What Does Socialized Medicine Deliver?

From the American Thinker:
The Cost of Free Government Health Care
By David Gibberman

"Proponents of government-run health care like to point out that countries with such a system spend a smaller percentage of their gross domestic product on health care than the United States. What they don't like to mention is how those savings are achieved. For example:
  • Patients Lose the Right To Decide What Treatment They'll Receive.
  • There Are Long Waits for Care.
  • Patients Are Denied the Latest Medical Technology and Medicines.
  • Breakthroughs in Life-Saving Treatments Are Discouraged.
  • The Best and Brightest Are Discouraged from Becoming Doctors."

Is Government-Run Health Care Better? No!

Does Government-Run Health Care Provide Everyone Access to Equal Care?

No! If you are poor, old, or too sick and think you have it bad—you ain't seen nothing yet!
