In theory, tax payer paid healthcare is a good idea. In theory.

      It’s here because Canada is the only country in the world with tax payer paid healthcare. Wait, what? Most countries in the world have tax payer paid healthcare? I meant in North America. Wait, what? Mexico has tax payer paid healthcare too?

        Many countries have it, Canada is just the poster child for how bad it can be. The UK is also infamous for the NHS, but MAID is another level of fucked up.

        And yet millions are coming to America. Way to promote the Mexican health care system. They love it so much they run across the border.

      No, because liberals killed a disabled person with horrid policy. You got it backwards.

        Explain how a single patient death is a valid argument against the thousands (probably more) of times privatized, profit-driven healthcare in the US has done that or worse.

        When you look at who is preserving and enabling this situation, it’s congressional conservatives. Look at their voting records. Review C-SPAN coverage and watch it actually happen. You cannot manipulate reality with online arguments, only accept/reject it.

        What you have right here is a straw man argument. A single case is anecdotal, the trend however is much more important.
