    Well....

    You are entitled to your opinion- no matter how it is formed.

    If you're going after Sarasota Slim- that's up you.

    I'm not sure why you are defending a system you have never directly encountered- especially since you defend it with such vigor.



    And the "dude" and "respect" shit....
     Not with me- I don't appreciate that. 
    Save that for the juveniles that think it's "cool".

    A couple of weeks ago i told disco that the republicans tried adding an amendment to the bill making all the politicians have to take the same public option plan that they are trying to force on the American people.  He called me a liar and said i was making things up.  So i posted various links about this story and he said they were all bullshit.  So today i posted the actual govt page of the Senator who tried getting the amendment passed and hes now saying that the govt page is all bullshit and its lies posted there.  He just wont admit that he was wrong and i was right.  Tough for him to accept that.

    The guy is completely nuts.  It has to be all the pot

    Disco,

    You really are a moron.  First off, I live in Quebec.  You know, the province with the highest taxes, biggest government, most left wing province.  Secondly, we've had private clinics in Quebec since before the Harper government so stop blaming everything on Harper/Bush.  The reason we have private healthcare offered in this province is because the government has bankrupted the medicare system, and doesn't have enough money to pay for things.  They are talking about user fees to see doctors as another way to raise money.

    Also, if each province controls their own healthcare (which is mostly true with a few exceptions), how does Harper have anything to do with this.

    So genius, if our healthcare is so good, why do people fly to the US for treatments?  Why do I have friends with no GP?  Why do I have friends that can't get a pediatrician for their children?  Why is there such clamor to allow more private health facilities?

    Oh and I forgot...we are so short on nurses that the government was forcing hospital nurses to work overtime....12 hour shifts per day!!!  You think that's going to lead to great healthcare when you have tired angry nurses on their 11th straight hour of work.

    What about the fact that several hospitals in outlying areas have to close their ER for weeks during the summer because they have no staff??

    Is this your idea of a great healthcare system??

    You really are a moron.  First off, I live in Quebec.  You know, the province with the highest taxes, biggest government, most left wing province.  Secondly, we've had private clinics in Quebec since before the Harper government so stop blaming everything on Harper/Bush.  The reason we have private healthcare offered in this province is because the government has bankrupted the medicare system, and doesn't have enough money to pay for things.  They are talking about user fees to see doctors as another way to raise money.

    Also, if each province controls their own healthcare (which is mostly true with a few exceptions), how does Harper have anything to do with this.

    So genius, if our healthcare is so good, why do people fly to the US for treatments?  Why do I have friends with no GP?  Why do I have friends that can't get a pediatrician for their children?  Why is there such clamor to allow more private health facilities?

    Oh and I forgot...we are so short on nurses that the government was forcing hospital nurses to work overtime....12 hour shifts per day!!!  You think that's going to lead to great healthcare when you have tired angry nurses on their 11th straight hour of work.

    What about the fact that several hospitals in outlying areas have to close their ER for weeks during the summer because they have no staff??

    Is this your idea of a great healthcare system??

    After reading all your posts over the last year, i finally realize what kind of person you truly are.  Your nothing but a selfish person who hates other people for getting things you dont have.  Well heres a thought, its not other peoples fault because you arent able to land a good paying job that provides medical insurance.  Sorry that your stuck at mikey d's flipping burger.  But am 100 percent sure if you did work at a job that provided health insurance you wouldnt be making the posts you make.  Guys like you are all the same, hate others for what you dont have.

    Heres a little knowledge for you, employers offer medical insurance other things to employees so that they can get good quality people for their jobs.  Also alot of places people trade wages for insurance, so its not some free handout like you keep saying.  The people that are going to get free healthcare, those are handouts.  I spent 25 years helping people on and off the job, so please dont insult me by saying i didnt earn it.

    Heres a thought if the fire service is such a sweet best paying occupation, why dont you get off your ass and go take the test and get on the job.  Then you wont be here bashing others for getting a better job then you.

