The kerfuffle kept going, because Progs and faithful Syrupeans "know" the US sucks. One US hater challenged me, "How many in the US die because they don't have health insurance?" The hater didn't know what kind of an A-hole I am and thought this was an unanswerable GOTCHA. Well I'm the kind of A-hole that would think to DDG that question AND DDG how many Syrupeans die due to delays in treatment. Lo and behold, almost twice as many such deaths happen in the US as in Canuckia (~45K vs. ~24K, IIRC). But if you take into account the two countries' very different populations, calculate deaths per capita, Canuckia is 4X-5X "worse" than the US.
I'm such an A-hole that this did not surprise me,
