    Check out that handy dandy site I gave you. You can compare white Americans with Canadians.
    Doesn't Canada have a lot of Indians?
    How about those links?

    No thats reality, plenty of US citizens have no or very limited health care.

    You do realise health care is more then an emergency room in the hospital?

    They have as much healcare as they want. There is a social safety net in the US. It’s called Medicaid/CHIP.

    It seems even when you supply some people with the facts they bounce off their ol' noggin.

    I have repeatedly explained to said poster. Rinse and repeat seems to be SOP.

    Every province also has a program for low income citizens to get prescriptions for a roughly $4 processing fee. ALL Canadians get this drug plan automatically when turning 65. All I had to do was bring my health card and the letter from the government welcoming me to the plan to my pharmacist and voila, now all my drugs cost $2.11 ( pharmacy competitive deal - go figger) per.

    You're using the term "illiberal" as an epithet to attack liberals. It's juvenile stupidity.

    Sometimes. Canadians don't have easy access to U.S. courts. Hospitals take advantage of that by making fewer concessions.

    I won't mention the hospital, but they thought my father was a Canadian because I listed by Canadian address where they could contact me. What they didn't know is that my U.S, address was a couple of miles away and that in a few weeks I would be living there.

    They not only hit him with chargemaster rates, but they put all sorts of charges on his bill that he couldn't possibly have incurred. I recorded telephone conversations I had with them about the bill when I was in Canada, and when I was back to stay in a month I informed them I had legally taped and admissable confessions of outright fraud by hospital staff I was fully prepared to use in court. They negotiated quickly and they acted all hurt when they found out my father lived in the area (some miles away) and I was trying to knock down the bill to save on my father's portion.

    My father and I have the same name and they got the admission forms screwed up, otherwise they might have charged a different rate.

    Pure greed.

    The outline of the shameful GOP plan to chop health care coverage for tens of millions of Americans.

    They can't afford coverage, even under Obamacare.

    Guess you didn't read all your references.

    Total BS. You're not even bothering to advance an honest argument. Perhaps you're ashamed of your position.

    Drugs not covered by public plans in Canada (Imiquimod, for example) are available through some private plans or can be had out-of-pocket.

    Oh yeah, the private plans are big sellers if you don't have employee bennies. And cash is always king.

    I’m using the term illiberal to denote those who are not interested in the truth.

    Too funny. You have no knowledge of the Ryan Roadmap nor the intellectual honesty to read it.

    Can’t help those without curiosity and initiative and the courage to challenge their ideology. Carry on in ignorance.
