ORIGINAL: Sanity At least somebody is willing to admit that socialized healthcare systems have at least one definite downside... You dont get it do you. No one has to wait for socialised healthcare, you can still go and pay to have it done privately IF YOU WANT TO. The difference is those who cant afford to go private can still get treatment EVEN IF IT MEANS A WAIT. Sooner or later you will grasp what is in effect a simple fact, one that most four year olds understand. That's a lie. When community mental health care was totally administered through the counties, there were still private mental health hospitals and psychiatrists who worked privately. The difference was, back then there was far money for actual care. Now, a county that has a $8M annual MH/MR budget is giving $2M of that directly to a private, for-profit insurance company in the form of profit. In the past, the total $8M would have gone to care for the people who needed it.
