Seems to me need a better blue cross type of deal, take it or leave it. leave big brother out of it.Originally posted by AlbertaFarmer5 View PostHonest questions:
Do you think the actual cost of the system will go up or down if government pays for it, instead of individuals?
Or just as long as it is other peoples money, the cost doesn't matter?

I'm spending $2000/month on care for my son that no govt will pay a dime for.Originally posted by cropgrower View Postwe spend around 10,000 on braces and dental surgery on one of our daughters , and it never even crossed our mind that the gorvenment or anybody else shud pay for it , pretty sad if you think the gorvenment must look after you
You can be a part of a plan that at least makes it deductible.
The cracks are deep and wide for those with no resources. The well meaning are naive and generally don't need help.

Probably go up, just like any insurance-based system. Dentists here, simple cavity repair is $400 under insurance, 245 if pay out of pocket. Root canals under insurance can go to the moon.Originally posted by AlbertaFarmer5 View PostHonest questions:

Most middle income people and up won't be included in the plan, myself included. It will be the kids of the working poor that will, and should, benefit the most.
Always felt bad for the kids that couldn't get proper dental care when they were young, and how they were treated by others in school. It ****ed them up mentally for years and you always knew the ones because they absolutely never smiled with teeth showing.
But hey, **** them right?

Good for you. This wasn't about looking after myself or yours.Originally posted by cropgrower View Postwe spend around 10,000 on braces and dental surgery on one of our daughters , and it never even crossed our mind that the gorvenment or anybody else shud pay for it , pretty sad if you think the gorvenment must look after you
I am more concerned for those that can't afford proper dental care/kids living in poverty.
But if you didn't grow up around poverty, I wouldn't expect you to sympathize with that sect of society too much.

Did i hear correctly in that interview? Quebec already has pharmacare program? Wonder who paid for that.Originally posted by furrowtickler View Post
And the cost of a national dental and pharma program is more than $200B annually? Who is going to pay for that?
Watch our investment flee after they try raising taxes. Says he wants to tax big banks.
