>Do you positively claim that Canada's healthcare system spends only $88/month on each Canadian citizen? General statistics, e.g. available in wikipedia, show that the number is 5 times higher. As it can be easily deduced, due to the fact that money do not grow on trees, someone's free treatment means that someone else pays for it.

I have no problem with that.

>In regard to someone's chance to get broken by US healthcare, I feel obliged to tell an example: I knew a guy whose wife got in coma, due to medical error, with no chance to returning back. He promptly made a separate, put her on medicaid (no bills to pay) and when she finally died he collected 2M from doctor's malpractice insurance. That's how things work in America. Everyone cries about people gettting bankrupt because of medical bills. Nobody complains about billions made on medical litigation.

Nobody? Do you have sources on that? I do complains about that. But free healthcare for everyone is far more important IMO.

Whatever the system in place, there will always be fraudsters (as you demonstrated in your example).
