Canada, the country some US "progressives" think has a better social care system (yet its spending is below the OECD average), started providing "free" euthanasia to poor people. The regime is getting impoverished people to kill themselves.

Do you think bureaucracy isn't a problem in the US?

Oh your doctor wants you to get a PET scan? Some bureaucrat in the insurance office said no, how about a CT scan instead? Oh that won't catch what they are looking for? Well, do it anyway and then wait three weeks and maybe we'll approve the PET scan. And just hope that those weeks aren't critical in your cancer treatment. Thanks for playing.

Unless you show up with a briefcase of cash, you're dealing with shitty bullshit bureaucracy in the US as well. We've just moved it to middlemen so they can skim some $ off the top.

Oh, I am not saying the system in the USA is perfect: it is incredibly expensive and yes, "insurance" is truly more of a scam than actual protection.

"The rich stay healthy and the sick stay poor."

No society can ever be truly prosperous and allow for individual creativity without getting rid of political representatives, because such "representation" leads to corruption and cronyism. As such, the so-called "free markets" of the USA are imaginary. There aren't any. How do you get rid of representatives?

There are two options: National Socialism / Nazism, and localized direct democracy. Anything else crushes the creative drive of the individual and leads into regression instead of improvement.
