Obamacare Lie #4: You won’t have to wait months for an operation

Sure, you won’t have to wait months.  You’ll have wait SEVERAL months!  Ever see what happens when a gas station offers $1 gas or when a burger joint gives away free burgers?  What happens?  Long lines!  When payment is severed from service, people tend to demand more than normal.  This leads to lines.  Long lines.

Now imagine if you could go to the doctor whenever you wanted without paying anything extra.  You might go to the doctor for a hang nail.  A bloody nose.  Or a mild cough.  Why not?  It’s “free”!  There’s only one thing short of machine guns that will reduce lines.  It’s free market prices.

If you don’t think there will be long waits for operations, check out the videos on this site.  Every year thousands of Canadians come to the US just to get healthcare.  You see, they’d rather pay for healthcare that’ll save their lives than wait for “free” healthcare that may take 6 months or more to get.  If you had cancer or something similarly serious, would you want to wait several months for treatment or cross the border to the US and get immediate treatment?

What’s worse than waiting months for an operation?  Being denied that operation by government healthcare bureaucrats.  Check out the John Stossel video on the site.  An elderly Canadian woman was denied alife-saving operation because the bureaucrats told her it was “elective.”  Luckily, she found Rick Baker from Timely Medical Alternatives that helped her get care over here for medical care.  In the video she says the only thing elective about her surgery was that she “elected to live!”  See it for yourself.
