In England, health care is "free" -- as long as you don't mind waiting. People wait so long for dentist appointments that some pull their own teeth.
More than a million and a half Canadians say they can't find a family doctor. Some towns hold lotteries to determine who gets a doctor.
Canada and England don't pay the price because they freeload off American innovation. If America adopted their systems, we could worry less about paying for health care, but we'd get 2009-level care -- forever. Government monopolies don't innovate. Profit seekers do.
We saw this in Canada, where we did find one area of medicine that offers easy access to cutting-edge technology -- CT scan, endoscopy, thoracoscopy, laparoscopy, etc. It was open 24/7. Patients didn't have to wait.
But you have to bark or meow to get that kind of treatment. Animal care is the one area of medicine that hasn't been taken over by the government. Dogs can get a CT scan in one day. For people, the waiting list is a month.
Government-run health care, like raw Communism, is something that American leftists know has never worked ... ever ... anywhere. Yet they are positive that it's a good thing, that just hasn't been done right yet.
Dhimmicrats think they can do Communism and make it work.
» No climate debate? Yes, there is
Hush, says Obama. Don’t ask questions. “There is no longer a debate about whether carbon pollution is placing our planet in jeopardy,’’ he declared Saturday. “It’s happening.’’
For non-experts, a steadily-widening shelf of excellent books surveys the data in laymen’s terms and exposes the weaknesses in the doomsday scenario - among others, “Climate Confusion’’ by Roy W. Spencer, “Climate of Fear’’ by Thomas Gale Moore, “Taken by Storm’’ by Christopher Essex and Ross McKitrick, and “Unstoppable Global Warming: Every 1,500 Years’’ by S. Fred Singer and Dennis Avery.
From light bulb laws to world hunger, what’s not to like about Cap&Trade?
Some are calling C&T “dead in the water,” but Michelle Malkin tells us to gird our loins because this monster will take some killing. If we don’t call our senators the dead thing in the water will be us.
Liberal Fascism: A Second Scientist Silenced by Global Warming Alarmists
I am so sick of these power-hungry bureaucrats who are on the verge of passing one of the most destructive bills in U.S. history based
When the EPA and environ-mental-ist fellow travelers (including our own president!) call CO2 a pollutant, they are full of crap.
When Barack Obama declares that “the days of science taking a back seat to ideology are over,” he is full of crap.
When Barack Obama tells us the C(r)ap and Trade bill will benefit the U.S. economy and save jobs, he is full of crap.
When Al Gore says “The science is settled,” he is full of crap.
When the loathsome Henry Waxman (D-CA) says that “the consensus is overwhelming,” he is full of crap.
(While we’re on the topic, Waxman is also full of crap when he calls the opposition to the bill by most Republicans “playing politics” and “rooting against the country and … against the world.” This guy couldn’t support one thing that was trying to be achieved by the Bush administration for the good of the country and/or the world, from tax cuts to the War on Terror. Calling this guy a disgrace would be too kind.)
And when anyone says “The debate is over,” it’s only because they have covered their ears, shut out anybody with evidence contradictory to their own radical ideology, and declared it to be over.
» Czarred And Feathered
It's been suggested that the White House has more czars than the Russian Romanov dynasty. Has the administration forgotten that we have a government of elected officials, not of imperial appointments?
Green jobs czar, TARP czar, Great Lakes czar, Science czar, Climate czar, Car czar, Guantanamo closure czar, Faith-based czar, Urban affairs Czar, Regulatory czar ... and more. 28 so far, and counting.
» King Obama: House Considers Repealing 22nd Amendment
As the election campaign of Obama revealed, it is relatively easy to whip up irrational frenzy over a candidate, thus ensuring his re-election indefinitely if the 22nd Amendment is indeed repealed.
