John Stossel, co-anchor of ABC’s 20/20 compares ObamaCare to Canada’s free health care system where patients wait months to be seen for treatment.
He points out that when American actress Natasha Richardson fell and hit her head on a ski slope outside Montreal earlier this year, the closest hospital with the scanning equipment needed to diagnose her brain injury was hundreds of miles away.
Sadly, there weren’t any helicopters to fly her to a hospital because under Canada’s free health system, there isn’t enough money to buy these lifesaving, big ticket items.
So, like the Canadians who don’t get access to timely medical attention – she died.
The same will happen to Americans if ObamaCare passes — unless you’re wealthy enough to be seen by a doctor right away.
Stossel exposes the truth behind Barack Obama’s claims that his health care system will save money over the next 10 years. That is impossible. There simply aren’t enough doctors, hospitals or funding to cover all 300 million Americans AND the 19 million illegal aliens already in this country that Obama wants to give amnesty to.
