Health care in Anerica is headed for the cesspool

Obamacare was bad enough then while Congress was in recess Obama named a socialist egg head peditrican to head up Medicare and Medicaid. I have not figured out how a doctor who treats children knows anything about treating old (over 65) people. Actually he is a professor and probably does not really treat anybody on a daily basis.
My big problem though is that he thinks England's socialist health care is great. It is a great provider of jobs-----440,000 people to run a system that cares for 50,000,000 people. The government is England's top employer. At that ratio it will take 3,800,000 employes to run Obamacare for 360,000,000 U.S. citizens. And if Obama can get amnesty and citizenship for
20,000,000 illegals it will take even more to run it.
My biggest concern though is the amount and quality of care especially for the elderly or the very costly to treat younger patients. An example is: English women with breast cancer DO NOT get chemotherapy because "it costs too much" and men with prostate cancer also get inadequate treatment. If socialized medicine is so great why do Canadians who can afford it come
to the U.S. to get treatment. In Canada you can die just waiting to see your family doctor then
wait many weeks to see a specialist then weeks or months to have surgery. Please go to

TRUE.
