If you think my dad's cancer case is an argument for Medicare for all, you haven't been paying attention.

My dad is Canadian. He's paid into the Canadian Medicare system for DECADES. But when he needed it the most, what did that get him?

It got him on WAITLISTS. FOR MONTHS. https://twitter.com/cryptoandrew321/status/1320907242242269189
Is the American system (which OBAMA PUT IN PLACE BY THE WAY!) perfect?

Hell no. Obviously it needs improvements, no one's saying otherwise.

But I'm sick of people pretending like Canada doesn't have any problems with its healthcare system because it obviously does.
When I shared about my dad's problems in Canada, I got shamed by socialists for "trying to jump the line" for his care.

When I brought him to the US for surgery, now socialists are saying "Well you wouldn't have all these costs if there was public healthcare!"

Fuck you people.
