Topic	Canadian Man OPTS OUT of FREE HEALTHCARE now gets CANCER and owes 22K!!!
adjl 05/27/20 10:57:57 AM #28:	Zeus posted... If you're paying $35/month, it's not free. It might be greatly subsidized, but it's not free. It's not truly free, but in terms of personal budgeting, it might as well be. "Free" in this case doesn't necessarily mean "you pay nothing for it" so much as "you never have to worry about paying for health care costs because you've already budgeted your $35/month." I'm not sure why people like you fixate so much on the "it's not technically free!" angle when it does so little to discredit the key point of the matter, which is that health care is infinitely more accessible than many other health care systems (namely the US'). --- This is my signature.
