Charley two things about Canadian and Israeli health care.
1. Their general health care isn’t bad, in fact, it’s pretty good. That is as long as there isn’t anything seriously wrong with you and you can wait for services. Say what you will about the inequities of American fee-for-service, the quality of American medicine is the standard of the world. American don’t go to Canada to get complicated operations bur Canadians do come to America.
2. Canadians and Israelis do not live longer than Americans. The apparent difference in life expectancy is due to a, neither of the counties listed report infant deaths less than 30 days old and b, U.S. reporting includes accidental deaths and homicides, theirs don’t.
