the Canadian system might be FAR better than the US system. But its an irrelevant comparison when the USA is broke, in a recession, has quadrupled the national debt which was already absurd, is printing trillions of dollars like their is no consequence.. then wants to make the multi-trillion dollar transition to a new and MASSIVE government bureaucracy when there is no money to pay for the shit we've spent money on in the last year... much less the coming years.
That transition with be a long and painful one assuming we had the money to do it to begin with.
The problems with medical care in the USA isn't a simple question of "socialized" or "privatized" and won't be solved that easily.
As mentioned above by Doug, the cost of great medical insurance in the US is GROSSLY over stated.
