24. WE DON'T HAVE TO WAIT AS LONG TO SEE A DOCTOR SO IT'S OK! WE HAVE THE BEST HEALTHCARE IN THE WORLD!!

... and if you believe that, you've been drinking conservative-cool-aide.

Seriously, has anyone heard any other rebuttals than "my tax dollars shouldn't go toward other's health" and "in those other county's you have to wait too long to see a doctor" to universal healthcare??? because those are the only other two I've heard and they're pathetic.

Sean Hannity said "Healthcare in Britain is a joke" but according to the World Health Organization, the US's healthcare is ranked 37th in the world (that's pathetic ESPECIALLY for an industrialized country), we have 46 million people who don't even have health insurance, ours costs the most, and we have the health mortality rate of a third world country but all of this is okay because our rich get a little richer and we don't have to wait that long for a doctor.

...so how do we the best healthcare in the world again? Because I still haven't heard the answer.
