If what you are saying is correct then does Canada, France, or England have more entrepreneurship than the US?

What is 12x1500? You're saying that taxes will increase by that much, even for people making 45k a year? |

But like you said, it depends on how you define and measure system quality. And, with the US having such a large population, it may be difficult to construct a fair comparison regardless. |

So you are saying we pay LESS? Or are you saying that Canada's costs would HALVE if they went to the US system? |

Just because Canada's per capita expenditure is allegedly less than the US, I fail to see the logical connection that would indicate our per capita expenditures would significantly decrease under a new system. |

Right now the Government pays a significant portion of health care costs through Medicare and Medicaid, but these have not positively affected the costs of medicines. Lifestyle issues affect emergent care more than access IMHO.
