  3. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Very interesting post Fiona!! I only have one friend who's gone to the US, I didn't realize it was so common. It's not right to expect a province to cover the costs in my opinion, especially if you've...

    What if I wanted to pay for an MRI tomorrow though, and shoulder surgery in the fastest possible time? The reason I'm asking is my friend recently flew to Florida to have this done because he got...

  5. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Technically, the difference was actually "gone" to nursing school (past tense), not "going" (present tense). So let me get this straight, you have no interest in the argument itself. You just want to...

  6. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    That argument suggests that there would be zero benefit to a two tier system then. Which is why I asked about privatized health care quality earlier. I'd say if someone is choosing to spend $100k...

  7. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Holy smokes, it's like you didn't read the thread at all. I never said I went to nursing school, I said I am in nursing school. In my experience trolls like attention, and don't actively encourage...

  8. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I'm not trying to impress you... and what does that have to do with anything? lol Do you really want to play semantics? You didn't make the actual argument but you agree with it. You're opinion of...

    I'm sorry. What specifically sounds angry to you? I do realize the way I type doesn't come off very well. I've been told this countless

  10. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    You misunderstood... the argument, the WHO says it's a right, therefore makes it a right, is a logical fallacy. I didn't mind your speculations, although they don't deal with the argument

  11. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Again, this is a logical fallacy. Argument from

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Is there a difference between the two tier systems of the US and say Canada or Australia? Or all two tier systems similar in your

  13. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    How do you feel about the two tier system as a whole? Are there quality differences in care, and if so, do you think that's okay in your

  14. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Well Ontario denies that's happening. The difference would be, why can't one get a tax credit for paying for their own health

  15. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    To others on this thread... What would be wrong with a true two tier system where insured services are also offered privately? Have those who pay for their own health care insurance get a tax credit....

  17. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Yet you care about the political views of a complete stranger on the internet? Do we need to rehash that shibaowner... Lets just say I really don't believe you.

  18. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Alternatively we could provide service and bill them... I'm confused though, are you saying asking someone to pay their own bill for services is not compassionate and

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I was going to refrain from posting, but decided I would... This is awesome! I needed that, cheers.

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Alternatively we can lobby for change... vote, and support things like privatized health care. I would agree its going around in

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Thank you, I'm also aware I can sound like a jerk in text too. So some might be taking offence to how I'm presenting myself, I'm actually trying not to be though. I realize I have things to work on...

  23. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I could never turn anyone away. You'd have to have a heart of stone to do that. I don't have the answers, and never said I did... but I still think a socialist health care system isn't right

  24. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I agree with you, yet anytime I attack socialism in anyway on this forum, I get accused of not being emphatic, compassionate, loving, respectful etc... My thread attacking leftism comes to

  25. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    You're misunderstanding, it's taking peoples money through taxation for services which they may not desire to fund which makes it immoral. That is separate from the discussion of if it is a right...
