Socialized Health Care

Again, just like with the stimulus bill, the President wants congress to rush through a health care bill. Why would he want this? Simple, he knows that if the American people have time to read and or hear the contents of the bill, he would never have support. He doesn't even have support now before a bill is written.

You ever wonder what a socialized health care system is like? Steven Crowder from PJTV have a wonderful video showcasing the difficulties that come from a Canadian style system. If you have the time (twenty minutes) the following video is great. Some shocking scenes include:

  • Being told "Your young you have time"
  • Takes about 2-3 years to get a family doctor
  • One lady needed leg surgery. It took over a year and ended up needing both legs amputated.
  • Another guy needed a tetanus shot and was told they were out, come back later in the week.
  • Cost in taxes for a single parent making 35,000 a year. 59.6%
