S&P’s list of AAA Rated Countries, All of Which Have Socialized Health Care

The debt ceiling debacle was reminiscent of the Tea Party political temper tantrums thrown while President Obama attempted to make Health Care reform a law, giving everyone a chance to enjoy the benefits of decent health care and well being.
 
 While right wing politicians demonized socialized health care, some of them have actually benefited from it.

 

 

Republicans, Conservatives and Tea Partiers united, saying Socialized Health Care would wreak havoc on our economy. They proceeded to deem President Obama as an evil Socialist trying to turn this country into an evil-Marxist-Maoist-Communist [just fill in the blank] entity, but the following countries have socialized medicine and they have an AAA status with Standard & Poor’s.

 

Now that the USA no longer has a stellar AAA status, all remaining countries with AAA ratings have socialized medicine.

 

 

 

 

 While reading this list, remember that our Health Care reform law was watered down after an uprising of Teapublicans marched into Washington screaming, holding misspelled signs — as if they knew more than the rest of the world.

 

AAA countries according to Standard & Poor’s:

    You can go back and watch Ronald Reagan talk in a 1961 video about the evils of Medicare. How it would turn this country into a communist socialist country. The talking points he used in 1961 are the exact same ones they use today on Obamacare!!! Those same Republicans who probably hated it back then are the same ones that love and use Medicare today, and dare it be taken away. It is called Hypocrites!!!!!

    I know China (PRC) don’t have a AAA rating, but it is a Communist state, right, so you would expect socialized healthcare, W-R-O-N-G. Most hospitals wouldn’t admit you unless you pay first, no matter your state of health. If you don’t/can’t pay, they would leave you for dead, literally.

    Just FYI, having been born and grown up on the Island of Guernsey, I can assure you that they definitely DO NOT have socialized healthcare.

    The one thing they DO NOT have, like the USA, though, is the problem of people making a business out of the healthcare industry.

    Here, healthcare is thought of as a business, and pills are advertised on TV. In Guernsey, they worry about treating your health first.

    The way the US health system is, is corrupt, businesslike to the point where you’re alienated from healthcare for not having enough money, or the right insurance. when you go to a doctor here, you consider the cost first. In other places, you worry about your health first.

      @Rick Lowe, Big Pharma and the Insurance profiteers make so much money here from people being sick.
