1. But, but, you have to get on a waiting list for health care in Canada.

Canadians always die from waiting to have their health care needs addressed.

Right?

I have visited some Canadian relatives who have children or other close relatives living in the U.S. who have experienced both nations' health care systems. They all say the U.S. system is far more expensive, is far more bureaucratic and the quality of service is inferior to Canada's.

I try to relay that information to my RW relatives and they're all in disbelief because it flies in the face of what they've heard on Limbaugh, Faux Snooze or the other RW propaganda they hear every day.

Medicare for all!
