YES! YES! YES!
I live in BC, where our healthcare system is being terribly eroded, while they continue to raise our costs. We pay $120/mo! for this ridiculous service that they keep cutting and cutting, all the while with a big surplus in the budget. Bastards. You can guarantee that it's because they want to make way for the privatization of healthcare.
And as for the fuckers that say, "I have the money, I should be able to get X fixed now, not wait in line", I say, "You can. There's a country to the south of us who'd love to have your money. Go to it."
