The United States at this point would be bankrupt if it adopted our Canadian health care policy.

Oh really? Because Canada spends like 1/2 as much money per citizen as does the US on healthcare.

Yes, the U.S spends outrageous money for health care and that is without Universal coverage! Canada spends over $200 Billion in health care for 35 million people. Unites States has 313 million. I'd assume at the lowest rate if the U.S could cut costs to equal what Canada spends on the average citizen then it would be minimum $2 Trillion per year, if the rates stay the same there would be a highend of $4 Trillion (which would bankrupt The States at this point). Until the U.S manages it's finances to where there is no longer a substantial deficit, Universal Health Care is not a viable option.
