@clwgirl510 Medical treatments available in the US are indeed an overall best in the world -- but it is the best that only lots of money can buy. However, this "best" is not available to many millions of Americans and insurance won't pay for many treatments. The Newfoundland premier chose to use his own funds to have major heart surgery in Florida though the same procedure is available to all Canadians in several Canadian cities outside Newfoundland. You'll have to ask him why.

@clwgirl510 A recent Harvard study shows that over 45,000 Americans DIE on average every year because they do not have insurance and cannot afford required care/treatment. They are therefore, not treated!
Ron Paul is a liar & confused nitwit who supposedly was educated in the FACT of evolution -- a prerequisite for any medical doctor. Yet he now says he doesn't believe in evolution as he considers himself a creationsist. So he thinks we were *poofed* into existence in today's form.

@JesusSavesAtCitibank Also if the Canadian Health Care System is so great, then why did the Newfoundland Premier come to America for Health Care?? And don't even use the excuse of "it was closer" like I've heard other Canadians use. He went to Florida! There were tons of "closer" cities. Montreal, Toronto, Boston, New York City, Philadelphia??

@JesusSavesAtCitibank Nobody is turned away from a hospital in America your ignorant twit. Everybody is treated. Why don't you listen to Ron Paul, who actually is an American doctor!

@clwgirl510 As all humans can become ill, those human rights you speak of must include equal access to health care. Any excuse in opposition is immoral. France & Japan also have high cancer survival rates, while ours vary widely between states, whites & blacks, rich & poor, and type of cancer. As my father was born in Canada, and we have family there, I know the system well. None of my Canadian relatives would ever want our health care nightmare to supplant their universal system.

@JesusSavesAtCitibank Human rights you are born with... Health Care wasn't always around you dumbass. Also why do people in America have a higher cancer survival rate than Europe, Australia, or Canada if Socialist Health Care is so great? Sorry I was born in Canada, have lived in Canada, have family who lives in Canada and National Health Care is not the best care in the world. It's rationed all the time.

Amazing. A congressman who cares about doing their job.
You're a brainwashed cretin. Nobody beats the extreme level of corruption in your America, and the people of Europe not only have more freedoms than you, but they are guaranteed the basic human right of health care without ever fearing the loss of their entire life savings or home just because they became ill. It is clear -- you are mentally challenged.
