Reply #55: The good Senator is a lying sack of shit, and obviously owes his soul to "for profit" healthcare.

Just about EVERY negative we have heard about the Canadian system or the French system or the British system is either a lie or so blown out of proportion that it is close to a lie. And there is only one reason: for-profit healthcare spends a literal fortune to lobby and control our elected Senators and Representatives in Congress. For-profit--"managed"--healthcare was created specifically to introduce a profit-making cutout between the patient and his or her health professional. That is the only purpose they serve. To make a profit for some already rich parasite. People die daily in this country simply because they don't have the money to grant them access to healthcare. And the for-profit healthcare industry will use EVERY DIRTY TRICK in the book to insure their stream of dirty money continues.
