Listen, I'm married to a Canadian. All of my in-laws live in Canada. None of them has any trouble getting the medical care they need, and they don't have to wait any longer for their care than people with the best insurance in the US have to wait. My husband got the exact same level of care when he lived in Canada (most of his life) as he got when he had the very best insurance money can buy here in the US. If one were to poll the people of Canada and ask them which system they would prefer - the one they have or the one we have, the vast majority of them would not give up their system in order to have one like ours. Many of them feel that their system should be funded better than it is, but very few of them would give it up.

So which country can we bus our fifty million uninsured to so they can get care?
