Are Americans The DUMBEST On Planet Earth???

[michael_ital]

witness the current discourse on Healthcare!

Idiots!!

[Shirib]

So dumb that they're the most powerful country on earth, what does that say about all the other countries?

[michael_ital]

Sorry, Einstein, but I fail to see the connection between failure on many military fronts, and 50 million Americans withOUT healthcare.

[Ghazi]

Employing universal healthcare is a terrible idea.

Show me one nation in the world with a population close to that of the US that functions as a welfare state. It is not possible.

You're right, it isn't. But they aren't proposing that. They simply want to create the OPTION for people, as we have in Canada. You can opt for the provincial system (OHIP, in my case), or choose your own private health care provider. Either through one of your own, or through your employer. Either way, we have a choice. And THAT is what Obama is turning blue in the face trying to explain. But the average Yanks i.q is too f-king low to grasp it.

What is this? And what is the source?

[Voltage]

I think it is ridiculous the way misinformation is allowed to run free in the U.S. There should be laws about that and hopefully Glen Beck and Sean Hannity can be silenced. No one does more to stoke those people than these two brainless i.diots who have never went to college.

[Ghazi]

What is that, and what is the source?

The highlights of the health care document. Just some of the most important information.

Just the Republicans!

Bush and crew destroyed the notion that the "conservative" party is fiscally responsible. The party''s current arguments sound like Arabman arguing OBL and 9/11.

Mickey,

Sadly, if you were to knock the fock out of these rabble rousers, they wouldn't be admitted into the ER room for lack of insurance.
