I've got family in Canada that hasn't had a problem, but they know of folks who have.

A standardized system would save over 30% of our current health care costs. But as long as there isn't a national system with a national standard...good luck.

For a person who throws around the word ignorant as much as you do...have you compared the tax rate on the money Canadians get to keep. Don't they have a coin up there that is a Looney? hmmmm.

This is true.. BUT I hate insurance companies and think that they are a racket -- therefore, I think we should take away their corporate shield and price fixing and allowing the public decide which backing to go with using the free market to do so.
