Why Socialized Medicine Can't Work

If you go to see Sicko, the Michael Moore film, and get all hot and bothered about socialized medicine, or as he refers to it, "free medical care," I got news for you:
It won't work.
I've seen government-sanctioned hillbillies in action. And it won't work.
If it's free, they want it all.
They will go to the hospital for every reason. Cold, sniffles, cuts, bruises, VD, you name it.
This will eventually choke the system.
Here's my take: if the government can't handle Medicare, Medicaid, Veteran's hospitals, or Social Security, how can we trust them to take over medical care for the entire nation?
