This is how strange a free market approach to healthcare looks to a Canadian like me

July 18, 2017 by Randal

Imagine a world in which all citizens were not extended protection by the police. Instead, the government aimed to offer people various tax credits and incentives to buy police protection from private security firms. And as a result, some people were protected by powerful armed militias, others had spotty protection from ill-equipped security guards, and still others were left to fend for themselves as in The Purge.

Crazy, right?

That’s how the Republican free market approach to healthcare looks to a Canadian like me.
