Why National Healthcare is a Mistake
Why don’t we want National Healthcare?
- When the former prime minister of Italy needed heart surgery, he came to the U.S.
- When the Minister of Health in Canada found out she had breast cancer, she came to the U.S. for healthcare.
- About 7,500 foreiners came to the John Hopkins last year alone.
- Survival rates for almost any disease is higher in the U.S.
- The U.S. drives much of the medical innovation in the world. 18 of the last 25 medical nobel prize winners live/work in the U.S.
- The more the government gets involved, costs go up, quality goes down, waits go up, choice goes down…
- Canada has over 800,000 people on waitlists for care… Many in chronic pain, and some may die due to lack of care.
- 750,000 people in the U.K. are on waitlists. Treatable illnesses like cancer go untreated, and become untreatable by the time people get care.
- and on and on…
