I'm not at all convinced of that. The healthcare systems in much of
Europe seem to be miles better than Canada from what I've read & heard.
And the Canadians that I've spoken to, never complained about the
quality of healthcare that they're getting either. I'd argue that most
people never need an MRI or CT scan in their lives, so throwing out that
story about how wealthy canadians are the only ones who can get one
seems like a corner case used just to make a point.
Yes, but how high a tax do they pay for it? In Germany a few years ago they
were paying 50% of their income in taxes.
I'd gladly do that instead of the 56+% that I'm currently paying every
year that doesn't include health insurance or a retirement safety net.
