The United States has the most perfect health-care system in the whole wide world

Unless you don't have any money, then the hospital will just kill you. And, you know, I didn't hear anything about the Tirhas Habtegiris emergency care act, nor did I hear anything about Maximum Leader Genius flying to her bedside to sign the ruling to override the Texas "fuck you! you're poor!" medical neglect act.

But it's good that the United States doesn't have any nasty socialized medicine, because then "those people" would end up getting the same sort of healthcare that the upper classes get, and that's just not right.

Y'know it’s funny how opponents of socialized medicine always claim “you have to get on a waiting list” to get healthcare in Canada, but they never deal with the fact that there isn’t even a list you can get on here. I’d rather be waiting for my turn on a list than be just waiting to die, which is what sick Americans without insurance must do.
