1. Bed shortages in Britain force 4000 moms to give birth in elevators, offices, hallways and hospital toilets
5. That the Brits can't bring about such bare-boned basics as birthing beds for those big with babies...

"(Canadians) have to understand that the system that we have right now - if it keeps on going without change - is not sustainable," said Doig
Oh golly Prof, there you go again confusing the Socialists with those pesky facts again. :rofl
He claims he's proved the Canadian system is nearing for bankruptcy when he's offered no evidence to support this assertion. He posted an article about the British NHS and used it to make incorrect assertions about the quality of service offered to expectant mothers. I'd actually be interested in finally seeing some facts, to be quite frank.
Anima, facts are very easy to come by; however, one has to have an open mind to seek them out.
Here is an indisputable fact; whenever Government gets involved with things, they distort markets and typically make things worse. They compound this with the never ending complaint that if they could just get MORE revenue, they could fix things.
If private industry ran like Government did, they would all be bankrupt.
Remember this, when a private company screws up, they either go out of business, or get bought up by more efficient enterprises. With Government, there is no competition, there is no incentive to innovate or improve and they will never stop needing ever greater funds to keep their programs going regardless of the lack of any credible success with them.
That isn't "partisan", it isn't hyperbole; it is just a FACT.
Now we can pretend that somewhere out there, there is this "perfect" entity and that if we just got the right intellects into power to run things, everything would work out perfectly. But alas, you and I have to live in the REAL world and face these REALITIES; when it comes to your well-being, your health and your prosperity, YOU are the best at deciding how to get there and the system that permits you to seek the education, the choices and levels of prosperity you seek, although less than perfect, is the best way to obtain them.
I cannot fathom anyone who is educated wanting to become a dependent ward of the state; yet that is part of what we are debating today and that politicians are arguing and trying to scare people into voting for.
Please stop posting in this manner, it is very hard to understand.too abstruse, too theoretical
politics is FEET on the GROUND
president of cma ADMITS, CONCEDES---the system is "IMPLODING"
the numbers are "NOT SUSTAINABLE"
what's "not sustainable" mean to you?
not in some TEXT BOOK?
but on the front pages of any newspaper?

Yeah, that's the opinion of one doctor, speaking with the sort of hyperbolic language those in the service of the public shoud know better than to use. It says nothing about financial issues, nor does it claim nationalised healthcare is causing the current problems in the Canadian system. I'm afraid I don't see what you're getting at here.
We live longer than you do, on average.

Doig, who has had a full-time family practice in Saskatoon for 30 years, acknowledges that when physicians have talked about changing the health-care system in the past, they've been accused of wanting an American-style structure. She insists that's not the case.
"It's not about choosing between an American system or a Canadian system," said Doig. "The whole thing is about looking at what other people do."
His thoughts on the issue are already clear. Ouellet has been saying since his return that "a health-care revolution has passed us by," that it's possible to make wait lists disappear while maintaining universal coverage and "that competition should be welcomed, not feared."
In other words, Ouellet believes there could be a role for private health-care delivery within the public system.
He has also said the Canadian system could be restructured to focus on patients if hospitals and other health-care institutions received funding based on the patients they treat, instead of an annual, lump-sum budget. This "activity-based funding" would be an incentive to provide more efficient care, he has said.
...the framework in which she was illustrating Canada's health problems...
LOLOL!
i know
things, according to the dear doc, are "not sustainable"

you didn't forget about those poor 6000, did you?
where's your compassion?
how could you be so thoughtless?
You tried using Doig's comments to pimp your warped crusade against a public option.
You took her out of context.
You considerably misrepresented her views.
You failed to comprehend her words in the appropriate context.
Quoting Doig to further the 'anti-public option' cause is akin to a struggling undergraduate student utilizing Ayn Rand for the promotion of statism, and the eradication of a free market.
The truth is, you would have never used Doig as a source had you done but five minutes research into her record.
Don't worry though prof. I'm sure a dozen more "LOL's" and you'll have wormed your way out of another one.
