I'm on a certain level glad. Obamacare is a child of the Heritage Foundation and Romneycare. A right wing corporate welfare system without price checks to prevent gouging. I hope it gets trashed so the only real solution, MEDICARE FOR ALL, with appropriate non for profit price controls of both services and materials, including drugs, can be put in place.

Obviously not by Trump and the GOP. But a few years of pain may just make the calls for it a reality.

Back to the accelerationist dream that once america burns to the ground a utopia with free health care will rise.

Did Medicare for All work for this poor guy in Edmonton?

Perhaps if Alberta had better taxes to fully fund it then outcomes would be better?

Do you really want to compare USA vs Canada outcomes? Deaths per 100,000 on just about every metric is better in Canada. As well as overall life expectancy. Wanna discuss 50% of all US bankruptcy are medically related?

You won't win this one.
