    I basicly told my good Dr I had to know or that was my option.
    Got in the right line up and one I saw said there would be nothing left if not done soon.
    As I said above,can't imagine how it can go better.
    One down and one to go.
    Says 3 mo or less.

      The trouble is that you won't find many with some sense involved in this. Too many Chucks, whose black and white view of everything blinds them to any workable common sense solution.
      So we will carry on until it collapses under its own weight.

        And once everyone drives the same shitty Lada or Belarus, we'll all be happy.

          The US health care system cost more per capita by far than Canada and there are many people in the US without insurance or underinsured and have no coverage because they can't afford it.

          If you have a chronic health condition, good luck finding affordable coverage.

          Health insurance companies routinely deny coverage to ensure they make a profit. They count on the fact that most people can't afford to fight a denial of coverage.

          There are hundreds of bloated US health insurance companies with a complex web of rules and bureaucracy.

          There are problems in the Canadian system that can be fixed. But it's universal and affordable for everyone.

          And for those people who want to jump the lines you can head to the US or any other country and pay for what you want.

            As AF5 says it’s black and white for chuck. US or Canadian system are the only options in his world. Most of the top 10 rated medical systems in the world are hybrid.

            We don’t have to have a US system to get better outcomes.
