the american myth

Dear Americans, you have been lied to. I have seen congress and politicians argue of the severity of the Canadian health care. America claims that Canadians have to wait 6-9 months to get free health care, well in actuality the max they have to wait is 20 min. I was recently watching a documentary about health care in other countries and this is what I have found out. London has a magnificent system. Healthcare is free and not only that but they have doctors you can call and they will come to your house and treat you. A man who came to America from France got diagnosed with a tumor in his head, couldn’t afford it, went back to France, got all his expenses for treatment for free plus got laid off from work for six months with a 100% pay. To have babies in Great Britain. Europe and Canada is absolutely free, well as to America having a baby will run you 25,000. Medication in Cuba is only 5cents while we Americans will spend 20,000 a year on medication. I then quote the man by saying how American steals a lot of things from other country. If we see a tradition we like, we take it, food, we take it, wine, and we take it, so why not take their belief in free healthcare and apply it. It is said that those countries will live 3 more years then the average American. I strongly recommend anyone interested to watch this documentary
