By the way, if anyone has the slightest doubt that Donald is full of shit about Canadians getting “the best treatment” and “better care” should their country be annexed by the US, I encourage them to note the relative positions of Canada and the USA on this graph. - ThreadSky

To be fair, he did say best treatment, not best DIET. I'll even buy his McDonalds for him.. For every meal. ;)

I interpret this as proof that the big health care companies and producers of pharmaceuticals are more interested in maintaining chronic health conditions Americans live with than curing them. The doctor who successfully cures a patient loses a repeat customer.

The people who believe this nonsense are likely not bright enough to be able to interpret the graph. 😏

Guess where on the graph Ronald Reagan became president?

You read my mind.

Yeah, but that's the life expectancy for median person. They don't care about the median person, they care about the life expectancy of the decadently wealthy.

Yeah - the rest of the world literally thinks US healthcare is a sick joke

We think the same about the US education system too - it created Trump and all the other munchkins running the US government right now

He's trying to sell Canada bollox too. They're too smart for his nonsense.

We can always put a period after Trump is full of shit. His babbling about Canada is incoherent and disconnected from reality (like his nonsense about the US subsidizing Canada and a fictitious $200 billion). As Fareed Zakaria noted years ago, Trump is a b.s. artist.

What all these graphs fail to mention is that those with money are still in the top left, it's the American hoi-poloi who drag it down and right, and who cares about them. Decision makers and policy setters are doing just fine.

Except for that one policy setter...

When "best" equates to most profitable, then yes, Americans have the best healthcare system.

If success in healthcare is the sustained health of the participants in that system and, you know, living through the system; not so much

The life expectancy of any uninvited american boots on the ground in Canada is going to drop precipitously.

MAGAts just say sh*t, and if no-one objects, just say it louder...
