you mean like greece where there is free health care.greeks can retire at the age of 54 still young enough to on the streets and riot because the greek government ran out of money to pay for their retirement. In the industrialized nation of The united states it is not the responsibilty of the govrnment to provide you with health care.the socialization of america is whats making America a third world nation

Speak for yourself. I don't live in a thirld world country. I live in the USA, have a good job, the AC is running, the pool is clean, the tomatoes and grapes are fine, Costco is open and the shelves are full, while hundred of happy customers bring their purchases to their SUV to take home. I overheard the assistant manager tell an associate that sales are at the rate of $22,000 per hour. Doesn't sound two third-world to me.

Have you ever stopped and wondered just was a statement like the one you made makes you look like. Whether it be closer to a Mule, Horse or Donkey's south end? Really, go back and read what you wrote. Have you ever been to a third or even second world country? Of course not. Shame shame shame. How about some rational criticisim. For example, Bush spend too much money, eg expanding Medicare prescription coverage, or he spoke to early when stating that the mission (in Iraq) was accomplished, or that we should have never been there in the first place. How about some intellect, oh never mind, not gonna happen.

BTW, the health care system in the U.S. is the best in the world. If you doubt me, ask the Canadian Prime Minister who abandoned the Canadian system and went to Miami for heart surgery. Oh, I AM sorry, you don't deal in facts, my bad.
