US Insurance-run health care gives people 59 cents worth of health care for every dollar of premiums you pay. Canadian health care gives people 91 cents worth of health care for every dollar taken in. US Medicare gives 93 cents worth of health care for every dollar taken in. Clearly the government funded systems are far more efficient and cost less.
-
Canada doesn't have all the answers, just ten times more than the US has.
-
It's the fault of the low quality of US health care as well as the insurance takeover of health care.
-
Our life expectancy is 2.6 years longer than the nation with the so called "best health care in the world" which ranks #19 of 19 industrialized nations while Canada ranks #6. Regarding obesity rates: Canada 15% are obese. The US 34.3% are obese.
-
do you realize our life expectancy is lower little lower than Puerto Rico? It's almost the same as European union!
Are you saying that Puerto Rico has better healthcare? think about it
These numbers are so misleading is actually stupid to even argue. Get off your high horse as though Canada has all the answers to healthcare...it's not as simple or clear cut as you make it out to be. All these "systems" need work...the USA needs to quit EATING so much fast food.
-
59 cents, not 56.
-
Americans pay alimost twice as much as anyone else, because insurance companies have 41% overhead, and only 56% is paid out for health care. You get 56 cents worth of health care for every dollar you pay in insurance premiums. Canadian overhead is 9%, Medicare overhead is 6%.
-
It's Americans drinking the kool aid to not see the tens of thousands of dead in their backyards each year.
-
If insurance were abolished and a single payer system like we have were implemented, those American dead would be alive,
-
Most Americans have no quality of health care. Canadians have better access and quality of health care than the majority of Americans.

Health care is a right, not a privilege! Why we don't pay for the following?
-Police
-Fire Dept.
-Military
-Public schools
Health should be any different? NO!!!!!

I'm glad that I can go to any doctor any time here in Germany without having to worry about how to pay for the bills. My current premium is about 60 Euros a month. It's so weired Americans don't believe in the right for universal healthcare. Why doesn't the US government spend all of that tax money it receives on health care and social security - that is, his OWN people, instead of military spending for stupid wars? Must be the lobby groups I guess.
