Dude, you can’t:

here comes the straw man lol

Say the US healthcare system is worse than Canada’s

it is, obviously, especially when you consider how few actually have access to healthcare and the millions that are bankrupted by US healthcare

Blame private interest for this being the case

it's literally an unnecessary middle man. you're advocating for enriching private insurance companies with HUGE margins while they ghoulishly deny their customers life saving care.

Then use Canada’s public healthcare system doing something awful, as an example to prove this.

you advocated for privatizing it. pfft.

No dude, all I said was the title of the original post was clearly absurd.
