well I lasted only 45 minutes of watching the Democrat debate this evening. I have come to the conclusion that the biggest liar of the candidates is Bernie Sanders followed closely by Elizabeth Warrnen.
The very first topic was health care and good old Bernie stated that Medicare for all would not tax the middle class and would be better then most private insurance. Also alluded that the health care you will receive from the medical field will be top notch. He then referred to Canada and their health care system if you doubted his statements.
Well Bernie, my wife and I have been to Canada on vacation. while there we talked to about 12 different persons on what they thought about their health care system. The persons we talked too ranged in age from 22 to 45 years old and different occupations and wage scale.
Everyone of them complained about the high taxes they have to pay for their health care. Number 2 complaint was that they had faced long delays on getting non life threating procedures done due to the long line ahead of them.
Even when the head guy for Canada's health care system needed certain procedures done along with MRI's being taken, he came to the U.S. to have it done.
Our local hospital had a shortage of R.N.s and they went to Canada and recruited 25 Canadian nurses. One nurse told me that the pay scale is better here where they can make a decent wage for the years they invested to become a R.N.
Due to the low pay in Canada, many are not going into the medical field like they did years ago and it has created a shortage of nurses and doctors and added to the long wait to get medical aid.
No Bernie you can stick your outright lies where the sun does not shine and better find a better example for the health care system then Canada that he wants to go too. Even some of the other Democrat candidates called him out on the health care for all and old Bernie got a little upset with them.
