So move to freaking Cuba dude. Seriously! Be gone!

You as a tourist for example can go to any hospital and get care, for free. Go figure.

LOL, yea thats why their citizens are swimming over here , because we have such bad healthcare . I bet that idiot moore has a US doctor .

They do not have better health care than the United States does.

That is a myth

Yea, they have good healthcare... look how that's working out for them.

Seriously, if countries with socialized healthcare look like Cuba, and Cuba's the best example you can give, we really do not want socialized healthcare.

OH I GET IT NOW. The reasons liberals want gov't run healthcare is so our country will degrade to the level of other countries with socialized medicine (i.e. Cuba). It all makes since now. The old "America is evil and too powerful" motive.

We can, and do, take care of our citizens. All the citizens have to do is seek the treatment - they have to ask - it is there.

Taking care of its citizens = locking them up for dissenting?
