The problem with giving them that kind of power is "Well, we don't like what you believe" or "We don't like how you voted. You won't get the cancer care you need." I know that is an extreme case, but I have a severe distrust of government. Now I do know that European social medicine, at least Dutch, seems to be working better than the American idea, don't know about the other countries. But the private sector is still involved. Take a look at our social medicine, Obamacare, and how well it is being implemented.
    I get to choose my doctor as well for the most part and if I'm willing to pay the costs myself I can probably choose any doctor.
    That you cannot trust your government is not a problem of socialized medicine but a problem with your way of thinking, your society and how your government works.
