Take a look into low birth weight babies born in Canada vs the
US.

Again, I prefer to look at more meaningful statistics. Let's
look at
life expectancies. Out of 8 countries (USA, UK, Canada,
Germany,
Mexico, France, Italy, and Japan) the USA ranks 7th in both men
and
women's life expectancies. The USA does fare better than Mexico
on this
measure, however. Since you're comparing, Canada ranks 4th
among these
nations for women and 2nd place for men.

======================
Again, the response was in reply to his claim that the poor in
the US are not getting any meaningful care.
Like wilko, you snip out the entire post to try to make it say
something that was not being said. The response you have taken
as a stand alone statement without context, by dishonestly
snipping out the parts you don't like, was solely about his
remark the 'poor' people are not taken care of. The reply I gave
was perfectly appropriate to his claim as it compared the
so-called disadvantaged of the US to the normal Canadian. In
this instance, the normal Canadian lost, despite the jingoistic
chest thumping you and kman like to engage in.




What in hell is going on here, rick?! This is all wrong! The
conventional wisdom just screams that the USA should be at the
top of
the list. Somebody must be ****ing around with the statistics,
eh?

==================
Some where you must have snipped out the part where I claimed the
US system is best. Maybe you could restore that posts for us,
eh?
