Sure thing, thanks for providing all the specific details, Q.

In any case, my point was this: the health care plan progressives envisioned when Obama was campaigning barely resembles the corporate-friendly plan they got. Publicly provided and easily affordable health care that is paid for by people's taxes should be a civil right in any modern social system. It is considered a civil right by most Canadians.

A country that does not ensure that ALL its citizens have equal and universal access to ALL the health care they require at an affordable price is under a corrupt system, as far as I'm concerned, a system that deserves to be overthrown by its people.
