    So...the hospital that gives the best care is...in Canada and participates in the single payer system there?

    Which makes it puzzling as to why he wouldn't seek treatment in the US.

    Does the US not have the best health care in the world?

    You will have to ask him. I don’t speak with him on a regular basis. He doesn’t confide in me

    Well, you were saying over and over and over and over and over that America has the best health care in the world, and that a single payer would ruin that.

    Except that it doesn't have the best in the world, and now he's going to a hospital that gets funded by the Ontario government and participates in their single payer system.

    So single payer doesn't ruin quality health care, after all.

    So one of your primary arguments against single payer is now disproved by Rand fucking Paul.

    And if one of your primary arguments is wrong, isn't it possible that they're all wrong?

    The U.S. may have the best healthcare system overall but it doesn’t mean we are necessarily the best in every speciality. It’s not hypocritical to find a private hospital outside the country where you pay for the service.

    It might be a private hospital, but they except the national healthcare plan as payment. Meaning, every day Canadian citizens can go there.

    Your logic is flawed

    It is interesting that the lefties don’t want to discuss the reason for the surgery

    You remember don’t you? A psycho leftist that violently assaulted Senator Paul

    God I wish Rand Paul was carrying and shot and killed his neighbot

    So because Canada may be the best in hernia surgery that shows/proves socialized medicine on the whole is the best?

    We have excellent hospitals close to DC, there is no good excuse for Rand Paul going outside the USA for surgery.

    So what? Rand isn't getting free medicine there. This is a PRIVATE hospital. What you brain dead snowflakes should be asking yourselves is why does Canada need PRIVATE facilities if their medical system is so great.

    What you also didn't know is that Canadians have to provide for their own vision care, their own dental care and their own medicines. That isn't paid for by their costly high tax system.
