Allow me to rock your world.
America has about 6000 hospitals. 5121 of those are publicly accessible and 1224 are completely free. That's twice as many charity hospitals as Canada has Tim Horton's. Literally.
Then, when you see a doctor, the doctor speaks English and went to school somewhere you've heard of. Harvard is not the only way to get educated, but it is nice in the fall.
We don't push people into medically assisted suicide for cost reasons.
We don't ask people with emergency conditions to sit in the ER for 10 hours before they see a doctor.
So yes, if you have a cutting-edge disease and you go to a private hospital and get the best care in the world, you're on the hook for it.
But note that you are also ALIVE.

People say Canadian healthcare is not free, because we pay taxes for it. But in America, people pay taxes and still have to pay for healthcare out of their pockets. And if they are broke, the hospital tells them to go die.
