    Unlike the current situation, where anyone who wants to practice medicine can just set up shop? Hello?

    As is your paranoid hyperbole.

    And they're also free to order whatever tests they wish and use their own common sense.

    Don't blame me; blame the history of other nations that have gone down this road.

    Yes, they've all come to a bad end. Tragic, that.

    They have if you need agressive and timely health care.

    Re: Government starting to tell women they don't need breast exams if they're under 5

    Wasn't it Science/Research that recommended this now? For women with low risk of getting breast cancer, the research said it is more beneficial for them to start the mammograms at 50.

    How is this blamed on the government/Obama?

    I think that America has the best healthcare in the world because our medical technology and doctors are unmatched. If certain Canadians have the money, they can come here to get stuff done. I'd say that FAR more come to America because of our quality rather than wait times -- the draw back of course is cost. If we could lower the cost, then that would make everyone happy.

    So Canadians like their health care better. And even though there are definitely some cases where Canadians come to America because of the long wait, I think it is greatly exaggerated. In my opinion, the problem with Canadian waiting times is this...

    I think the bolded one is the problem. I can see my physician within a week.

    This is my opinion on the Canada/American health care issue. I think it is also dumb that the right attacks Canadian and British health care so much. Good for them that they have shot back at the right, defending themselves.

    I don't speak Canadian, so I'm not sure if I'm interpreting it right, but I would translate "special physician" to "specialist", rather than "my physician".

    Oh didn't realize that. I skimmed over it and thought it said physician. Well, that is a bit different, isn't it?

    I do speak Canadian though. And British, American, Australian, Kiwi, etc...

    Wow, this is something Hitler would do.

    Not getting these exams done yearly is dangerous.

    I noticed that all of the responses to the "read up on 1930's Germany" sometime didn't have anything to say about the content. :)

    I didn't say Obama was Hitler. I didn't say that we were Nazis. I didn't say anything except to tell you to read history, and I didn't even tell you which history to read.

    Amazing the amount of disinformation being believed and spewed (by both sides)

    Hmm, and you figured that everyone would take a break from arguing about mammograms to read something, anything, about 1930s Germany, because you suggested it?

    Read up on Joan Kroc's childhood friends.
    I'm not gonna tell you why. Just do it.

    Re: Government starting to tell women they don't need breast exams if they're under 5

    What Wikipedia failed to mention was that only women of a certain genetic background were encouraged to get breast exams in Nazi Germany. But you keep on missing the point; we know it's intentional because those on the Left have little interest in discussing the real issue--personal freedom.
