The post does state that the US topped them in wait times - so I'm not sure why you felt the need to say they have worse wait times again. Also, we've all waited plenty long in US emergency rooms as well - so I wouldn't try and slant that as a public health care issue. Also - the nice thing is you'll be able to keep that insurance you're so happy with. The millions of people who can't afford it would have a public provided option instead of the no coverage they're currently enjoying. I'm thrilled you like your insurance. Please keep it. Also - way to go on not even having the stones to leave an actual name or email address. Stay classy, random guy from Missouri. Yet the UK ranks higher than the US in safety, efficiency, and equity.

Public health care in the UK is in many many ways worse than in the US, and in no ways better. Coming from the UK, I can say that both my wife (US Citizen) and I have received horrible health 'care' including having a painful knee injury mis-diagnosis as a child (its just a sprain, he can go back to school tomorrow) which has bothered me for almost a decade and often renders my leg unusable for several hours at a time. Complete Lack of Dental care, If you aren't a child or pregnant, you will have to pay for private dental care as well as the tax you pay for public dental care. Massive wait times, my pregnant wife and I had to wait in an emergency room for over 4 hours while she was complaining of abdominal pain. That was fun. I think the wait time when I hurt my knee was around 3 hours to see a doc. Surgery wait times. You've all heard the stories, 3-6 month waits for surgery (happened to my brother and my grand-mother). There are a few other examples of the inadequate treatment we have received as well as examples from my family that I wont get into, but sufficed to say, I work and I pay for my US Insurance, and I prefer it in every way. No. You’re an idiot.
