Yes, and someone posted just the other day an article about a case in Mexico where there is nationalized health care of a woman forced to give birth outside a clinic on the lawn.

Bullcrap! Here's a recent study undertaken by your very own prestigious Journel of American Medical Associaition that shows the U.K. at position 20 while the U.S. is at a shameful 28 right below Chile and just above Poland.

Mexico is at 33 but, they're even doing better than you on both colerectal and breast cancers

Suck it up butter cup. You should be so freak'n lucky to have the results the U.K is showing across the board for ALL indicators.

What d'ya say we go googling for some good old American medical horror stories now? I'm partial to the one where the third leading cause of death in the U.S. is medical errors, Sheesh! :

Are medical errors the third leading cause of death? | Washington Times Communities

Preventable Medical Errors: Third Cause of Death in the US

Preventable Medical Errors: Third Cause of Death in the US

Oh and I really, really think this one exemplifies the good old American medical "for profit" ethic to a "tee". :

First of all, your thread title makes no damn sense.

Moreover, the cancer death rate in and of itself says nothing. More data than what you're offering needs to be given in order to prove a meaningful correlation.

What types of cancer, at what stages, and on and on. Without that info, your thread is a joke.

Where did you hear that? What is your source for that statement?

I am an American who worked in the UK for several years and while I was there I noted that life expectancy, infant mortality, autism, etc. were better in the UK than in the US.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

You're not wrong, as even a Journel of American Medical Association study has shown.

When you have to wait 6-9 months to even see an oncologist it can get pretty hairy for those that need them the most.
Of coarse the elite and connected can get pushed to the front of the line.
