Has he never waited a long time for an appointment? I had a three month wait to see a cardiologist.

He had plenty of long waits for appointments, but facts and reasoning weren't involved.

Case in point: A 3 month wait in Canada - must be caused by universal healthcare = healthcare rationing = bad. That same 3 month wait in the U.S. = Freedom!

Well at least you know his answer to the trolly problem I guess

[–] Professorozone@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

Yeah, sounds right.

He might have to wait 3.5 months, cause someone with more pressing need got priority...
