    The United States, its Congress (mainly led by Republicans) refuse to adopt a healthcare system based upon social welfare system even though its already built into certain aspects of the economy with a lot of success.

    For example…military hospitals and the Veterans Administration system. A soldier and their family or former soldier does not pay for any medical/dental care/treatments/tests/precriptions or outpatient care.

    Also, we have a free mail delivery system for any prescriptions.

    Yet, if you fact check the above…the Republicans say its a Democratic LIE because their cuts in discretionary spending to reduce the federal debt does not mention medical care for soldiers & veterans.

    Reality, the Republicans do not mention which specific programs will get big cuts but they’re signalling the only way to reduce our federal debt is to dramatically cut (or end) programs like the VA, social security and medicaid.

    Ironically, most Americans want a social healthcare system and oppose pharmaceutical high prices (e.g. cost of insulin) and control of the healthcare system because it would greatly impact their quality of life / financial well-being in a positive way.

    Simply, if the Republicans get their cuts in discretionary spending…say goodbye to most of medicaid, social security and the VA.

    30% more Americans will become poorer as in below the poverty line because these types of cuts will occur when there’s no laws in place to cap & lower the cost of healthcare & medical drugs.

    The Inflation Reduction Act does help reduce the medical costs for Americans that recently have economic difficulties…it is a bipartisan law.

    Obamacare (Affordable Care Act) tries to help more Americans but its opposed by 1/2 of America because they incorrectly believe it is socialized medicine…it us not socialized medicine even though this 1/2 of America benefits greatly from Obamacare.

    Simply, until America gets rid of it negative views about “social healthcare” that countries like Canada enjoys greatly…

    Pharmaceutical industry and their powerful lobby groups in Congress will continue controlling the healthcare system in America…

    Although some will argue that Pharmaceutical industries control social healthcare programs too without the outrageous high costs. :p

    Lets put it this way considering I have access to hospitals/clinics in France, Canada, and the United States…I rarely see drug/medical treatment advertisements in medical offices in France or Canada…

    In contrast, its common place to see it in medical offices in the United States.

    Drug advertisements on TV in the above mentioned three countries is about the same.



    Once again, the U.S. healthcare system sucks and the exception is the VA healthcare system.

    Dr Paul Thomas shoveled a bunch of lies about vaccines -- lies so absurd that they are easy to demonstrate as being complete fabrications. It is quite proper that he lost his license to practice medicine. This idiot should be nowhere near patients -- as outlined by the medical board, Paul Thomas is a threat to his patients and society.

    He can go back to college and get a M.D. in naturopathic medicine if the university is willing to ignore the fact that he was stripped of his license for unethical behaviour in traditional medicine.
