This country has some of the most advanced healthcare in the world, yet people are being left to die

[MrScorpio]

Well, all I have to say is that this is further proof that those people who still claim that we're the "Greatest country in the world" really don't know what they're talking about.


We either have a LOOOONG way to get to that point, or in comparison, the rest of the world SUCKS.

1. Look up the mortality rates for

breast cancer in U.S. and Britain.

2. But we can't afford to cover the uninsured....

....say the same people who supported spending $12 billion per month in Iraq, including providing health services for Iraqis.

The arguments against universal coverage (no matter how we get there) are just empty.

5. They say health care can't be free, someone has to pay

[LibDemAlways]

3. Ironically, we have very advanced medicine and

a very poor delivery system based on ability to pay. All in all a very backward situation.

4. It's about Class distinctions

But nobody likes to talk about that

[annabanana]

6. The death count of this "Class War" is rising... and

guess who's losing.. .
