Here is my article warning Americans – especially Senator Bernie Sanders, and the rabidly socialist Congresswoman AOC – against trying socialized medicine, Canadian style.
If they do, they are just going to repeat Canada’s mistake.
The article was released today on the Opinion page of The Epoch Times, New York – and in other editions of this newspaper.
I think it covers all the main objections in a reasonably short space. So, if visitors to this website have ever longed for a concise, fact-based argument against socialized medicine – this is it!
Feel free to forward it to your list of contacts, or post it to other websites.

Hello Mr. Gairdner, considering you are now a new guest columnist for the Epoch Times I thought you might find the following 14 Minute video of interest (In this video he mentions the Newspaper);

This is one video of many produced by a Westerner who has lived a long time in mainland China and offers politically incorrect (i.e. natural) insights into the customs, practices, mentality and culture of the Chinese, both good and bad.
Thx Chris – this should interesting.
The story of how and why all those spiritual Asian nations swallowed the materialist Marxist dialectic, has yet to be told in full
Great article!
In your opinion what is the most significant problem with a single payer health-care system.
So Jesse – sorry. I thought I replied already. Sometimes the email system on this website gets confused more than I do!
I think the main problems with any socialized medical system are:
1) crowding out other programs due to uncontrollable demand/cost
2) rationing by the queue – long wait times
3) transforming human medicine into veterinary medicine for humans (because once this begine, day one, you have a medical master calling the shots on what can and cannot be spent on your health care.
