If you have the $$$ you have wonderful coverage in the US, no question... but not everyone has the $$$.
Both systems have their flaws. The thing is, if I need an operation, I don't have to mortgage my house.

True, there are too many Americans without health

I'm not just critictizing your system just because it's a failed socialist experiment. I'm a news junkie and I tend to read alot about this stuff, and it's absolutely breaks my heart to read stories of Canadian children waiting needlessly for life saving surgey.
