australia..has medicare... universal health insurance. for starters..at moment there is a strong "socialistic" outlook government based on caring and sharing... but soon to be rolled by a right wing fanatical Catholic liberal...with an eye to the throne... and a mind to getting back to the business of helping the rich evade taxes... sucks the little people in with his one line mantras... "i'll do it right for you"...
where do i migrate to when the lunatic that he is... get's his hands on the wheel to steer the "good ship lollypop" back to the land of greed...?. .merle RAF, Do I know how to elicit a response from the tender, or don't I? ;-) I'm glad we're done with that. When it comes to the social contract and all it contains, it is ineffectual (of you) to try to gang up on the majority when you are in the minority. But, keep trying; after all, that's how a majority is BUILT! Failing a new majority, there is Legal recourse for those who believe they have been offended. Feeling begrudged, alone, will not change things, except to further deteriorate the state of one's health and one's civility. Or, there may be better countries with better systems for you to move to. It may not be too late/soon! Merle likes Australia, I think. --Joe PS I *do* sometimes listen to US-daytime-AM-talk radio: I find it's good to know what tunes the devil is playing.
