Government health care means long waits and "medical masters"

Ooopsie, Rush is still as incoherent and nonsensical as ever, whining about “medical masters.”

Obviously, he does not grasp the concept here.

We are going to take the power AWAY FROM corporate “medical masters” and return it to “we the people,” but any current medical decision-maker who chooses to stay with their current “medical master” is welcome to do so.

Morever, the one point that Rush KEEPS RUNNING AWAY FROM, when he (like others) cites imperfections in other systems is that, AT LEAST THEY HAVE SOMETHING that covers everyone. Even if you have to wait, you can get coverage.

And what Rush conceals, as noted by retired Cigna executive-turned-whistleblower Wendell Potter, Cigna and all other major providers do a thriving business selling supplemental policies in Canada, England, France and other industrial nations.

IF YOU DON’T WANT TO WAIT for government run health care, you can buy private service paid for by supplemental coverage and get preferential treatment, but at least others get SOMETHING instead of being left to die in the streets.

The fact that so many do not exercise this FREEDOM TO CHOOSE (and that British Health Service coverage is so popular that conservatives consistently lost until Magge Thatcher took opposition to it out of their platform and then finally won) speaks volumes.
