    Tell us how large these countries are, how long people have to wait for treatments and which ones have Bernie's zero premiums, zero deductible, zero out of pocket and zero prescription costs.

    Also tell us which way those programs are trending. Are they improving and becoming less costly or...?

    Brilliant, just brilliant. Everyone knows that requirements for good health care very wildly from State to State. :D

    Not applicable. There is no private alternative to the military and there is virtually no way of arranging so that there is one. So there's no way to compare it with an alternative.

    Healthcare is the opposite. It is a service that can be perfectly regulated by free market forces which would make the best results possible for the lowest cost possible. But, since it isn't a free market, it has a lot of distortion from government intervention and regulation that increases prices(such as the one I mentioned in my last post) and makes it available preferably for those who are fortunate enough to cover the costs added by idiotic government regulation leaving out the poor, thus creating a perfect environment for leftists like you to push your bullshit agenda and force even more idiotic ideas such as the single payer system down the throats of people.

    There is no non-government alternative to medical care. The conditions essential to free market capitalism do not exist in health care. And sadly, they can not exist. It's the nature of the beast. Next time you break your leg, don't just go to the nearest ER or Doctor. Shop around first, compare prices, be a wise consumer. Maybe order a new leg on Amazon. Or a cheaper version directly from China. :D

    I am only asking one simple thing of you. Don't be stupid.

    Ask how they are rationing healthcare to the patients? Pretty soon, they will be doing the same thing in the US because there is not enough monies to sustain the subsidized healthcare which is Obamacare. They have rationing in the UK, also, in Cuba where they have first class hospitals for the Castros and top communist leaders. Everyone else has to wait a long, long time and sent to broken down hospitals with dirty mattresses, piss and fecies on the floor of the room. So much for the fairy tale Michael Moore and Barack Obama tell us about. Rich Americans can get treatment in the hospital used by the Castros since, you will be paying out of pocket.

  10. Piezo probably did not pay his subscription for Google this month.

    That alone renders him deaf, dumb, mute, and blind.
