Now I am going to explain it to you. There is no one 'to pay'.

The taxes (which are high) pay for health care "for all" All. All. Eveyone.
Everybody. There are no private clinics. Doctors get paid by submitting
bill to the government.All Canadian are covered. Canada pays LESS per
capital than
the united state because of the one payer (the Government) system.

The concet of 'being able to pay' does not come up. It is not part of
the equation.

Please, John, try to understand. I would like to get through to someone in
this echo, for once. :-)

==============
See? There is a faulty premise here:

, and still takes advantage of government paid
-> care (in effect using resources that should go to those who CANNOT pay
their
-> own way) are leeches."

Thibnk of it as a huge instrence policy covering all citizens.
You are not against insurance are you?

==========

Now the government's ivolvment with health care is
an issue that can be well debated...and whether large nations can and or
should be as involved as smaller nations...
all part of a larger debate...

One says 'leech' with grumble and rant
I say I'm a grateful participant 

Cheers, my fierce Opponant...:-)
