Bosco, It is quite clear that Mario's input here is the equivalent of the last kick of a dying donkey. Obama will change the US medical structure, this year, to allow US residents to catch up with the socialist medical facilities every industrial nation offers today. Obama has no choice. The cost of providing medical coverage to their employees is so high today that US capital would rather invest outside the US, so as to take advantage of the medical coverage provided by foreign govts. GM (Government Motors) is a prime reflection of the medical and retirement challenges that US industry faces today. Secondly, Obama is hell bent on cutting the cost of US medical services.

Mario responds: Folks, If Mervyn had read all my posts he would know that I patiently correct all the misinformation he routinely posts on Goanet:-)) See more below. Mervyn wrote: However, If I have understood Obama correctly, Obama wants to correct the current situation in the US where people WITH health insurance are going bankrupt. The 'for profit' health insurance companies are simply refusing to pay for medical services when people fall sick. Mario responds: To begin with, Mervyn has not understood Obama correctly. Even Obama has no idea what he is talking about, which is why legislators from his own party are confused and refused to vote on destroying the American health care system before leaving on a one month vacation. However, Obama has categorically rejected a Canadian-style system that Mervyn and Bosco love so much as seen in this report from ABC News: http://blogs.abcnews.com/politicalpunch/2009/07/abc-news-yunji-de-nies-and-sunlen-miller-report-president-barack-obama-says-he-does-not-want-to-raise-taxes-on-health-care-b.html Excerpt: The first question came via YouTube. The President was asked why, unlike most industrialized nations, he is not pursuing a single-payer health care system. He answered that such a system would be “hugely disruptive” because of the current systems reliance on employer based healthcare. “We should be able to find a way to create a uniquely American solution to this problem that controls cost but preserves the innovation that is introduced in part with a free- market system,” the President said. [end of excerpt] Secondly, Mervyn's assertion that the insurance companies are simply refusing to pay for medical services is clearly a bald faced falsehood. I had very expensive treatments for cancer and paid only a pittance in deductibles, etc. Even people without insurance can get emergency treatment at any hospital in the country at no cost to them. I have no idea how anyone can write such poppycock that can be shown to be false so easily. Besides, I wonder if Mervyn and Bosco are hired by companies that are not expected to make a profit, because they are constantly referring to the greed of companies that make a profit or falsifying what they do as shown above. Mervyn wrote: Just the other day, Barrack (blessed be, his name) said on national TV that the US is spending $6,000 MORE per person than Canada does on health services and yet is no where close to having the free health services that all retired Canadians have. Mario responds: I wonder which part of Canada Mervyn is living in. If he had read my posts he would have seen the following reports on the FREE health care system that he is trying to fool us about: http://www.cnn.com/2009/POLITICS/07/06/canadian.health.care.system/ and the following undercover investigation: http://www.pjtv.com/video/Louder_With_Crowder/_PJTV_Undercover%3A_Steven_Crowder_Investigates_CanadaCareWill_ObamaCare_Be_Any_Better%3F/2153/;jsessionid=abclC2GRco1Bp-Bftqmls Anyone who is familiar with this subject would know that in return for the $6000 more on average that it costs in the US, the quality of care in the US far exceeds Canada's third world system where health care is rationed. They don't even have enough physicians or equipment and are put on waiting lists even to see a primary care physician and even longer waiting lists for medical procedures that we can get within a few hours in the US if needed. Even without insurance if it is an emergency. Mervyn wrote: The primary issue burning the US today is the fact that a man can get arrested in his own house just because he is non-white. Obama is going to rectify this absurdity by having a national holiday called, Drink a beer with someone who arrested you day. Mario responds: This is yet another bald faced falsehood. Mervyn is obviously referring to an incident at Harvard University recently where an unruly black professor was arrested outside his house by a white cop who was assisted by a black cop and a Hispanic cop, but, as usual, he is distorting the facts out of all recognition: Here are some credible reports of what

I would encourage Goanetters to read both the links above and the ones below and then make up their own minds. Somehow, it has never occurred to the left-leaning Canadians to allow private for-profit health care providers for those who want it. Like good socialists they prefer to drag everyone down towards the lowest common denominator. Of course the safety net for Canadians who want to live is to buy health insurance in the US and come to the US for serious treatments they cannot get in Canada.
