That “data” is the fact that European and Canadian health care is as good as ours for half the cost.

If health care is so great in Canada, why are insurance companies there offering waiting line insurance? http://www.cbc.ca/canada/british-columbia/story/2008/10/01/bc-medical-wait-list-insurance-bcaa.html

Canadian Health Care We So Envy Lies In Ruins, Its Architect Admits

The government followed his advice, leading to his modern-day moniker: “the father of Quebec medicare.” Even this title seems modest; Castonguay’s work triggered a domino effect across the country, until eventually his ideas were implemented from coast to coast.

Four decades later, as the chairman of a government committee reviewing Quebec health care this year, Castonguay concluded that the system is in “crisis.”

My Irish relative have come here for medical care because the socialized system in the British Isles is sooooo good…. /sarc

For those of you that like a more domestic example, today’s Wall Street Journal has an article about the crashing failure of TennCare:

I will keep posting these to your claims of the quality of socialized health care until you respond, lgm.

Obamacare is NOT about reforming health care. It is about expanding health coverage at the expense of tax payers and the loss of private insurance.

Likewise, if US health care is so sub-standard, then why inflict such a travesty upon those citizens who have, thus far, been fortunate enough to have eluded its grasp?

The truth is, US health care is the best in the world and always be – so long as it remains separate from government control – and is readily available when needed to all citizens.

Liberty has always won when the constitution’s message is confidently communicated through all of the white noise the liberals use to corrupt, distract and disrupt the truth.

Time for us all to focus and drive through the weak spot always open in the anti constitution left.
Americans love their Documents of origin.
They just need to be proudly projected across the country.

Reagan just flat talked people into Americanism.

There’s a new spirit, I can tell you, sweeping America, and you’re part of it. The Navy’s pride and professionalism campaign is part of it. The push for quality by American workers is part of it. That young Marine sergeant, Jimmy Lopez, and the naval aviator, Commander Don Scherer, who wouldn’t bend to their Iranian captors during the days of the hostages, were part of it. Maybe some of you don’t know that Sergeant Jimmy Lopez, before he left his place of confinement in Iran, wrote on the wall in Spanish — which evidently they could not understand, “Long live the red, white, and blue.” – Ronald Reagan, Remarks on Board the U.S.S. Constellation, August 20, 1981.

I know that old people are always supposed to give advice, so I’ll prove I’m old and give you some… Today with all the flood of misinformation that comes your way, be careful. Even the figures I’ve given you here, don’t take my word for it. Check it out. Look them up. They are always in public record. But don’t become a sucker generation; don’t just take someone’s viewpoint on what things are. – Governor Ronald Reagan, to Students, May 5, 1973.

It is time for us to realize that we are too great a nation to limit ourselves to small dreams. We’re not, as some would have us believe, doomed to an inevitable decline. I Do not believe in a fate that will fall on us no matter what we do. I do believe in a fate that will fall on us if we do nothing. – Ronald Reagan, 1st inaugural address, January 20, 1981.

If we look to the answer as to why, for so many years, we achieved so much, prospered as no other people on Earth, it was because here, in this land, we unleashed the energy and individual genius of man to a greater extent than has ever been done before. Freedom and the dignity of the individual have been more available and assured here than in any other place on Earth. The price for this freedom at times has been high, but we have never been unwilling to pay that price. – Ronald Reagan, First Inaugural Address, January 20, 1981.

Faith in God, patriotism, freedom, the love of freedom, family, work, neighborhood — the heart and soul of America’s past and the promise of her future. If we stand together and live up to these principles, we will not fail. – Ronald Reagan, Address Before a Joint Session of the Alabama State Legislature in Montgomery, March 15, 1982.

You betcha!

Typical libtard, keep repeating a lie over and over thinking you will make it true for all who listen. pssssssst, nobody is listening.

WASHINGTON (AP) – Frustrated liberals have a question for President Barack Obama and Democratic lawmakers: Isn’t it time the other guys gave a little ground on health care? What’s the point of a bipartisan bill, they ask, if we’re making all the concessions?

From AP. If I recall it is the liberals that are throwing this stuff down our throats, without reading it, and with no delays. Why do the American people have to make concessions regarding government control and loss of freedoms and liberty? It just shows how elitist they’ve become, in their fantasy world of total power. Doesn’t anyone there give a darn about patients, or are they just a convenient tool for their designs on socialism?
