While the rest of the developed world is seeking privatization and competition, many U.S. leaders persist in pinning their hopes on more mandates and more government control of our medical care.
It mentions some faults of the Canadian system and to be sure, our system has faults. However, there are also areas where public healthcare has succeeded brilliantly. It might be better to examine the successes and see if they can be adopted rather then build an argument for refusing to even discuss the matter.
The rest of the developed world may be looking at, "privatization and competition," but no developed nation with public healthcare is looking at scrapping it. What they are in search of is a better mix of the two. While the article makes it seem as if those nations are looking at an option resembling what the U.S. has the truth is they're simply looking at walking a little closer to the middle of the road...While the U.S. is steadfastly refusing to even attempt to crawl out of the ditch it's wallowing in and get on the darn road.
