Sicko Part 7

Sometimes I wonder why our country citizens are listed as one of the happiest, although we are always complaining so much. But this gives a good comparison to a really fucked up system.

The reason European and Canadian healthcare is so much better is because we don't have money-hungry executives and shareholders sucking as much cash out of the system as possible.

Americans can be so ignorant-
if only they woke up and realized that their healthcare sucks than maybe they would do something about it.

Makes me so proud to live in a country with National Health!

All those news clips about long lineups and waiting lists that Michael Moore spliced into the prelude to this part---that's all very true. It can take months to get an MRI scan or a non-life-threatening operation (depending on what it is). And then there's the "brain drain"---so many of our doctors and nurses are lured by foreign (esp. U.S.) dollar signs.

Yes, public healthcare has its flaws, but it's still much better than being denied coverage or service by some stingy insurance agency.

I'm glad I'm British!

im so glad i live in canada aha :P

Being a Canadian, I grinned at that remark. People can assume so much about those they don't understand.

"...Sure we complain about things"
"Right, your Canadian" XD
