A socialized health care system for United States

If you have good health insurance, you may or may not believe that the United States' health care system needs help or a complete overhaul. If you don't have health insurance, or have poor coverage, you probably think the system could use some work.

The website Freeourhealthcarenow hints that President Obama and Congress are leaning toward a socialized health care system as part of health care reform. According to the site, more government involvement in health care means less choice for the consumers and limited access to treatment. The site lists Canada and Britain as examples of how not to run a health care system, but doesn't say exactly what is undesirable about these two country's programs. A better approach might be to ask citizens of Canada and Britain whether they feel their health care system meets their needs.
