this is from 2014 but it will never get old. It has bernie sanders in it, that's a plus. right now, i could listen to granpa talk for hours.
one particular exchange is noteworthy:
Senator: "Do you know how many people die in Canada because the waiting list is too long?"
Doctor: "No, but i know that forty thousand die in america because they have no insurance".
This is the gist of the discussion. Yes, private healthcare is preferable when you can afford it. Many don't. Universal healthcare guarantees it for everyone, and everyone is free to choose something else when and if they can afford it.
