You can't bull sh*t these numbers: Canada blows the sh*t out of the U.S. in life expectancy.

en.wikipedia.org

#10 Canada life expectancy: 80.34
#30 U.S life expectancy: 78.06

The U.S. health care system SUCKS. We pay 6.5% more of our GDP for our private health care system than Canada's public universal care system, and what we get is that WE DIE QUICKER.

WAKE THE HELL UP.

Now, I don't intend to reply to any more of your posts until you explain why Pelosi and the Dems don't want the government option for themselves?

Where in the bill it says that this does not apply to Congress. I have not heard this point being raised by the Congress folks who oppose this bell.

Can you point me to a MSM URL that says so. If you are unable to do so then please quit posting on this subject. Again, I want to be clear, not a blog URL but a MSM URL.

how come most canadians would not trade their health care system for ours? How come they live, on average, two years longer than our citizens?
