Well, The question of whether healthcare is a "right" was once again addressed in the thread. It certainly is great for every person to have healthcare-if they choose to have it. Children are a special topic, but the rest of us supposedly have free will. You start with an assumption that everyone deserves/wants/seeks a certain level of immediate and on-going medical treatment. How do you afford homeopathy, chiropractic, mid-wives, etc., their place in the healthcare world? You understand that some walk amongst us who choose these options and actively avoid "conventional" medical care. Do you think the WHO includes this in their assessment of quality healthcare? I just wish I had known about Canadian medical care before I blew all this dough on my heart transplant...
