“Yet the cases that I had personal involvement were those that came to the US for care that was not available to them at the time in the UK and Canada.”
Thus giving you a biased sample. I have been involved in those cases, as well as cases in the reverse .
I am not saying the US system is all bad (nor did I even say it wasnt the best, I was just challenging Health to elaborate best in what way. If you define “best healthcare” as shorter wait times I grant the US has better healthcare than Canada for non-essential treatment. Again though A single payer sytem does not have to equal longer wait times, as mentioned previously. The US has a single payer system for those over 65. I am not aware of Longer wait times for them to be seen.
