A Burnt Offering At The Altar of Free Enterprise

So, Rand Simberg is fighting the good fight and defending the right of private health insurance firms to be free of government competition, or something like that. The only real justification I can get as to why we need private insurance is that "socialized medicine" will be Bad For Freedom. (Or suck our Precious Bodily Fluids out of our ears - not entirely sure. But It Would Be Bad.)

Well, I asked Rand a question I asked before, namely if "socialized medicine" is so bad, why do foreign conservatives love it so?

While I'm waiting for the answer, I thought I'd share the Conservative Party of Canada's plan for "socialized medicine," which is more funding.

ETA Now I'm told:
a) they’re as misnamed as the “Democratic Party” and
b) the people there aren’t familiar with any other system and
c) they unknowingly piggy back off the US pharma system

Or in other words, "those poor foreigners are idiots."
