Sally Pipes on what Sicko left out:
When the government pays for healthcare, saving money is more important than saving lives. So bureaucrats have an incentive to delay – or deny – the introduction of new, costly drugs.It’s not just limited access to drugs that hastens the deaths of the ill and the elderly. Diminished access to physicians, surgeries, and other procedures harm ordinary Canadians, but such rationing is necessary for the Canadian government to keep costs down.
