When the subject of socialized medicine comes up, proponents often cite Great Britain as an example of a system that works. In a recent study, six percent of 5,000 surveyed admitted to dental self-treatment using pliers and glue. Apparently, the brits are covered, as long as they are good do-it-yourselfers.
I have to get myself psyched up just to go to get my teeth cleaned. I feel very blessed to have dentists readily available at nearly every street corner in the U.S..
Wow. The day has finally come…Robert’s first blog post. I was thinking it would be about guns or an Apple rumor. Kudos to Robert for being the first to make a political post.
With so many examples of failed attempts of socialized medicine (Canada, Cuba, Sweden, England, etc.), why do politicians continue to push for it? So they can get elected and be famous. Making a promise to (misguided, ignorant) voters that their Healthcare will be taken care of sounds like a dream come true. It’s an easy sell for voters who don’t do their homework.
