....into the things he dealt with under Canada's socialized medicine, and why it's important that we not let it happen to us here in the U.S.
Key point:
"And if we measure a health care system by how well it serves its sick citizens, American medicine excels. Five-year cancer survival rates bear this out. For leukemia, the American survival rate is almost 50%; the European rate is just 35%. Esophageal carcinoma: 12% in the U.S., 6% in Europe. The survival rate for prostate cancer is 81.2% here, yet 61.7% in France and down to 44.3% in England — a striking variation."
Yet the Dems/Lefties/"Progressives" always tell us how "swell" this type of medical care will be when we get it here.
