From the posts I've been getting from the conservatives, I don't think they care whether 20% of the children living at the poverty level have access to the system. They just want the the wealthy to have access or be protected from litigation. They would tell us that's better for those 20% impoverished children. That's democratic freedom as they see it. Higher poverty levels, lower minimum wage, limited access to the litigation system. Industry persons [anonomously] forming energy policy. Democratic freedom is established because the neighbor has a Jag and someone from France feels "free air". How does that air smell to the 20% impoverished children. Country Life Expectancy 1998 Health Expenditures as % GDP US 76.2 14% Netherlands 78.3 8.5% Germany 77.3 10.6% Greece 78.6 8.6% France 78.8 9% Canada 79.6 9.3% Japan 80.2 7.4% Sweden 79.3 8.6% Australia 80.4 8.4% Austria 79.5 8.3% So the US has the highest GDP in the world; doctors are the highest paid in the world; a higher percentage of the the GDP goes into health care than anywhere else; and we have the lowest life expectancy. Data come from the US Census Bureau. census.gov Section 30. Possible conservative responses: 1. The US Census Bureau hates America because of its freedoms, economic success and military prowess. 2. Stay in that socialist cesspool. 3. It proves that 35+ years of Democrats throwing money at the problem doesn't help 4. You can't assure me that the US Census Bureau applies the same standard to life expectancy. 5. You've proved that there are countries more socialist than the US. 6. We have the best health care system in the world; the Prince of Saudi Arabia comes to the Mayo clinic for treatment. 7. My next door neighbor has a Jag. 8. My next door neighbor with the Jag smells free air. 9. Anyone can carry a 9mm semiautomatic weapon. jttmab
