The Reasons for Unhealthy Americans

Yeah, but it isn't gonna 'cause capitalism doesn't work that way.

If I get deathly sick-If I can't just bull through it, I guess I'm gonna hafta die.

I always see that phrase "the rest of the world is laughing at us" but no one ever says which countries are laughing. Is England laughing? Not the ones I've heard. Are the Canadians laughing? No, Canada and England try to warn us. So who is laughing at us? People from all over the world want to live here and the bleeding hearts think we should just let them all in and take care of them. Could that be what they're laughing at? I see nothing funny about the way we're forced to take care of people that aren't even citizens, plus the legitimate citizens that can't or won't take care of themselves.

RP, not to pry but I know many people around here that drive a school bus simply because they provide health insurance. They don't provide you insurance?

I don't know of anyone in the world who laughs at our health care system.  People from all over the world come here to be treated in our hospitals.  They don't want to be treated in their own countries, and will pay the money for treatment here.

That is true.

Try living in the UK or Canada and get back to us.
