lilcapo2003 asked:
On his show tonight (8/18) and I’m sure many other times, he said that every government form of healthcare has failed. He said its failed in Canada, Britain, and in France…
First off, all three have different systems. Canada has a single payer system, in Britain, the government actually employs the doctors, nurses, etc. (not the case in Canada), and France has a mix of government run healthcare, but also has a large portion of private insurers. France strongly regulates the healthcare industry in pricing of meds, treatment, etc., even for private hospitals. The WHO, London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, and the Commonwealth Fund have all stated that France has the best healthcare in the world! Every one of them has unequivocally said France has the best results with terminal illness, best access to treatment, and overall the best quality of care for their citizens… and they pay half of what we do!!! How can anyone believe Hannity and other conservatives when they say all of these programs are the same and all have failed?

Give GENUINE answers. Not stupid name calling I would like to hear some real arguments on why Hannity is right.
Everythings peachy: you said the Canadian system is not sustainable… what about ours?????
And hannity is never wrong???
My goodness, trust yourself to think! He is wrong on this one. And my question was in regard to France in most part and how he made them out to be the same.
