Krimel said to Arlo: I have had it with your liberal distortions of the facts. ...The bias here is tragically obvious, "the only country in the developed world" indeed as every wing-nut knows we are the ONLY developed country in the world. Claiming that we are the only one who doesn't do this ignores that 100% of the developed civilized countries do not guarantee health care.
dmb says: The USA's health care system can't be compared to other developed countries. It ranks somewhere between Slovenia and Costa Rico. I can't site a source or tell you what the factual basis is, but there are a couple of dozen countries ranked higher than the USA and only some of them are "developed". The USA is first and best only when "development" is measured in corn syrup consumption or malls per square mile. The country is young Just crawled to its feet Takes a step a collapses all in a heap Resist the temptation to slap the child down Try to remember its age Realize the potential Deflect all the rage Not too big on the sharing, the gentle or the caring. The country is young, the county is young It Lost like an orphan on the day it was found Dragged down to the river but it just wouldn't drown So big and so clumsy Never knew it was born Suddenly torn in bright lights without any noise You gotta wipe its fat ass And buy it some toys Not too big on the sharing, the gentle or the caring. The country is young, the country is young The country is young Its got bad growing pains Growing out of its clothes Stretching out on the plains One day I know before its much older Its gonna pick up the phone and call the cops on me It'll feed on itself to set us all free Not too big on the caring, the gentle or the sharing But still so much fun, the country is young.
