Topic: Palin Crossed Border for Canadian Healthcare | |
---|---|
Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin -- who has gone to great lengths to hype the supposed dangers of a big government takeover of American health care -- admitted over the weekend that she used to get her treatment in Canada's single-payer system.
"We used to hustle over the border for health care we received in Canada," Palin said in her first Canadian appearance since stepping down as governor of Alaska. "And I think now, isn't that ironic?" The irony, one guesses, is that Palin now views Canada's health care system as revolting: with its government-run administration and 'death-panel'-like rationing. Clearly, however, she and her family once found it more alluring than, at the very least, the coverage available in rural Alaska. Up to the age of six, Palin lived in a remote town near the closest Canadian city, Whitehorse. Officials at several hospitals in that area declined to give out information on patient visits. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/03/08/palin-crossed-border-for_n_490080.html |

That is what I'm asking I agree, its not her choice if it was during her childhood, just like where OBama went to school or attended religious service. But I still do envy the national healthcare system in Canada and other places...lol |
