    GAYS ARE MISGUIDED TO SUPPORT socialized medicine From a distance, Canadamay seem to have it all modern medicine and universal insurance.

    Extractions: Many gay voters and activists are government health-care enthusiasts in the United States and have long looked to Canada as a leading light of health care fairness and equity. From a distance, Canada may seem to have it all: modern medicine and universal insurance. Up close the story is quite different. On June 9, the Supreme Court of Canada called the system dangerous and deadly, striking down key laws and turning the country's vaunted health care system on its head. The ruling aptly symbolizes the declining enthusiasm for socialized medicine even in socialist nations. American legislators such as those in the California Senate who approved a single-payer plan this month should take note; so should many gay activists and voters.

    Extractions: NATIONAL ARTS CORRESPONDENT Supporters of socialized health care in Canada and the United States have a seemingly unlikely friend in Rex Morgan M.D., the handsome, deeply decent physician who has been a staple of newspaper comics since 1948. So far there's no record of the Romanow health care commission or the U.S. Secretary of Health having consulted the fictional doctor. However, as any of the 30 million readers of the syndicated strip carried by 300 newspapers in 15 countries can tell you, Rex has come out foursquare in favour of what his creator calls "a single-payer, state-supported health care system." Interestingly, the man behind Rex Morgan's position isn't some "communist or liberal socialist" although he has received plenty of mail calling him that, and worse. He's Woody Wilson, a 55-year-old registered Republican from Tempe, Ariz., who voted for George W. Bush in the 2000 elections. "I believe the country that is supposedly the richest and most powerful in the world shouldn't be forcing its citizens to choose between paying their mortgage or saving their lives. Yet that is what is happening with millions of Americans right now," Mr. Wilson said in an interview this week.

    Extractions: Five out of seven Fraysters surveyed agree: It's time to move to Canada. And it looks like those Fraysters may just be the thin edge of a disenfranchised wedge. The Web is buzzing as newspapers report hundreds of threats to move north, from unhappy Democrats in New York California Oregon Ohio ... Illinois , and, well, Massachusetts (which is really sort of Canada already). The possible Canadian monopoly on disaffected American emigrants prompted nervous Europeans to redouble their efforts to be the place disenchanted Americans go to die. The Canadian immigration Web site had 179,000 visitors Wednesday —six times its usual traffic—the vast majority of which came from the United States. Suggestions to accommodate this mass defection northward include the Toronto Star 's proposal to gerrymander the border and this newly redrawn map . A Web site belonging to this generous collective of sexy Canadians willing to marry Americans —no questions asked—has had 14,000 visitors since Monday. While some demoralized liberals attempt to muster earnest

    Extractions: The Barbarian Invasions is an impressive Canadian film. (Yes, we do make them). The movie won two awards at the 2003 Cannes Film Festival: Best Screenplay and Best Actress, and is currently playing in a number of US cities. It is the story of a man dying of a terminal disease who renews his relationships with his friends and family, especially his adult son. Much of the action takes place in a hospital in Montreal Quebec , where director and screenwriter Denys Arcand dissects the Canadian health care system. (I write this review as the province of Quebec recovers from a streak of violence by health workers' unions. The Quebec government recently announced policies to increase the contracting out of some services to private providers, which obviously attacks those unions' interests. Rioters vandalized a children's hospital where the Premier made a speech, and invaded politicians' offices, hurling pig manure.) The film opens with a nun struggling down the corridor of a crowded ward to administer Holy Communion: patients, health professionals, even electricians, are tripping over each other, packed into an environment of general confusion. And yet, there is another floor of the hospital that is completely closed. Why? We learn from the manager that this is due to a government directive.

