Look at all these people making thr same tired fallacious arguments like they’ve been trained, bud. I’m not sure they’re even real people. Rag on Americans, bring up Scandinavian happiness, pretend out system works out of misguided patriotism, and ignore how I mentioned Mexico too.

Sources buddy, show us we’re wrong with sources.

Sure. You know how when you need a dentist you either pay or have private insurance, but because it’s private, you can actually get the care you need in a reasonable time frame? You realize that’s because it’s not a government monopoly? I’m not playing your fucking “source” game when anyone honest can see what’s going on.

No source, no facts

For years now my dentist (who runs a private business) can’t get me an appointment every 6 months like recommended because he’s too busy, I had to wait months for a repair, same experience for my girlfriend at another dentist.

Tons of people haven’t been going to the dentist at all because they couldn’t afford it because it’s private, it’s become so much of an issue that the federal government had to launch the public coverage program.

It’s been a huge success, so much so that dentists can’t keep up with the increased demand. Based on what you’re saying the fact that dental care is private should mean that demand wouldn’t have increased when public coverage started, right? Because private care and private insurance is so much better that everyone gets to go whenever they want and everyone can afford it, right?

The only person not arguing in good faith and lying here is you. The proof being that you’re just unable to provide sources to back up your claims but you keep arguing.

So, start making arguments that are based in fact that refute what they are saying. I see a lot of comments by you but nothing of substance.
