August 5, 2005 R.I.P., Canadian Socialized Medicine Canada is very close to accepting its public push for private health care insurance . The two-tiered system, which will quickly suck a huge amount of energy and resources from the public system, now looks inevitable. He said a top priority was to reduce long waiting times for Canadians to see primary and specialist physicians. The country is plagued by numerous accounts of patients dying while they wait for care, or being forced to travel to the United States and other countries for specialized services. Those opposed to privatizing the public health system worry it would lead to a two-tier approach in which wealthier patients would jump to the front of waiting lists and eventually lure physicians into private practice.

I made up all the stuff about people not receiving health care in the US, the only people who do not are lazy, good-for-nothing bums who refuse to work, and choose to live in the street because they like the outdoors, just like Ronnie said. And I have to admit, our three children were born in an igloo in the back yard. When the labour pains started, the soonest they could schedule a birth was 3 months away. Likewise, my wife's surgery, and my own, and my mother-in-law's recent hospitalization, they were all a hallucination, we did it ourselves, with a butter knife in the kitchen, but I was too ashamed to admit it. Actually, everybody in Canada died weeks ago from the neglect imposed by our socialist medical system, we're just keeping it a secret. My Socialist Party Masters (NDP) will probably haul me off to thought reform camp for revealing this, and without a hand gun I will be powerless to stop them. I forgot to mention it, until reminded in a later post by Rebecca, that of course, they must have used my universal Canadian ID card to track me down. Oh, if I had only listened to your warnings! If only everybody here had had a .45 and doctors were earning high five figure incomes, then we, in Canada, could have enjoyed the prosperity, success and delights of the US. Oh, how I wish I were still in the US, helping to pay for the Savings and Loan entrepreneurs, contributing to the Pentagon's supplies of materiel (estimated as having enough in some categories to last for centuries) and being able to shoot strangers through the door without fear of interference...

So in honour of all my friends who are becoming Freudian neurotics due to essay overdrive, and are subsequently bubbling up and out with horrible physical manifestations of their inner turmoils (His boils were as big as a small mouse!), I offer you some comic relief at someone else's misery namely, my own.

This, of course, has entailed repeated visits to the McGill Health Clinic and the gracious care of the staff there.

If it started I could see it becoming underfunded b/c eventually someone who hates government + government programs would slash funding.

Click Here to Visit our Sponsor Socialized Medicine: The Canadian Experience by Pierre Lemieux The Canadian public health system is often put forward as an ideal for Americans to emulate. It provides all Canadians with free basic health care: free doctors' visits, free hospital ward care, free surgery, free drugs and medicine while in the hospital plus some free dental care for children as well as free prescription drugs and other services for the over-65 and welfare recipients. You just show your plastic medicare card and you never see a medical bill. This extensive national health system was begun in the late 1950s with a system of publicly funded hospital insurance, and completed in the late 1960s and early 1970s when comprehensive health insurance was put into place. The federal government finances about 40 per cent of the costs, provided the provinces set up a system satisfying federal norms. All provincial systems thus are very similar, and the Quebec case which we will examine is fairly typical. One immediate problem with public health care is with the funding. Those usually attracted to such a "free" system are the poor and the sick those least able to pay. A political solution is to force everybody to enroll in the system, which amounts to redistributing income towards participants with higher health risks or lower income. This is why the Canadian system is universal and compulsory.

This is why the Canadian system is universal and compulsory. Even if participation is compulsory in the sense that everyone has to pay a health insurance premium (through general or specific taxes), some individuals will be willing to pay a second time to purchase private insurance and obtain private care. If you want to avoid this double system, you do as in Canada: you legislate a monopoly for the public health insurance system.

With Clear Eyes, Sincere Hearts and Open Minds Socialized Medicine Leaves a Bad Taste in Patients' Mouths Download PDF of this article Last fall, a colleague of mine visited the Canadian province of Manitoba. With just a few days left before the elections, political campaigning there was at a fever pitch. My friend was astonished to observe that the dominant issue was indeed hospital food. "Never mind that they taste like cardboard," says Holle. "Never mind that individual tastes and circumstances might dictate decentralized food services. Re-heated meals became a symbol of efficiency for the supposedly compassionate do-gooders in government. Why pay hundreds of workers in dozens of Manitoba kitchens when we can just zap up frozen dinners from Toronto?" As it turned out, the incumbent government in Manitoba and many of its supporters went down to defeat. Vile victuals were a key reason.
