Health Insurance companies are still in control of health care, and they also know nothing about medicine.
The big difference is that they want to charge $500.00 for the one-time use of a wooden tongue depressor.

You have a single payer, and all money is used for Health Care, not a slush-fund. You also do not have to pay Middle-Men, they are the insurance companies, and they are the real crooks.
Insurance, the largest scam known to the Western World after christianity.

The title of the thread makes it pretty clear, except government controlled health care here and it doesn't work that way...

If you read the cartoon then you would grasp that it is talking about the government having access to private medical records.

In Canada we don't treat our residents as spies, hence nothing sinister and ridiculous like the Patriot Act need apply. The US Government is the most paranoid organization in the World. There are none that even come close. That's why the Dilbert cartoon portrays the US Government looking up peoples arses, because of their intense paranoia of everything.

It isn't really that the paranoia is unfounded. The last few years are littered with revelation after revelation of the government invading the privacy of individuals, keeping records on law abiding citizens as if there is some hidden agenda and circumventing Constitutional rights, all in the name of public safety. Believe it or not, people actually do have the right to personal privacy. Some analyst in Denver should not be able to access the results of my blood test or take a peek at what medicines I take just because they have nothing better to do.
