will you please foward this message to the non -believers


I am so sick of hearing those crack pots who buy the propaganda pitched by the drones leading the right. I just watched a program on my local channel debunking all the propaganda that has been fed to MAINERS about the Canadian healthcare system.
watching the local channel debunking Canadian healthcare an claiming we are getting propaganda info to keep our system ! this should be picked up and spread across the internet. I for one have looked up this and found the Canadian worker making 50,000 a year pays aprox the same as an American worker except his healthcare ins. is paid for while we still need to pay ours out of pocket. As far as the waiting it's no different than living in rural Maine. BUT ONE PAYER IS CHEAPER,THEY ARE LIVING LONGER THAN US AND THE COST IS MUCH LESS THAN OURS.
AND WHEN U KNOW WHO SAYS WHY DO CANADIANS COME OVER HERE FOR HOSPITAL PROCEDURES YOU SHOULD CHECK OUT HOW MANY AMERICANS GO TO MEXICO OR OTHER COUNTRIES FOR OPERATIONS AND CANCER TREATMENTS= IT FAR EXCEEDS THE CANADIAN 100
