I have a family friend that is from Canada and he complains about the wait he sometimes has to face when it comes to medical procedures. That wouldn't be the first time I've heard of it either.

My question is--wouldn't there be a wait in America when you factor in our population combined with unhealthy lifestyles such as obesity and drug use--be it illicit, prescription abuse, or tobacco and alcohol consumption?

I also believe narcotic abuse would skyrocket as well unless there was some sort regulation set up and better paths to recovery for addicts.

I'm not necessarily against UHC, I just would like these points addressed. No doubt they have been brought up before; just haven't seen the discussion myself.
