The same guy who stated that Cuba has better health care than the
USA.

Imagine that.
How do you know it's not true as your gov. won't let you go and see
for yourself? Cuban health care is free to everyone. Even you if you
could get there.
You are another of the brainwashed.

Free does not equal good.

Health care in Canada is free also, but we see a significant number of
Canadians in the U.S. for care.

No, it isn't free in Canada. It is paid for through taxation. Those
with private insurance in Canada can't use it in public facilities, thus
the trip to the US?

For example, there are fewer than 200 MRI machines in the whole country of
Canada (and probably none in Cuba). We have more MRI machines in my CITY
than in the whole country of Canada.


The number of MRI machines is pretty irrelevant without considering the
populations served, the access, the quality of medical care by the
provider who orders testing, the patient's cooperation, etc. There are
probably 20 MRI machines within 5 miles of where I live, but if I can't
afford an office visit, the machine's existence means diddly squat.

My local hospital has marble floors, walnut panelling, free transport to
their network facilites, volunteers crawling all over the place...some
are entitled to luxury, some entitled to nothing.
