A new report released Thursday says that privatization of health care in Ontario won’t reduce wait times but may actually increase them.

The difference is that those in the public interest always argue this debate from the perspective of actually taking care of people

Those that argue for private health care argue for it as a money making business.

This is what pisses me off most about attacks on public services. Saskatchewan killed STC, the provincial highway public transit/freight system. It was costing 17 million more to run than what they were bringing in. If we assume only 250,000 taxpayers (individual and business), that’s a lousy $68 apiece. I’m one of the proverbial fixed income seniors and I can come up with that much.

It’s stupid, short-sighted, and heartless.
