I think you missed the point here... Regardless of choice, there will *always* be a need for someone to fill these sorts of low paying jobs. Always.

You can talk about going to school and working hard all you want but for many, even working hard is not going to earn them a break to a new level on the economic ladder.

Someone will be left behind.


As for the government refusing surgery. I can say from experience that I do not know, nor have I ever heard of anyone being turned away at a Canadian hospital.
