speaking of lines,

last week I posted images of my nearest ER's wait times (almost never goes above 15 mins) and someone mentioned I should check on a monday.

Well I checked on monday and it was normally less than a 10 minute wait, including 3 minute wait at 5pm (3min is lowest they go as a time estimate for paperwork I believe)

so if that person happens to be around, there you go

literally the worst group to give free healthcare to
if you give young people free healthcare, they'll be more healthy and able to work and pay taxes and usually pop out a few more future tax payers
if you give old people free healthcare, they will just die a little later with more expensive maladies to come

Wrong

The young (<35) mostly don't need any healthcare other than a coverage for catastrophic events ( accidents and such)

The elderly, who have worked and have contributed to Medicare deserve healthcare when they need it the most. The system we had before Obamacare would have been perfect if it were not for the millions of undocumented people leeching of our medical system.

Obviously, this is a mischaracterization of arguments in favor of using free market principles to improve healthcare. Many advocates suggest greater price transparency for routine procedures and checkups, preferably with fixed and published prices for the most common procedures. This would force hospitals to compete more directly and allow patients/consumers to make purchase decisions with full knowledge. This would be combined with changing the primary purpose of health insurance to cover rare or unexpected conditions and emergencies more like insurance for other things. Just as car insurance doesn't cover the wheels wearing down or the belts needing to be replaced, just as home insurance doesn't cover reshingling the house or repainting the walls, health insurance does not work when it covers routine maintenance and checkups. Many of these routine tasks don't require a full hospital with all of its equipment and specialists, they can be performed by GPs in small specialized offices. The current system is a travesty and exists more for the welfare of the insurance companies rather than the the benefit of the people and needs to be changed. Hopefully the new system will fix some of the issues seen in other countries and bring our system up the the level of the rest of the developed world's. I don't know nearly enough about Canada's system to comment on it.

Healthcare shouldn't cover check-ups and basic things.
Government should only cover herd immunity practices.
Healthcare should only cover emergency events.

You wouldn't use car insurance on a flat tire, etc.
>>
>>72591816
check ups should be encouraged tbqh, also taking preventative measures should be the norm.

but people can be really poor, not afford checkups, and then require very expensive emergency care that could've been prevented

>>72592052
I don't think that's what he was getting at m8. Both rich and poor, regardless of perceived moral superiority, should have access to some level of medical care (especially in emergencies).

Havijg check ups covered by insurance only hurts poor people who need lower rates when they're actually hurt. Reducing the barrier to entry to administering preventative care and not attaching it to insurance saves everyone money.

It matters but its not the governments job to pay for your healthcare. That's your own responsibility and there are many charities that can help

easist fix:

government pays a certain percent of the cost depending on your income, no matter the expense, kind of like tax brackets but the poor get more assistance

then that percent is scaled based on how necessary the treatment is

I'm gonna be real with you Anon. You pay for it either way. Either Cletus and Jamal get government healthcare...
or they wait and wait and wait until it's a life-threatening medical emergency, go the ER, get healed for many the times the cost if it had been treated early or NOT in an emergency fashion... but of course Cletus and Jamal can't pay, so it gets written off and we the taxpayers pick up the tab.

Just fucking stop paying the insurance Jew and admit that socialized medicine works. Any money you save from taxes by NOT having universal healthcare is negated by insurance and taxes from poor people medical write-offs.

Also, there's something perverse about a company that makes its profits by how many sick people it DOESN'T help. Wouldn't you agree?

Well.. no idea why it is that bad in the US.
Overall I would say that just paying what I need is cheaper than paying for every retard and what not, but seeing what americans pay for minor shit in the hospital... wtf?
Seriously, I need a new elbow soon. Pretty sure that would cost me $50.000+ in the US. Here I don't even care. I pay my few hundret euros and I am good.
Really not sure if healthcare gets a good price here with their might while in the US docs just take what they want...

When will the Americans realise that all inclusive Healthcare is FREE, thats why we brought it out in 1948. We pay a nominal National Insurance Surcharge, which helps pay towards the service. Americans.... What is SOCIALIST about that?

American Hospitals are marvellous. Just can't afford the bloody treatments they are charging.

>>72600238
Not to mention way less old people racking up vast medical expenses.

>>72600328
To be honest, the National Health Service is slightly under strain. But its the best we have.... and we don't let people die on the streets like the USA.

>>72600365
>and we don't let people die on the streets like the USA.

Again. That doesn't happen, hospitals can't turn people away. They treat even illegal immigrants or the homeless.

