What can’t we have a free healthcare system? Europe and Canada have great healthcare systems.
What can’t we have a free healthcare system? Europe and Canada have great healthcare systems
Why do we have to have always the same fucking thread every day?
It’s an issue that deserves attention.
every day?
ok, ok go ahead I won't bother you
yes you can have free healthcare system, it's just that the lobbys in your government won't allow it to happen because it's their bussiness
But the Canadian system sucks.
>free
I'm okay with that. However:
>I'm not paying for someone who want to cut their dicks off and turn into "pussies"
>I'm not paying for their dental or visual shit
>A third will be paid by health insurance, a third will be paid by me, and a third will be paid with taxpayers
You really think its a good idea to have free health care in a country with the most fast food per capita?
spanish system used to be good, but it got cut, since the global crisis happened, now it sucks with long queues, long days or months of waiting itf you want something looked at by a specialist. It wasn't like that before, it was a solid good health care system with very pro medics. We still have pro medics, but they are saturated.
pay for your own shit, faggot
Lemme fix that up...
Several reasons. First off, Americans don't want it. Second, the US already has a well-developed health insurance industry, and they don't like lawmakers interfering with their market. Third, entitlement programs are very difficult to enact in general. Fourth, We've got niggers that would put unnecessary strain on the system.
>i should pay for other peoples lifestyle choices
how about you suck my dick and learn some personal responsibility you fucking leech.
Capitalism. You aren't a filthy commie are you?
the free healthcare is so bad in canada that i actually pay for a private doctor
but my insurance pays for 70% of it at least
so yeah, free healthcare is shit but private healthcare + work insurance is the best
america is doing it right
notice how things that aren't covered by insurance (like lasik) get cheaper and cheaper every year, are far more safe, and more widely available.
its almost like when you give people an incentive to be a good doctor and compete something called abundance happens.
because if we had socialized medicine, we wouldn't have enough money to sustain the army that protects europe from russian or chinese invasion.
without competition prices won't lower and quality won't go up.
plus inventions will get rarer, I just think it isn't necessary.
>Americans don't want it.
some of them might be dumb enough to, but not all of them
pro tip: you can have public health care and still go to private one
someone pays for it
if you don't then everyone else does
I don't want to pay more because some dumb fucker had to go the hospital
I don't want to pay more because someone weaker than me has a health problem.
we save money and/or have insurance
I have needed medical care once in my life for stitches and I refuse to pay for everyone elses bullshit
>Canada
Lol
mutts will defend this
That's not how the healthcare industry works. If you are in an emergency condition you go to whatever fucking hospital is closest to you. There isn't any time to pick and choose and shop around for the best hospital to save you from the heart attack you're having. There is also a shortage of family doctors in the country which means you have to wait months for an appointment. If you don't like your doctor good luck because you already paid him for your visit and it's another few months to get another appointment somewhere else. Generally most doctors are good and it's not like trying to shop for a new TV. This is the brain damage you have when you are brainwashed by a capitalist perspective.
That's the majority of Sup Forums until something interesting actually happens throughout the day. It's repeats of repeats of repeats ad nauseam. Just hide or report shit and hope that a mod does their job.
Because americans suck ass at taking care of their health and every idiot will come out of the woodwork to get treated clogging up the system?Doctors will demand more due to this added stess and likely more staff so we'll all be taxed more and ship in more pajeets and other assorted trash.
Our country is brainwashed by capitalist mind disease. They can't ever admit they're wrong. Until they have an emergency and go bankrupt because they can't pay the hospital bill. A capitalist healthcare system doesn't make sense.
If the government took money out of your paycheck to pay for your cable modem, would the internet service be free?
OP might be literally retarded.
Socialism isn’t communism. There’s a difference in the two.
>Because americans suck ass at taking care of their health and every idiot will come out of the woodwork to get treated clogging up the system
Capitalist culture. We focus on cheap and fast yet unhealthy food to keep up with our fast surplus labor wagecucking lifestyle. Cities are designed where you have to drive around so we don't walk as much people from other countries. It's a self feeding cycle. Capitalist solutions to fix capitalist problems.
>"free" healthcare shitholes
>everyone goes to the doctor every fucking hour
>get diagnosed with some nonexistent mental illness
>get prescribed soy-based "medicine" that gives you mental illnesses
>ruling party exploits your mental illness to gain your vote
>America
>don't go to the doctor for years
>am perfectly fine
Both are against the private ownership of the means of production. Communism is a term Marx used and expanded upon. Here is a helpful reference guide.
