“Canadian politician leaves U.S. after surgery”
February 13, 10:58 AM Conservative Examiner
Newfoundland and Labrador Premier Danny Williams was released from a U.S. hospital on Friday after having to flee his own dysfunctional government-run health care system in order to obtain a critical heart surgery. While the procedure Williams needed does exist in Canada, it is widely unavailable.
This is due to the inevitable rationing (i.e., ‘death panels’) that occurs when government takes over health care and makes things more “fair”–by destroying competition, limiting consumer choice and creating shortages of doctors. This is the system Obama wants to duplicate here.
And such blatant special treatment for politicians is adding fuel to the fires of discontent in Canada, where citizens are forced to suffer through a broken, inferior government system that only works for the most superficial health care needs…while the leftist elites who force this insanity on everyone else get to be exempted and fly here for quality free market care.
