Okay, so if you need something serious done, you have to wait some time. Better to wait than pay hundreds of thousands into muh freedom hospitals. Kill yourself you fat fuck

Reducing the wait time by increasing the costs is not an ideal solution.

Are you seriously trying to use the 'get shot' meme on me? Why do americans always try to use their personal memes on others?

First cuckoldry, and now this. Statistically you'll be shot about a hundred times before I ever get shot.

That's because we don't have anything near NHS.

But why havent you adapted the dutch system yet? What's wrong about making isurance firms talk to hospitals about making an as low as possible price in exchange for an as big as possible medical result.

I don't know much about the Dutch system.

pls don't tell the mods

Yes, foreign capitalism, but National Socialism, thats what made the Netherlands big.

Its also said we invented the capitalist system most western countries have during 17-18th century with VOC.

Obama care was originally supposed to be a carbon copy of the Dutch system before it got gutted. Now it's 50% private system, 50% Dutch system, which is dumb as shit and will have to be fixed in the near future.
>>
>>59923688
Well, I dont think its the dutch system because pur system wouldn't work if all firms didnt join in.
>>
>>59923729
Obamacare started as a 4000 page document and left Congress as a 20,000 page law
That's a lot of room to fuck up a competent system
>>
>>59923782
But do americans actually know thre is something between NHS and Individual care?
>>
>>59923825
Most don't know shit about how healthcare works in the slightest no.
>>
>>59923825
Among average Americans or among those who are interested in how healthcare systems work?

Most people just don't want their taxes to be raised to pay for something they know doesn't work(the NHS)
>>
>>59923940
Our system isnt really cheap either though.
70 milliard (billion) euros per year for 17million people.

But its cheaper than paying individually, because its calculated by our National Bureau of Calculations that the American system would cost is 1.7 times more.
>>
>>59922205

If we killed all the Canadians the Healthcare costs would be reduced to zero in Canada
>>
>>59924045
>the American system would cost is 1.7 times more.
That's mostly because of Tort law in the US. Doctors have to pay an outrageous amount for Malpractice insurance so they have to charge a hell of a lot more
>>
>>59924129
Yes but because our insurance firms are paid with via tax, so everyone even the rich have to participate, insurance firms owners can earn more than our prime-minister can.
>>
>>59921627
>have to
ok

>implying you'll actually pony up if we ask you to pay for yourselves

>>59924227
Yeah, there are definitely problems with our system. I just want to be able to try different systems in different states so we can determine what works best here before we implement anything on a national level considering how massively bloated the medical bureaucracy in the US is
