No need to wonder...the best medical care in this country is reserved

Radical, totally radical. People like you and I with good insurance
and disposable income get better care, radical.



Once again...whooooooosh.

I guess you are just too profound for us ordinary mortals. Are you
suggesting that *everyone* should get exactly the same level of health
care regardless of their ability to pay? They have that in Canada
and no one seems to like it very much.

Perhaps you could state your point a little more succinctly.

Remember, the thread you are responding to was started based on a
"study" by a group that had already decided what the outcome of that
study would be.

There are no real supporting statistics.

U.S. scores dead last again in healthcare study


What are the criteriea being evaluated and who did the evaluation?


Go look it up. We have typically scored very low in all the standard
categories, esp. if you remember that we spend multiples of what those
who
do better spend.


It makes you wonder why people travel here from all over the world to
get some of our inferior health care.


For specialized operations and treatments we do great. For common stuff
like life-expectancy we rate at the 3rd World level. THAT makes you
wonder.


Quit drinking, smoking, and eating so much junk food.


Sounds like you've identified your next New Year resolutions. Feel free to
not wait for Jan. 1st to start.


Does it hurt when you continually bang your head up against a wall?


The point he is making is our worst demographic for life expectancy is
also the worst for obesity, high fat diets, smoking, drug abuse and
death from criminal activity


Not counting too much stress.

I think he's suggesting that all the people of the US should get at least
the basic care for a reasonable price. As we have it now, there are millions
without care.

As to what they have in Canada, most Canadians find it quite acceptable. So,
you're fabricating like crazy.

We all know that's a problem. He's trying to use that argument to deny
people basic coverage. He's an idiot.

In your case, no real brain power.
