Yes, i'm sure you heard that on Hate Radio once, and you think it's true.
Old people go to the doctor because they are sick. Guess what, old people get lonely in Single Payer countries, and they actually manage to live longer.
This is the kind of thing that reveals you as someone who worships a fantasy.....
1. I don't listen to hate radio.
2. The first time I heard about it was from a doctor friend.
3. It has been written on repeatedly:
UGA study: Older adults might find a doctor’s visit like seeing a friend
"This finding made sense to us," Jayawardhana said. "You build a relationship with your physician over the years, so a visit to the doctor's office is like seeing a friend. Hospitalizations, on the other hand, require a referral from a doctor, and you don't know who you will see."
Treating the loneliness epidemic: elderly people visiting doctors for social interaction
Elderly people booking GP appointments just to avoid being lonely
And you can find a host of them.
It is funny that someone who is loud-mouthed as you are about our current health care system could be so ignorant on such a topic. It is a real issue.
More and more it is evident you are on this board to spout a POV and not to share information or discuss matters.
