Rush Limbaugh naturally wants to claim that life expectancy and cost are irrelevant factors in evaluating health care. Of course he wants to dismiss these important standards! Because the system he supports has failed so miserably at both.
And newsflash for Mr. Barnes:
When you allow EVERYONE in the line, there are more people and, yes, that line can move slower.
The solution of heartless (and mindless) conservatives is: just push as many as you have to out of the line.
They think health care should be based on income or employment!
And of course, Limbaugh won’t tell you the rest of the story on Healthcare in Britain.
They provide a safety net so everyone can have coverage.
Sometimes you wait your turn for stuff.
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, you can buy private service paid for by supplemental coverage.
The fact that so few do (and that British Health Service coverage is so popular that conservatives consistently lost until Maggie Thatcher took opposition to it out of their platform and then finally won) speaks volumes.