     

    lastly the companies that offer stock options to its employees should have to always have the money on hand{and not be able to touch it} to pay its employees, even if the company goes under.





    if nothing else cdnumbers, you are at least entertaining.  clueless as any, but always good for a laugh,,,,,,or maybe i'm the confused, i always figured you (and all of covers posters by default) to be a male,,,,are you a woman?

    Thank you, you are from Quebec, one of the provinces with the most problems. And you sound bitter about almost everything.

    However I will continue to defend the system that we spend way less on, but that is ranked higher, that these goons like to clown on.

    But don't you use the problems of Quebec to throw our whole country under the bus.

    And I'd rather have the cracked system in Quebec than the broken system in the US.

    And yes, a lot of those problems do not relate from Province to Province, but some do.

    Are you asking me how I would improve our healthcare? Because I agree it's not perfect, but it's enormously better than the private sphere can offer.

    You really must be the moron if you look at the system the States has and say: 'yea that works, lets privatize everything up here too'

    Anybody have any info on the Reps offering a bill that would make it illegal, for Obama to raise taxes on anybody making under 200k a year.   I believe the Dems killed it, if ive heard it right. 
     
    If this is/was the case,  what does that say about the fearless leader himself.

    and dsn- You're mad at me for not pretending to be an expert?
     
    I stand by that and as it turns out, and it's painfully obvious, that my limited knowledge is still far more valuable than their zero knowledge.
     
    But that doesn't stop them from making these ridiculous claims about Canadian healthcare, so of course I'm gonna step in.

    BE EASY its crystal clear now you have got no real life experiences thats why your so clueless.  You dont want nurses working 12 hour shifts genius.  Would you want that nurse to be responsible for giving the proper meds to your mother or father if they were in the hospital.  You need to wake up to reality and stop with your pie in the sky stupid ideas of how the world should work.

    Sorry but its not going to work the way you want it to.  LIKE I SAID EARLIER GET UP OFF YOUR LAZY ASS AND GO GET ONE OF THOSE GREAT PAYING JOBS THAT YOU ARE ALWAYS SO JEALOUS OF OTHER PEOPLE HAVING.

     

    p.s. did you go yell at ypur parents yet for ruining your generation?  I highly doubt.

    You know what your generation is called?  tyhe spoiled brat generation, you want everything but to damn lazy to go out and get it.

    Disco, lay off the pot really its effecting every post you make.  The reason you guys spend less on healthcare is because your govt isnt treating anything and people cant get doctors.  Lets see if your not getting any services then of course your healthcare is going to be cheaper.  THAT DOESNT TAKE A GENIUS TO FIGURE OUT.

    You by your own words know nothing about your own healthcare system yet you have the nerve to bash a guy like JG who most certainly sounds like he knows exactly what is going on with the healthcare system up their in Canada.  JG says the healthcare system up there is a complete failure, yet you are here defending it so much when by your own words you havent had to deal with the system yet

    What JG describes is the exact same things that all those t.v. stations showed on the canadian medical system specials.  People having to win a doctor in a lotto  You call that a great system.

    Your healthcare system is a pimple compared to the great system we have here, even if it more expensive then yours.  Its nice to know you can get treated for any disease right away and dont have to wait a year or 2 just to see a doctor about your problem.

    Stick to what you know best, smoking your pot.  Your parents must be proud they raised a stoner.

    And yes, a lot of those problems do not relate from Province to Province, but some do.

    Are you asking me how I would improve our healthcare? Because I agree it's not perfect, but it's enormously better than the private sphere can offer.

    You really must be the moron if you look at the system the States has and say: 'yea that works, lets privatize everything up here too'

     

    Disco, lay off the pot really its effecting every post you make.  The reason you guys spend less on healthcare is because your govt isnt treating anything and people cant get doctors.  Lets see if your not getting any services then of course your healthcare is going to be cheaper.  THAT DOESNT TAKE A GENIUS TO FIGURE OUT.

