Quote:Canada has a single-payer health care system, which is similar to the American Medicare system. It covers all people in Canada, including those with cystic fibrosis. People in the United States receive their insurance — if they do at all — from a number of sources.
Compared with patients in the United States who had private insurance coverage, patients in Canada had a similar risk of early death. Compared with patients who had public insurance like Medicaid, Canadians with cystic fibrosis had a 44 percent lower risk of early death. And compared with Americans who were uninsured, Canadians had a 77 percent lower risk of early death.
Health insurance and hockey. If only the weather was better.
Fuck you Minn, how the hell are the uber rich going to feed themselves if they don't gut Medicaid/Medicare to fund their tax breaks the rest of us have to make up for? You are one heartless bastard. Ok, I'll give you one thing, toooooooo cold for me.
