    Let's just stop this insanity right now....it's not FREE healthcare...it's paid for by the tax payers....don't get fooled!

    Something does need to be done about the health insurance issue it needs to be corrected but the quality of treatment we have in America is pretty fucking good....it's just expensive. Look at successful treatment rates for cancer, any kind of cancer between the US and any other country....we usually come out on top. Now all we have to do is make this kind of care affordable to the masses and it needs to have reasonable policies in regards to how policies are handled, that's the big issue. Right now people get sick and the insurance companies or health groups can say "See ya later chump" and they are stuck without insurance OR the person can just get fired and that ends their health benefits OR they die and their family is left shit out of luck unless one of them has health insurance coverage from somewhere else.

    Ummm Lyle that because 4.7 million cancer deaths in 07 happened in developing nations,compaired to 2.9 in the industrialised world.
    It would be almost impossable for us not to be in the top 20

    ....well compare us to England if you want to, our successful treatments for certain types of cancer are better.

    Or better yet compare us to the lovely magical land of Cuba.


    Quality of life, treatments, preventative measures, and success rates in America are hard for any country to compete with. All that needs to change is the health insurance part of the problem

    Interestingly,especially for a tobacco producer,Cuba has the lowest Lung Cancer rate

    Yes, and once it does you'll have a healthcare system similar to France.

    Little piddly Cuba, sitting next to the most powerful and aggressive country on earth..... and spending decades just sticking two fingers up at them, winding them up at every opportunity

    Gotta admire that a bit.

    (best boxers on earth, too)
    If God wanted us to be vegetarians, why are animals made of meat ?

    Castro still wins for greatest political prank of all time.
    Reagan kept yammering on about Political Prisoners in Cuba
    So he just emptied his prisons,gave them boats and sent them here.
    Miami's crime rate has never been the same
