D'accord, M. Castonguay
B. Hussein Obama has promised to institute "universal health care" if elected this November. Of course, "universal health care" is code for the socializing of America's system of health care delivery.
B. Hussein needs to listen to the words of Claude Castonguay, the father of Canada's single-payer, socialized health care system. From Powerline's blog:
Four decades later, as the chairman of a government committee reviewing Quebec health care this year, Castonguay concluded that the system is in "crisis."
"We thought we could resolve the system's problems by rationing services or injecting massive amounts of new money into it," says Castonguay. But now he prescribes a radical overhaul: "We are proposing to give a greater role to the private sector so that people can exercise freedom of choice."
