So, if I got this right, when they say "there will be long lines" they don't mean, "having an appointment at 2:00, and not seeing the doctor until 4:00," right?

I've never waited in a line.

I've been in a waiting room, before.  Once for up to half an hour, but nothing more.  The only time there could've been lines recently is with swine flu, and even then, the medical advice to stay at home and get someone else to pick up the drugs staved that off.  I suspect they are thinking of Soviet breadlines and applying them to Canadian and UK healthcare providers.

The "waiting in line" for Canuck or UK medicine was debunked by Michael Moore (like him or leave him) in Sicko.

The waiting in line thing in the UK comes in when you need specialists from the people I've talked to who have been in the system.  Not emergency rooms.  You get that in the US anyway though.

We get it ALL in the US...even in the top fields at the top hospitals.  That's why I have to larf hysterically when Fux News badgers all and sundry about how we have "the best health care system in the world!"

Sad but true... idiots always turn to the loudmouthed idiots when they're scared about the future. And it doesn't get much louder, or more idiotic than FAUX News.

On the contrary...Fox is plenty smart.
