Thanks Judi,
Stark differences in percentages. I'll take the free system vs. government controlled health care. Our elitist 'representatives' are not representing the American people on this one.
I would like to see a bunch of American service people return and be voted into office. Qualifications- smolifications( not a word), they have protected us. Let them represent us. I doubt the libs could buy them off as they have our elitists.

Health care percentages in USA, England, and Canada
Very interesting.
A recent "Investor's Business Daily" article provided very interesting statistics from a
survey by the United Nations International Health Organization.
Percentage of men and women who survived a cancer five years after diagnosis:
U.S. 65%
England 46%
Canada 42%
Percentage of patients diagnosed with diabetes who received treatment within six months:
U.S. 93%
England 15%
Canada 43%
Percentage of seniors needing hip replacement who received it within six months:
U.S. 90%
England 15%
Canada 43%
Percentage referred to a medical specialist who see one within one month:
U.S. 77%
England 40%
Canada 43%
Number of MRI scanners (a prime diagnostic tool) per million people:
U.S. 71
England 14
Canada 18
Percentage of seniors (65+), with low income, who say they are in "excellent health":
U.S. 12%
England 2%
Canada 6%
I don't know about you, but I don't want "Universal Healthcare" comparable to England or Canada .
Moreover, it was Sen. Harry Reid who said, "Elderly Americans must learn to accept the inconveniences of old age."
SHIP HIS ASS TO CANADA OR ENGLAND !
