Look at the photos in the article. See how it is mostly men but they focus on the one woman in the big group of men? You have to be very suggestible to buy such an obviously conjured narrative.

Canada has single payer and rising administrative overhead is a major problem here too. Looking at spending on medical staff vs spending on administrative staff, the former has barely gone up at all while the later has gone up over 500%.

I find just the opposite, myself. It is not satisfying to clean a gunked up carb or change a dirty filter or spark plug. To me it feels like irritating drudgery I am forced to undertake because of the physical limitations of reality that
