I think you’re severely exaggerating. Also, the main reason it’s not in the greatest place right now is mainly because privatization continues to slowly chip away at it. Conservative governments (and even liberals, to a lesser degree) are trying to degrade service so they can sell it back to you at a much higher rate. We certainly do need to do better in having enough family doctors, and cutting down ER wait times, but for big problems that have solutions, we still do a very good job.

Case in point, a family member of mine recently underwent spinal surgery, and I have to say once the system realized there was a reasonable probability of success it hauled ass to get them in ASAP. This surgery elsewhere would have left my family member essentially destitute. Instead it cost us literally zero dollars above the standard tax cost of healthcare.
