ConcernedAmerican:
I'm not going to discuss your numbers (although it may be interesting to learn from somebody with an intimate knowledge of the US healthcare system where these 40 millions of Americans go when they're either sick or dying. Shall I assume that bodies are piling up in the streets?) because this kind of rhetoric is typical of the constant French propaganda (congratulation) I mentioned in the previous post, and all I could answer honestly would be something along the line of: "So? What's your point exactly?"
Indeed, before I "check my facts" as you put it, (and before you tell us what kind of facts I'm supposed to check considering that you're challenging my post by shifting to an issue - the US health care - that's not the one I addressed in the article - the French one) I suggest you check your argumentation and tell me how could any aspect of the American health care system makes the French one better and less expensive in absolute value (considering additionally the "slight" difference of income between the average French and American, but that's just a detail really and still not the point.)
Else, well, I have news for you: I have enough of the "You shouldn't complain/you should be happy because it's much worse everywhere else" arguments around here to keep me busy before I go check by myself if the grass is greener in Dallas' hospital.
In the meantime, bodies are piling up in refrigerated trucks on French parking lots and 51 people have only three shower rooms that aren't usable since they're used as cupboards.
Care to comment about that? Or did you post here just to fulfill your daily "Blame America first" assignment, even when America has nothing to do with it?
Yep, I'd say it's a bit amiss and inappropriate today, if you ask me.
