In all situations the best course of action is to simply blame Canada https://youtu.be/kYB6ZSwdrvM
They're not even a real country anyway.
They are basically the US but with healthcare and French people!
The Healthcare is a total wreck. Here you get a 50 % chance of surviving instead of a 100% of going broke
50% chance of surviving? What are you talking about?
A man went to the hospital, waited for 16hrs to be seen by a doctor, just to be sent home. He died later that day.

You act like that doesn't happen with regularity in the US.
I act like I have no idea how it works there. I'm glad I don't live there
That only means that healthcare need more funding, not that healthcare is bad.
If I were to find one case, just like that in the US, would you say that no healthcare is bad ?
I agree, one case is not enough to justify calling the whole system a wreck. The general state, any day each hospital and more clinics are overloaded and very inefficient.
Lots of medical personnel left during the pandemic and never hired enough to make up for the loss.
I've had care in private hospitals in other places (poorer countries) and they were at least an order of magnitude better. The hyperbole of total wreck mostly means my disappointment in the system
I hear it's full of uncle-fuckers anyway.
