... "Yeah, but I suspect that a lot of people in the country would be delighted to pay more in taxes if they had comprehensive health care as a human right," Sanders claimed. "I live 50 miles away from the Canadian border. You go to the doctor any time you want. You don't take out your wallet. You have heart surgery, you have a heart transplant, you come out of the hospital, it costs you nothing. ...
Crazy Bernie is conveniently forgetting one thing ... health care procedures in Canada, especially the major ones, are heavily rationed. In actuality, you go into a Canadian hospital, request heart surgery or a heart transplant, and leave the hospital after being told to come back in a year or two. Meanwhile, the hospital is off the hook because you die before you can be scheduled for the procedure you need to stay alive.
