Both of our children were born in a socialized medical system hospital and received socialized pre-natal and ante-natal services. The care was world-class, couldn’t be better.

The System is what you allow it to be. If you let the Health Czar get away with it and give you crappy service, he will give you a system like in this satire.

If instead you tie up the Health Czar and put his goolies into a C-Clamp and tighten it until he squeals and howls, and if you refuse to loosen off until he delivers X, Y, and Z outcomes for the medical system, you’ll get something decent like what we have in New Zealand.

Here in NZ healthcare is an issue that can overthrow a government or decide an election. It is taken that seriously.

So if your President does persist in implementing social medicine, make sure “You The People” take control of it and make the Health Czar live in fear of C-Clamps.

Excellent advice from DownUnder.

New Zealand is just a tad different from the US. You don’t have hordes of illegal immigrants swarming over your borders, and it’s even difficult to immigrate to New Zealand legally. It will NOT work in the US, just as it’s not working in the UK or Canada. Canada keeps sending women over the border to US hospitals to give birth for lack of space in their own obstetric units. What happens when our system becomes the same socialist crap as Canada’s? Well, I guess then the story in this satire piece will look too good to be true to a lot of Canadian women.

What if the NZ government decided to shift health care from socialized to citizen-paid?

Right, you have the only excellent socialized health care in the history of the world.
