you cant compare other countries who have healthcare to the U.S. with out looking at the whole country as a whole.for instance, France has a higher unemployment rate than the U.S...........
in France insurance is not free.you are taxed.and the "free" insurance you get is basic,most people actually buy additonal insurance plans and still end up paying out the pocket............"free" insurance is not free.NO WHERE.......
and yes broski,France as does in every other country with government controlled healthcare limits your choice...........
dont listen to Michael Moore, he doesnt tell the whole story...........
