We got the best health care, but it's HORRIBLY expensive.
but the competition makes things better, more progression faster and less drag on the gov, i dont relay like the socializd care idea, im not saiyng its horribly wrong but we are based on compitition and it isnt the govs job to make sure we take care of ourselve
can you afford spinal surgery? health and education should be granted for everyone. everything else should be as you say. but you need to equal the field first, otherwise is just not fair.
yes exactly dude... health care is not free like in our country... in France we are over assisted, in the US if you don't have enough money, you don't get the best stuff... it sucks some how...
That's it mon gars... vive le système francais.
J ai lu un article où elle disait en avoir eu pour plus de 250 000 euros de frais d'hopital... t'imagines la cata !!! Par chance, ses sponsors l'ont gardée et elle a pu subvenir a une partie de ses besoins en soin, mais pour info il existe un site de soutien avec nvente de teeshirt et autre...

He was just saying that the cost for surgerey she had was arrond 250000 dollars at the hospital and she will need more money to be healed. and that the sponsors helped her to pay a part of it and they still accepting donations to help her, just as explained in the article.
Sad system and sad news though.

there's pros and cons to both systems... here in canada, i've seen people wait months, almost even a year for urgently needed surgery... people can die just waiting... i haven't had anything seriously wrong with myself yet except a few broken bones... on that note, i'd gladly wait 4 or 5 hours in emerg rather than paying assloads of cash
Well, Here in france, we don't wait that much and it's almost free even for heavy surgery, glasses, Scans, IRM etc....
A system that heal only the people who can afford it is wrong.
Being Ill or injured is unfair enough.
But that's not the point. I hope she'll be fine soon

Much respect for the Collective and the North Van retailers for helping out Tara. It's really amazing when a community comes together to help out an individual's road to recovery!
Here in Canada we have a pretty awesome system. WAY WAY better than in the states. BUT that being said France has probably the best I have ever seen. The big difference, assuming I am remembering this correctly, is that you guys over in France pay way more in taxes do you not? But personally I would much rather see my tax money going to better health care to take care of me and fellow citizens than to some fat old banker working for the prime minister...
...or to the newest 18 year old social servicer recipient who is just to lazy and ignorant to find a job.
Well taxes are arround 30% of your global income and it can goes up to 60% if you make a lot of cash.
The VAT is important as weel :19 % on most of the products and 5% on services.
Yes it's quite a lot and I assume that some of the social employees are kind of lazy but I think the system is pretty fair.

quentos for pres. if nothing else you can't rape me politically. thats why i don't vote because eventually they will all inevitably have their way with me and there is nothing that i can do.

That would mean you have to pay to be healed in the US ?
