Don't you wish you could be happy about your health care, instead of paying for the little crap the Insurance carriers dole out to you??
Germans of all ages have long enjoyed fully portable health
insurance that provides what is effectively first-dollar coverage for a very
comprehensive package of benefits. Furthermore, unlike U.S. patients, who
increasingly find their choice of doctor and hospital limited through the
technique of managed competition, German patients still enjoy completely
free choice of provider at the time illness strikes. In cross-national opinion
surveys conducted by the Louis Harris organization in conjunction with the
Harvard School of Public Health, both German patients and physicians
express relatively greater satisfaction with their health care system than
their American counterparts express with their system.1

(Summer 1990): 185-192; and R. Blendon et al., “Physicians’ Perspectives on Caring
for Patients in the United States, Canada, and West Germany,” The New England
Journal of Medicine (8 April 1994): 1011-1016.

Comparing Germany to the U.S. is not exactly a fair comparison.
Not fair? The Retards think comparing Canada, with a total population smaller than CA. is fair, so I am giving you a very close comparison.
Lets start with the fact that the U.S. has 4 times the population. Having a universal health care system for 350 million people is not the same as having it for 82 million.
Yes, so America has 4 times the capital to work with, but both share about the same taxation formula, America having a slight advantage when all is said and done.
And I really don't give a damn if Germans like their gubmint health care. They also like their gubmint extermination of the Jewish race at one time.
Well there you go, showing arrogance and ignorance and bias. At least you made 2 good sentences before you FAILED miserably.
The cold hard truth is government run health care system in the U.S. will lead to rationing of health care. Thats were you get your "death panels". And if you don't believe me then look at Ezekiel Emanual of the Obama Administration.
No, there is no proof of your scare tactics and delusions. None whatsoever. You have a German model, and if you follow it, it will produce the same results.
Heres the paper he wrote: http://econopundit.com/ezekiel_emmauel.pdf
Yes, some 400 pages. I downloaded it, and thank you.