I have never waited more than an hour for urgent care, and the one time I went to emerg it was less than 2 hours between the time of injury and leaving the hospital patched up with an appointment for a specialist 2 days later.
You can believe Amerilards pay too much for health insurance while also not believing that a huge government bureaucracy and ass-blasting tax rates is the solution to paying too much for health insurance.
Please explain why a grossly inefficient bureaucracy becomes more efficient by making it larger.
protip: you can't
Why don't they want an African healthcare system?
>Why can't we sacrifice quality of care for you, the person who actually pays for health insurance, and just give it for free to everyone making the chances you'll actually survive a major surgery/sickness even smaller?
No thanks fag. There's a reason so many canadians come to the US for major surgeries and it's because their system is shit it takes 5 seconds to google the numbers.
>getting hit by a car is a lifestyle choice
here, have a (you)
>Bud Light isn't Budweiser
Shit is still shit no matter how you spell it
k thx
except I have literally done that, I got myself a family doctor and hospital, meaning I go to one specific doctor and one specific hospital.
Just because you don't do something, doesn't mean others don't
We have a big problem with capitalism. Any changes to it while keeping the same inherent system is like using duct tape to fix a broken, inefficient car. The solution is a ground-up systemic change i.e. read Marx
You wont need tax, bureaucracy, or companies raping your dead bankrupt corpse to death.
The NHS cancelled all non-emergency surgeries for for the next few weeks because they don't have enough staff or money to perform them.
I have to wait weeks for a doctors appointment.
I got flu at the beginning of the month and I was better before I even got a 5 minute phonecall from my GP.
>great
I have to wait for 3 hours to get a recipe for my coughing medicine.
>hurrr read Marx
dipshit, if you read any marx at all and had an ounce of history sloshing around in that skull of yours you'd know his writings only helped to improve capitalism and fine-tune it while simultaneously showing how shit communist economies are.
you chose to be apathetic and unproductive to have enough to pay for that catastrophic insurance. you chose to not look while crossing the street.
what does this have to do with me? if you're so unproductive you can't get such basic expenses paid you don't deserve help. how about you be a good person to yourself, your family, your community and so they can be your backup in times of need?
>Any changes to it while keeping the same inherent system is like using duct tape to fix a broken, inefficient car.
capitalism is not a system, its the consequence of voluntary exchanges.
if by system, you mean our mixed market economy, what specific cases are you referring to would be "like using duct tape to fix a broken, inefficient car"? provide an example or your just talking about capitalism with a negative tone and not providing any real evidence or cases of issues where a third party would be justified.
>but yurop has less spending i want that i dont want help i am confuze
The free market is dead, at least in the west. The US and many European countries (i.e Germany) have implemented socialist reforms to the capitalist system. The results are 20 billion US$ dept for the US and a 43% tax rate for Germany. What we now have is social market economy, which discriminates against CEOs and entrepreneurs. Fuck, a socialist would have won the election if Clinton didn't sabotage the votes. And you are telling me capitalism is at wrong here?
If you are unable to manage your own life then you should fucking end it or stop going to college.
1. You dont pay enough taxes, question is how do you raise it if you want European style health care.
Everybodies mortgaged you have enough for groceries, how do you pay that many taxes. it's not only that there's an extra 21% taxes at the store, and gasoline taxes to $1.60 per liter
You got to have some sort of solidarity too, how to get that with so many different people, our systems go way back to when there were homogeneous societies where people put more in than they take out.
you are obviously young and retarded
You forgot to turn the right panel into merchants, tho
>paying for a doctor in Canada
>all the very best doctors can be seen for free, including the one you pay to see.
There's a sucker born every minute
>Yeah because people who get hit by cars don't receive treatment here.
Fuck off we have way too many leaches to try and put a fresh money vein in the public water to feed on. We're already 20 trillion in debt.
We cant pay it eaither, an average Dutch person costs the state €40.000 but an average immigrant costs us €300.000 over a life time, there's all kinds of problems to see in the future.
Socialism is a mind virus. It makes people look at the problems that plague our society, and say "this would be better if we consolidated political power", with the string attached to the people. It assumes that a certain group of people are angels, who can assess and fulfill the needs of "the people". It's the worst scam in modern history, "Just over control of your healthcare, and money, and we'll make it for the people, comrade".
I went once to see a doctor when I was in the USA. Was the most incredible healthcare service I ever received. I was blown away.
All I had to do was by a £20 travel insurance.
Underrated.
Ever hear of the Fox & the Grapes, user?
Ever wonder why your country is the only one in the western world without any nice things?
We already have free health care for anyone old, broke, or here illegally
The rest of you fuckwads can pay your own way
