I met 3 Canadians in a WV hospital in 2011 when I got a hip replacement surgery. 2 of em cried when they found out I only had to wait a few weeks so my employer could get someone to fill in for me.
All 3 Canadians and 2 Brits waited 5 years to get joint replacement surgeries before giving up and traveling to WV to get it. Most borrowed money to pay for it.
"Don't let em do this to you," one said.
Up until I met it's victims I mistakenly thought Socialized Medicine was a good idea.
Ask the man who has it.
