Socialized medicine (treating patients) and socialized medical research are two different things. Medical research is mostly funded by government already in the USA (I used to work in a lab and most money came from the NIH).

Not exactly there skippy...

http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/...rticle1315753/

"A major portion of the money used to fund the research came from the B.C. Cancer Foundation's Weekend to End Breast Cancer walk, as well as donations raised across the province during the annual breast-cancer walk over the past six years. Funding also came from other groups, including the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation."

Researchers found it based on monies from donations. Socialized medicine didn't give squat. Alot of the drugs we have here in the U.S. are researched by our drug companies, paid for by private insurance; ultimately by us.

Nice try. lol

Too bad nobody is proposing socialized medicine in the US.
Socialized medicine is what they have in the UK.

The concern here in the US is insurance and what type of model would best suit the people.

Unregulate the piss out of it where the only government envolvement is enforcing the contracts the two or more private parties agree to.

Fact: a country with socialized medicine decoded the DNA sequence of breast cancer.

Fact: you all use Canada's medical system as an example of what is wrong with socialized health care.


Fact: donations are a form of socialism.
Fact: insurance company run medical system didn't do it.

Fact: you all would rather drive yourself off a cliff in a burning car than acknowledge the benefits of a socialized health system.


Fact: this is ultimately a good thing. Regardless of who discovered it.
