13. Rick Scott should be in prison.
Rick Scott, former CEO and Chairman of Colombia/HCA was involved in the nation's biggest health care FRAUD scandal , MEDICARE AND MEDICAID Fraud. The Co. paid over $1.7 Billion to settle the case. He should be in jail, he is the healthcare Bernie Madoff.

...here's a reaction from a Canadian who seen this propagandistic commercial:

This guy is so full of BS!! As a Canadian and follower of U.S. television, I'm outraged by his phoney, outrageous, and obviously scripted commercials for his site. I'm 34 years old and have had universal healthcare since the day I was born. I've been to the hospital countless times for everything from having my tonsils out, pneumonia, my children delivered, stitched up, or medication. I have never had an overly long wait, unless my situation wasn't critical. These commercials are fraudulant and misleading. I have never paid a cent for any of the treatment and do not currently owe for our non-existent bills. My father in law is currently undergoing radiation therapy for prostate cancer on a daily basis, for free. My wife has been to 3 different doctors "this week" regarding our upcoming child, and had an ultrasound performed, all at a whopping $0 price tag. To run these fake commercials bashing our great healthcare system is ridiculous. It's a money making scam invented by the U.S. You idiots dream of the systems Canada has in place, you're welcome for our Dr.s stopping the SARS outbreak, and it will be Canadian Labs that come up with the Vaccine for H1N1 as well. Oh and let's not forget the Canadian Reactor providing the WORLD with Medical Isotopes. Until you adopt our system, don't knock it. America, land of the free? Why is everything in "FreeLand" so overly expensive?