    Extractions: by David R. Henderson In my earlier piece on January 2 , I told how I reluctantly became involved in the fight against a ½ cent increase in the local sales tax to fund Natividad, a badly managed government hospital. Lawrence Samuels, the person who encouraged me to help him out, was my co-debater on a panel with Mark Tunzi and Melissa Larsen, two doctors from Natividad. This narrative picks up where the earlier one left off, telling of our November 11 debate at a forum packed heavily with supporters of Measure Q, the sales tax increase. Over and over again, people asked versions of the question, "What happens to health care for uninsured people when Natividad closes?" Lawrence and I kept answering that we couldn't know that it would close and that if it did, it would probably turn into a private hospital. In retrospect, I think this question wore me down. What I should have done each time is answered the question completely and then each time gone on to raise another point against Measure Q so that questioners in the audience would see that there was a cost to their side from asking the question. I did think of something, however, that was almost as good. After about the sixth time the question, "What do you do about medical care for poor people when Natividad closes down?", I said:

The Supreme Court took the case on appeal after plaintiffs argued the province`s ban on private care was a virtual death sentence for residents who have been unable to get timely medical attention.

They have found, through experience, that state medical care is too expensive, too slow and inefficient, and, most important, it doesn't provide adequate care for most people." ( Told You So , p. 153) CON 2 "Mr. Limbaugh's claim simply isn't true," says Dr. Hugh Scully, chair of the Canadian Medical Association's Council on Healing and Finance. "The vast majority of Canadians, including physicians, receive their care here in Canada. Those few Canadians who receive health care in the U.S. most often do because they have winter homes in the Stateslike Arizona and Floridaand have emergent health problems there." Medical care in Canada is hardly "too expensive"; it's provided free and covered by taxes.

    Extractions: hostName = '.typepad.com'; Email Don Boudreaux Email Russ Roberts Subscribe to this blog's feed Main Among the finest articles ever written by my formidable colleague and co-blogger Russ Roberts is this essay , originally appearing ten years ago in the Wall Street Journal , on the problems that arise when decisions to consume are separated from decisions to pay. If you’ll pay a substantial share of the cost of whatever it is I choose to consume, I’ll choose to consume more than I would if I were responsible for paying my full consumption bill. In short, if you're footing most or all of my consumption bill, I'll consume irresponsibly. The point seems to me to be incontestably correct. And yet, many Canadians continue to fancy themselves "lucky" to be saddled with such a system for providing their health care. Read the words of the Canadian lawyer quoted in this report . Go figure. How on earth can a system that invites consumers to treat a scarce good as if it were free possibly work? Isn’t it inevitable – isn’t it utterly unavoidable – that any such system will suffer dysfunctions and troubles that make consumers worse off rather than better off? The story linked to above details some of the predicable maladies now infecting Canada’s insanely stupid health-care system.

100. Gore Endorses Canada's Medical System - Mises Institute
     Socialist medicine is Egalitarian. It is no secret that most Canadians andEuropeans consider themselves to be morally superior to Americans,  
     http://www.mises.org/story/1102
     
     Extractions: Monday, September 19, 2005 [Posted on Wednesday, November 20, 2002] In a recent newspaper interview, Al Gore finally came out of the socialist closet and declared that the "solution" to what he deems as a "crisis" in U.S. medical care is for the government to impose a "single payer system." While some folks might consider Gore's remarks a setback to the possibilities of actually establishing free market healthcare in this country, actually I believe it presents an opportunity for advocates of freedom and private property to make the case that should have been made all along. It would seem to the casual observer that Gore's remarks come at a curious time, his party having suffered some terrible electoral defeats in the last election cycle. Furthermore, a proposal to create a Canadian-like system in leftist Oregon was defeated 80–20 at the polls. Surely if Oregon voters, many of whom are as left-wing as their counterparts in San Francisco, were not willing to impose a socialist system in their state, I doubt that the majority of American voters are going to imitate Canada. Then again, never underestimate the awful possibilities that democracy can create, especially since the driving force of modern politics is raw envy. At the same time, it seems that Gore has forgotten that the present Republican majorities in Congress are due in large part to the failed "HillaryCare" initiative of nearly a decade ago when the Clinton Administration attempted to
