This healthcare “bread line” is where people die. It happens regularly that by the time a patient gets to see an expert, his condition has progressed beyond remedy. It also happens frequently that referrals get lost. Bureaucracies create listless employees, who don’t care, who refuse to go the extra mile, and who are never responsible for failures.I just came across this, and it’s quite relevant to one of the discussions on my blog today about the programs in Scandinavia. Feel free to read if you are interested in an opinion from an actual Swede who has experienced both the system there and here in the U.S.
Let me sum-up this article for you with a quote from it:
“It is impossible to put a number on it”
Actually you can. Right here. Where we see once again, all across the board, the US compares poorly in all areas vs. Sweden and other socialized health care plans. Especially by cost.
Once again, what you have here is a screed full of anecdotal evidence by someone wronged by the “system” They trot this shit out every time we try to reform our health care system, and it’s really fucking pathetic how some people fall for it.
You want to talk about Obamacare, that’s a fucking monster of it’s own. which sucks balls. It’s in no way single-payer or socialized health care.
