Re: What Could Go Wrong in the U.S.

The numbers (lifespan) are public. Check with Rev Google.

You implying that the above countries have superior nutrition?

Did you get the "places where you cant even drink the water" point?

Re: What Could Go Wrong in the U.S.

A question was raised, "What is your point?"

Now that we are discovering what is in the bill, we don't like it and don't want it.

That is my point.

Re: What Could Go Wrong in the U.S.

WELL. it is not my nature to fuss however some KNOW NOTHING about a system I have lived under for many years...No wonder folkd try to ride little boats to the USA it is still better than socialist countries...My grandson had a 500 thousand dollar operation for nearly nothing...I will be forever grateful to ST. Francis Hospital... Nothing compared to the filth where I had breat surgery and 2 other surgeries...

I would like for Walks in Islam to have to spend a week in one of our backland hospitals say where my grand daughter was with only one doctor...nurses hooking up people to get blood directly to other people with no knowledge what type blood...
no xray machines...once I was in a hosptital where the water came from the local creek...lol...

My poor mother died a thousand deaths before she really died...I would be in trouble to tell you some of the things I know that goes on in hospitals here...don't forgot I worked many years in a leper colony that had a hospital...if it could be called that...

Obama is a goofball...forgive me for such language he is selling out America as fast as he can...now don't think it is a color problem I have...I have black children, brown children and white children...and I deeply love them all.... color has nothing to do with my opinion of Obama....

Re: What Could Go Wrong in the U.S.

Then, why did a Saudi prince just come to the US (not Canada) just this month for medical treatment?

And, please do not confuse the quality and availability of health care with personal lifestyle choices.

Walks - you are more than welcome to live in your welfare socialist state. Please enjoy it - and please keep it to yourself. And, as long as the citizens who can, leave your country for the US and its medical services, your arguments are moot.

Re: What Could Go Wrong in the U.S.

It will be interesting to see how this health care bill plays out.

The Senate made a big time mistake. They forgot to include the severability clause. It was in the House bill, but left out of the Senate bill. What that means is that if one of the federal judges rules that the insurance mandate clause is unconstitutional, the entire bill will be tossed out.

Quote:
Henry E. Hudson of Federal District Court in Richmond, has promised to rule by the end of the year on the constitutionality of the law’s requirement that most Americans obtain insurance, which takes effect in 2014.

“He’s asked a number of questions that express skepticism,” said one administration official...

The number one destination for wealthy Arab healthcare is the Cleveland Clinic. Of course the Arab Peninsula hospitals get no medical tourists from America.

Re: What Could Go Wrong in the U.S.

anyone want to come make a few hospital visits with me today???? You may have to step over the sick ones lying in the aisles that have no room yet...sit in the dirty waiting room and watch a nurse hook someone up to an IV right there...

When my mother was sick the guards told me if a lady would have sex with them they would let them in at OFF hours...lol...(of course that was unofficial) I reported such conduct without saying who all said that...

my kids know what it is to live in a 3rd world country...ask them where they would lie to be....

Exactly which planet are you living on, because here on earth there's a Eurpoean financial crisis of epic proportions occuring. Percisely because of healthcare and other entitlements that have run out of other people's money.
It's on it's way to America.