>>72600197
During the same period, President Truman proposed the creation of a national health program like was being done in Europe, but it met with resistance and he dropped the idea.
>>
>>72600390
The Drug Companies and Insurance Companies run American Healthcare. Even when I worked at Home Depot, my co-pay was ridiculous.
>>
>>72600438
Not really because after Truman's proposed national health service was dropped, most of the burden of health insurance was pushed onto private companies. This wasn't an issue of course in the postwar boom years when we had money to burn and could afford to give a floor worker a middle class salary+pension.

>adults in the United States are far more likely than those in 10 other high-income nations to go without needed health care because of costs and to struggle to afford basic necessities such as housing and healthy food.
>The survey findings also indicate that Americans are sicker than people in other countries and experience high levels of emotional distress.
>about one-third (33%) of U.S. adults went without recommended care, did not see a doctor when sick, or failed to fill prescriptions because of cost. By comparison, as few as 7 percent in the U.K. and Germany and 8 percent in the Netherlands and Sweden experienced these cost problems.
>The U.S. also stands out for its exceptionally high rate of material hardship. Fifteen percent of U.S. adults reported worrying about having enough money for nutritious food and 16 percent reported struggling to afford their rent or mortgage.
>Adults in the U.S. were also the most likely to be in poor health. More than a quarter (28%) of U.S. respondents reported having multiple chronic illnesses—by far the highest rate of any country surveyed
>Fifty-one percent of U.S. adults struggled to find care in the evenings and weekends without going to a hospital emergency department. Between 40 percent and 64 percent of adults in all other countries reported similar difficulties.
>U.S. adults have timely access to specialists. Only 6 percent reported waiting longer than two months for an appointment. In Germany, France, the Netherlands, and Switzerland, rates were similar, ranging from 3 percent to 9 percent.

Basically America spends more for poor to average healthcare. Good to see those free market principals are working!

Fun fact: The top 1% of earners who will never be able to spent a good 50% of their wealth could donate that money towards a universal minimum wage, which would dramatically increase the well being and productivity of billions of individuals for at least the next 100 years.
Humans matter. Without them you wouldn't have electricity, food, shelter or running water.
>>
>>72601077
It has more to do with cultural habits than the NHS, namely that the British diet is quite horrible compared to the diet in France, Spain, etc. Britain has more income inequality and higher poverty rates than many of those cunts as well, but that's neither here nor there.
>>
>>72601065
>aren't benefiting from it,
Unless you make a minimum wage, of course you are benefiting from it. You have access to the best health care in the world and you can afford it. The universal healthcare would be it affordable for everyone but also shitty as fuck. Just look at the UK. You will die waiting for your surgery.

That would be antisemitic.

Also that wouldn't be anywhere fucking close to enough for billions of individuals for 100 years. Are you a retard?

The top 10 richest people in the world have $600 billion dollars.

Even if we gave away ALL of their money it would hardly do shit.

I think you're strongly overestimating how much the top 1% of earners are.

I'm a fucking poorfag and this shit says I'm in the top 14% richest in the world, for example.

Very few people actually can get into medical school and even fewer have the patience to get a degree. Something that might work is making medical school free and basically paying people a monthly fee to go.

The reason so few can get in is because of retarded requirements.

That's why so many qualified Canadians go to the US for medschool and/or residency. There's like a few hundred spots per year for some really retarded reason

>>72601581
Non-emergency people can be delayed

>>72601565
The problem in the US is that people with chronic problems can either pay or not. So you have people that'll have to live with. Then there's deductibles(the amount your health insurance gives you) and those run out. Then you get to put yourself in million dollar+ debt, live with it if it's not instantly fatal

In social countries you'll eventually get your turn eventually.

Canada has one of the lowest fertility rates in the world. Naturally there aren't enough people born here and those who are go to big cities in the bigger provinces. There's a reason why Sasketchewan and Manitoba literally had to open up their immigration rules. They were on the verge of collapse and facing massive depopulation and are now 2 of the faster growing provinces % wise. Have a targeted focus on making Halifax a major city and the atlantic provinces will fix themselves

Huh, I wonder why that could be. Could it be that artificially lowered salaries for doctors disincetivize otherwise talented individuals from becoming doctors?
>>

Queues are intentional and intended to stop people (old people usually) from getting unnecessary treatment. If there's an urgent situation you're always top priority
>>
>>72604384

They don't understand triage. They hear some whiny Canadian complain they waited hours because they went to the hospital with a stubbed toe, a boo boo they needed kissed better.

Last I went to the hospital, I was having heart palpitations and I was in within 5 minutes (most spend just registering with the nurse and giving my health info) for an ECG and a talk with a cardiologist.
>>
>>72592473
Why?

>>72604560
because at the end of the day you only have what you can provide for yourself or pay someone else to provide it for you

your taxes pay for military and police to protect you and everything else follows that
>>
>>72604622
The police, military, justice system and bureaucracy work for you even if you don't pay taxes because you're a bum you know
