So your response to the shit the US is in is to point at what might happen in the EU. There will be many problems ahead for a number of countries the difference is it will be felt the hardest in the US. I would not gloat over what may or may not happen elsewhere when my own country was going down the pan.
Any system has to be better than any US model. Even patients with health insurance are getting ripped off and when people are queuing in fields for free health care you know the shits hit the fan.
America will never have a good health, education etc. untill it stops spending trillions on war and weapons, stops all the fat cats bleeding the country dry and all the other turds that are running the show or should that be ruining it.
Health care in the EU is generally very good and it could be so in the US if the people just got up off their fat arses and did something about it.
Chrissy and his ilk keep moving the goal posts, then claim things are "unfair".
The only reason he doesn't eat shit sandwiches is because he doesn't like bread.

The usual rogues gallery of ignorance.
Our system is incredibly expensive and unfair. The French system is better.
We could learn from them.
Yes we could learn to have 40 percent taxes and unemployment up the ass. Of course, you would like the "up the ass" part.

MANY advocates of a universal healthcare system in the United States look to Canada for their model. While the Canadian healthcare system has much to recommend it, there's another model that has been too long neglected. That is the healthcare system in France.
Although the French system faces many challenges, the World Health Organization rated it the best in the world in 2001 because of its universal coverage, responsive healthcare providers, patient and provider freedoms, and the health and longevity of the country's population. The United States ranked 37.
The French system is also not inexpensive. At $3,500 per capita it is one of the most costly in Europe, yet that is still far less than the $6,100 per person in the United States.
An understanding of how France came to its healthcare system would be instructive in any renewed debate in the United States.
That's because the French share Americans' distaste for restrictions on patient choice and they insist on autonomous private practitioners rather than a British-style national health service, which the French dismiss as "socialized medicine." Virtually all physicians in France participate in the nation's public health insurance, Sécurité Sociale.
Their freedoms of diagnosis and therapy are protected in ways that would make their managed-care-controlled US counterparts envious. However, the average American physician earns more than five times the average US wage while the average French physician makes only about two times the average earnings of his or her compatriots. But the lower income of French physicians is allayed by two factors. Practice liability is greatly diminished by a tort-averse legal system, and medical schools, although extremely competitive to enter, are tuition-free. Thus, French physicians enter their careers with little if any debt and pay much lower malpractice insurance premiums.
Nor do France's doctors face the high nonmedical personnel payroll expenses that burden American physicians. Sécurité Sociale has created a standardized and speedy system for physician billing and patient reimbursement using electronic funds.
It's not uncommon to visit a French medical office and see no nonmedical personnel. What a concept. No back office army of billing specialists who do daily battle with insurers' arcane and constantly changing rules of payment.
Moreover, in contrast to Canada and Britain, there are no waiting lists for elective procedures and patients need not seek pre-authorizations. In other words, like in the United States, "rationing" is not a word that leaves the lips of hopeful politicians.

When faced with the truth the right either insults or changes the subject.
That's when I know they have nothing.

I love my current health care and health coverage.
I say lets throw out this hr3200 bill that wont give us better care but reduce quality and availablity and pass a new bill that deals with ONLY insurance coverage.
Give the insurance companies tax break incentives to give out heavily discounted plans to lower income people...those who make too much for medicare but not enough to buy their own insurance.
Then pass tort reform.
We dont need over 1000 pages to do this. We need over 1000 pages to drastically alter the sytem instead of just simply extending coverage to more americans.
The truth here is that you're a fucking pussy whiner, who sees the "greener grass" but is too much of a coward or lazy ass to go over to the other side of the fence.When faced with the truth the right either insults or changes the subject.
