If someone told you that you currently pay $6,551 per person to receive completely covered full healthcare, and if you become a state your healthcare goes up to $12,555 per person and you will have to pay for your appointment, the first $5,000 before anything is covered and if the issue is bad enough you will pay the overhead. Also drugs prices are way higher, so get ready for those as well.
Would you vote for that?
those numbers are 2022 Canada/U.S. per capita costs for healthcare. Doesn’t include the private sector costs added in for the U.S.
WAIT, that doctor isn’t in your network, sorry… you went to the wrong emergency room. I know you were unconscious but have fun sorting out which surgeons, MRIs, equipment, room fees, ambulance fees, personal trainers were covered.
Ontarians and Albertans are already voting for Conservatives to dismantle their healthcare, and Canadians are about to vote in the furthest right Conservative federal government ever. As a wise man once said, people like Coldplay and voted for Hitler. You can’t trust people.
I really must not know enough about Coldplay… Lol. Straight up there with Hitler… Shit. And here I just thought they played music like Coheed and Cambria.
Then again I can’t name any of their songs either.
I bet the number of Canadians willing to give up their healthcare plans is far less than 50% for our fucked up system.
Canada becoming a state would immediately see the Republican party removed from office, and the Majory vote being far further in favor of health care reform. Aka they would vote in only senators and Congressmen who supported it. Now if they wanted to make sure the 39m people didn’t have more say than Texas, they would have to divide it into multiple states. This would create more senator positions as well, meaning more non Republican senators who block health care reform.
Not only would Canada never support it, but it is clear that Trump never knows what the fuck he is on about.
Don’t assume Canadians are well informed. The right-wing media and the Conservatives lie to Canadians too, and people believe what they’re told. In Ontario they have voted in, and voted back in, a government that is determined to dismantle public healthcare, and the voters seem not to even notice. At the federal level the Conservatives dishonestly blame the federal government for issues they know are provincial government matters, and people go along with that too and are all set to elect the Conservatives despite their having no positive proposals or intentions. Voters are easily duped.
Something tells me the last thing diehard MAGAs want is another California.
I think Canada has started catching our cancer, unfortunately.

I’m afraid that’s a trick question these days. I thought that was all pretty well handled up till this last election…
That all depends on what some hacky wannabe-comedian meathead douchebag says about it between ads on his podcast. /s
I’m not sure how that’s relevant to my comment
Our cancer would include that. So if Canadians had our cancer they would vote for that. Which I don’t think they have fallen that far.
I said it’s spreading, not that it’s already equal.
Yeah, right wing crazy seems to be the United States number one export.

True, the media has a lot more power than people give it credit for, and the majority is not owned by the working class
Canadian media is almost wholly right wing and owned by billionaires. Where it isn’t (e.g. CBC) the Conservatives are intent on shutting it down.
