Is Obama Care the same as NHS?

I don't know about Obama care, but the NHS isn't very good, at least if you compare it to health care in Canada.

You say the NHS isnt very good and though I cant argue with that (due to finance cuts), have you ever been in a room with a Doctor and the Doctor said to you the chances of your Dad living are less than 30%? I hope you havent been, yet I have and he survived, not only that but a second time I was told something similar and had to go to the hospital in the middle of the night becuase my Dad might not survive the night,... no, not expected to live the night. yet he did, both times, and that is thanks to the NHS and the people who work there.

Congratulations on your dad's survival. Its a miracle that he's still alive. 

The doctors are generally very good that work for the NHS, but nurses and other professionals are known to not be very good. Its a well known problem. My sister has given birth in both Canada and the UK, and she said giving birth in the UK was much worse because nurses were not as well trained, they don't give you any drugs to lower the pain etc. These are problems that the NHS needs to solve, but most of them are due to low funding. I mean, the Canadian healthcare system isn't great either but its not as low funded as the NHS (probably because the UK is twice as populated).
