In Canada, I have to pay about $6,000/yr for a healthcare system that I have no use for. It has cost me over $200,000 over my working life for a healthcare that will not be available for me in the end, because the money is gone. I would have to rob the children of their future, in the same manner that my future was taken from me for the benefit of those that are now 65 years and older.
Canada is not a good nation to try and argue for the merits of a public healthcare system, because I live here. If it’s beyond a broken leg, you get put on a waiting list and you pray for the death of those ahead of you so you can move up the list and get treatment before you end up dying on the list and allowing others to move up the list.
There is no merit to public healthcare, because it is immoral and it based on the idea that people exist as a resource source for the benefit of the liberal.
May I suggest that your problems may be specific (or more salient) to Canada?
In Spain there are relatively few such complaints.
Sylvia’s mom had colon cancer.
Sylvia’s father had prostate cancer.
I never heard an adverse word from Sylvia in over three decades about NHS service.
Post-war Twiggy generation Brit Sylvia was not happy to be declined for BC/BS coverage when “fat American [not politically correct]” got coverage.
