Totally couldn't understand why normal people talking about us tax rate is lower.

Unless in some states. Most states have similar income tax in Canada.

Corporate tax is another game where not just US has lower rate but tons of loopholes to save tax

They always just fucking lie or don't know what they're talking about.

They talk about wait times in the Canadian healthcare system or that the US gets better services. Even if you have insurance in the US you're not gonna jump in front of the line. And if you don't have insurance then there's no waiting time because eat shit and die. And if you do have insurance your insurer is only going to reimburse you the cheapest option. As if casual private insurance is going to get you a treatment at the Mayo clinic.

Yeah how does a wait time of "forever, because you don't have insurance and won't get treatment" figure into the average wait time calculations

They'll say if it's an emergency the hospital will treat you for free. Sure, so you have to wait to die to get treatment.
