I used to be anti-private health care, but I am starting to change my tune.

I have moved around a lot in my adult life and because of that, I can never seem to get a family doctor. The waiting lists are just too long. I make enough money that I could afford to pay for it, but that option isn't readily available in most places. Waiting in a walk-in clinic for 5 hours during a work day isn't an option either. I've let a couple of health issue slide because of the logistics of our health care.

I'd love for the NDP to come in and solve it with more doctors and all that, but I don't understand how that happens. Do we invade Cuba and kidnap their doctors? My heart wants to support the NDP, but my head won't let me.
