probably could afford it.
Posted on 6/8/18 at 7:05 pm to Sentrius
And you would still have to pay for it one way or another for "free healthcare".

Fake news.
The UK didn't provide healthcare to sick children in two high profile cases.

I pay $500 a month in employer benefit program premiums for a $5000 deductible. Health care needs revamping otherwise no one will be able to afford it.
Posted on 6/8/18 at 7:44 pm to mountaintop
I don't think you understand that guarantee doesn't mean today. Try waiting 3 months for an MRI or CT scan in Canada. By the way go frick yourself
