I'm from Canada, we have all of those except for free college

Free college only available for natives

Oh and we have universal healthcare

public

im for a public option tbh

m4a not so much, but more so pragmatic reasons/political

So 100% funded by gov't?

public option is similar to like Germany or France, granted in the us it would be somewhat different

its a option

if you want goverment healthcare you get it

I'd want private school to be included as an option

hospitals would still be private

Doesn't mean it will be good but you'll get it

not all public

wdym in the us private school is an option

as for healthcare, the best system currently is a mix of both public and private, unless it can be treated like a business and lower costs

No I'm just saying I wouldn't want all schooling to be public

I would want private in as well. Also Canada has private, I went to a private school lol

i mean, countries with socialized medicine do pay less per capita, but the issue is sense there is political tensions you run into shortages of for example mris( your from canada you should know).

its not a economic constraint

its just politicans being dumb

Yup long waiting lists

atleast in the us its not a economic one its a political one

ya ik

Yeah that's no bueno

So I agree, the option to have private would be nice.

healthcare I mean

good we can agree

Probs not much for debating between us, but I can see how healthcare is an ongoing debate in the US

yes because politicians dog whistle and strawman

its sad

Since it's extremely politicized

and republicans(alot of dems to) fall for it

@Mystika you seem smart look into modern monetary theory when you get a chance

Also big pharma, you guys pay like $100+ for insulin and here we pay less than $30

Waiting lists and the inability to get fast treatments is a recurring struggle for countries with free public healthcare. You can look at Canada with their waiting lists. Even some of the countries that people think are the best have horrible wait times. Norway is an example. You can wait years with a terrible issue that makes life hell just to get treatment. Taxes are ridiculously high as well, but I already know it would be argued that the free healthcare makes up for it. People in these countries tend to get private healthcare as soon as they can if they intend on using it.

That is why I think Canada should have a private option also

Which we don't

taxes dont fund federal programs in the us

For those who have the money and want to choose the care they get

idc about taxes atleast for now
