You mean like organ transplants? How hard do you think it will be to get one here, now, off the black market?

Organ transplant availability depends on the availability of viable organs, Spain which has the highest rates ofper capita donations has a much more "Socialist health system than Obama's. It also, controversially, has a policy of forcing people to opt out of the donation scheme. Unless you say no before you die, Spanish surgeons have an automatic right to harvest the fruits of your corpse.

Oh, ugh! I didn't know that. What about the next of kin? They have no legal rights in Spain when a family member dies without stating their wishes? :emot-handshake:

I don't think so. It's seen as a decision you have to take yourself before you die. Maybe, it's easier for the family in someways, it's hard enough dealing with the death of someone so close without being bothered by surgeon seeking permision to remove organs.

No, really. You think someone will have the same odds of receiving an organ transplant as say, someone who can pay cash for one? Why are the rich of Canada coming to the US to get them, then? Cuz they will be dead by the time it's their turn?

Aren't you aware of the fact that the Media has been telling us for years that Canada and Cuba have the best Health Care in the world? :) The media wouldn't lie. :laugh:

Why, I bet Lil' Il' Pappa Chavez is applauding too. I think we may actually be following his economic model. :wub:

This Canadian had to go to The ER on thursday. I had excruciating pain on my right side, and vomited a few times due to how bad it was, could barely walk.

I got top rate medical care, Morphine, Ibuprofen, Blood and Urine Tests, CAT Scan, Ultrasound, and got Surgery on Friday. I got out of the hospital yesterday.

The cost to me? Nothing. I can now focus on continuing to start my small business into the next phase of it's operations, which was the thing I was currently working on, rather than worry about massive medical bills, which would have doomed my entrepreneurial efforts.

So yeah, we have pretty darn good healthcare here.

Sure, as long as someone else is paying for it. Or, do you think healthcare grows on trees?

No it comes out of our taxes like education and warfare, and I'm happier paying for it than the latter. I find the idea that only those who can pay get healed repulsive and those who are unwilling to spread the burden of healthcare costs fairly selfish.

And I resent having to provide free healthcare to people who have entered our country illegally, who don't pay taxes and take jobs from Americans while we have 10% unemployment. What is the population of Canada? 30 million? Not 300,000,000 like us. It takes a lot more tax money (which doesn't get collected) to provide "free" healthcare to 300 million than to 30 million. Oh, but we do love you cannuks.

I'm not "standing in the place of God" but merely stating an opinion. Plenty of strong opinions being aired here, not too sure why mine are less acceptable than others.
