That retort is from someone who has never shown up early for an appointment and had to wait until two hours after the appointment time just to see a Physician's Assistant. While watching pharma reps get casually buzzed in without an appointment. In a waiting room where you can't look in any direction without seeing some form of pharma merch.
Source: lived experience.
I think you're giving "someone" too much credit. I suspect the retort comes from someone who consumes too much conservative propaganda.
Perhaps. Hell, such a person may have the same experience as I, but may never weigh that experience against the nightmare scenario conservative propaganda has presented to them as the horror of socialized medicine.
Good guess but it was primarily heard from liberal Canadians I’ve played games with most of my life
