It's hard to take comments like this seriously when the private American health care system has worse outcomes and more than double the cost of numerous socialized systems.
You can blindly chant "government isn't the solution" all you want, but it doesn't change the fact that it undeniably is the solution in a large number of countries with functional health systems.
- clarky07 14y agoFunctional does not in any way mean better. I do not want to wait on a list for my health care. As I noted in another comment - http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4466161 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4466161 - this doesn't just have to be "current shitty system" versus "socialism". I never said that the current system is great. All I said is that I'd rather have it than socialism. So many things we can fix easily about our system without going to socialism. And Obamacare is the worst of all worlds. Halfway socialism while still keeping insurance companies. Please tell me how that makes sense.
