People are treated all over the world where centres of excellence exist. My mother was treated at Sloane Kettering for her cancer in NY while my wife has had eye surgery at Centre for Sight outside London this week because they are acknowledged to be the best in the world at eye implants.
As we are in the UK does that imply that the US system is defunct, because my mother flew to NY for treatment doe that imply the UK system is defunct no it just shows that, if you afford it, you go where the best are. By all known metrics the US system isn't the best and neither are the Canadian or the British. They are methods used for delivery of healthcare, some buy in, some universal.

Something's a little backward here... decent people love him... leftys hate him because he deals in the one thing they can handle in the same way a vampire handles the sunlight... it is the truth. Now as far as corrupt insurance companies and medical organizations go... sure they are! However they get the job done better than any government run system. Which is why those cases the Canadian system can't handle are sent here to the US. So we are stuck with same logic that is used with the soak the rich tax schemes. It doesn't matter what actually works as long as the class envy is fed and the right people are hurt.
