Huh?
Its been 'tried'....the UK 'tried' it....we've 'tried' it here in Canada....a system that is completely public does not work as well as a system where certain aspects are sent to the private sector.
Every European country who has had a public system has realized that and has responded accordingly....creating the two-tier system.
Frankly I think too many Canadians are afraid that if Health Care in Canada is pushed a bit more towards the private side, we're suddenly going to become like the US. Which isn't true....if anything, we're going to become like some of the European countries YOU alluded too.