    You by your own words know nothing about your own healthcare system yet you have the nerve to bash a guy like JG who most certainly sounds like he knows exactly what is going on with the healthcare system up their in Canada.  JG says the healthcare system up there is a complete failure, yet you are here defending it so much when by your own words you havent had to deal with the system yet

    What JG describes is the exact same things that all those t.v. stations showed on the canadian medical system specials.  People having to win a doctor in a lotto  You call that a great system.

    Your healthcare system is a pimple compared to the great system we have here, even if it more expensive then yours.  Its nice to know you can get treated for any disease right away and dont have to wait a year or 2 just to see a doctor about your problem.

    Stick to what you know best, smoking your pot.  Your parents must be proud they raised a stoner.

    First off, I'm not bitter at all.  Secondly, if you really think Quebec is the only province with healthcare problems you are either naive or stupid.  As a matter of fact, Quebec has the shortage waiting times for major surgeries than any other problems.  We rank near the bottom of most other categories, but we also spend less per capita.  Either way the system sucks all over Canada.  Wait until you actually experience life.  When you need to have a surgery performed.  When/if you have kids and need a pediatrician.  Wait, when you have to take them to the emergency in the middle of the night and you have to wait for ever. 

    I have kids.  I've taken them to the doctor here many times.  I've also had the misfortune of having my kids get sick on vacation in the US where I had to take them to the doctor.  It's amazing how much more advanced their clinics are to ours in terms of technology.  The hospitals there are also fantastic, and again, way more advanced than ours.

    I'm not saying the U.S. system is perfect either.  It's unfortunate that many people get screwed.  But there are better ways to go about reforming a system.

    excellent post JG    You sound like somebody that knows alot about the canadian healthcare system and alot of that comes from first hand knowledge.  Meanwhile disco who by his own words says he never used the system has the nerve to sit here and keep telling us how great the system is while calling guys like you basically liars.

    Your right our system over here needs fixing, but at least you can get treatments right away on any type of problem you have.  On top of that our hospitals have the most advanced technologies in the world.

    Disco doesnt need to use the canadian healthcare system for anything because hes got his own medical cure "pot"

    Well its obvious you missed my point, maybe you have already started hanging out with disco.

    Let me explain it so even a person like you can understand.

    You sit here complaining about how the baby boomers have ruined your life, so your parents being baby boomers thmselves basically also helped to ruin your life.  Thats why i said you should yell at them, even thou all that money they made in their lives raised you and gave you stuff that you wanted in life.

    Point being if your going to cry about the baby boomers ruining your future, then your own parents did it as well.  Shame on your parents for going out and getting good paying jobs to take of the family.  They should have being thinking about how that was going to ruin little BE EASY'S future

     

    Yup am brain washed and am just a bigtime materialistic type

    So BE EASY, tell all of us, you dont own a car, a t.v., a stove, fridge or any of the other modern materialistic things

    guys like you cry about this stuff because you dont have a pot to piss in or a window to throw it out.

    Guys like you want to go back to living in the stone ages.

    Lastly i have seen your type of person all my life and thats the type of person who doesnt want to see other people successful because you cant be successful yourself.

    This is a good post and thank you for bringing your experience and rationality to the debate. I can also speak of problems in Ontario and Alberta along similar lines, although nobody I know in Ontario has experienced problems getting doctors or waiting for surgery. (without going into any personal detail) every single person I know personally that has needed surgury (maybe 10) have got it right away no problem. Every person I know has a family doctor for them and their kids. Although I haven't gone in years, I have a doctor to - I would just need to make an appointment.

    As I said, I hear Quebec is amoung the Provinces facing serious problems, but I'd still don't think it's fair to highlight some of the worst case examples to discredit Canadian health care overall.

    I think we should continue this discussion in another thread as this one has gotten way out of control.
