There is not one country that anyone can point to where socialized healthcare is the envy of other countries or a leader in healthcare. And all those countries are much smaller. What makes these foolish liberals to thing we can do it in the US without destroying the BEST healthcare system in the world that is the envy of every other country. That does not mean we should not address how everyone has access to medical coverage .... but socializing it is not the answer. What government program can we point to that we can say they do it better than free enterprise?

Why is it that people from other countries that has socialized healthcare come to this country when it is something serious. Because we have the best doctors and best medicines. So when they nationaize medicines, who will develop new ones when they eliminate the economic incentives. who will become doctors when the amount they can earn is controlled by the government.

I used to travel to asia on business ... Korea has national health plan (south Korea as a country is about the size of Florida) and people wait weeks to see a doctor and it is basically a clinic. Forget emergency rooms unless you are dying.

But the liberals think we can have our government run this successfully????
