Question:

– Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – However … FEED your people, give them medical care, provide them housing and the other essentials of life. What use is freedom if your population is slowly dying before your eyes? Grrrr. That’s just not true I’m insurance less (is that even a word?) and resources are available to me. Thank heavens. My Zyprexa bill is $600 a month and the county picks it up, and I generally don’t qualify for programs. Wonderful, Robert! I am glad for you. What about the people who have no access to such funding? What about the example of an individual on this very newsgroup who waited months for Seroquel … how many people go without?  I know that there are programs for people who cannot pay for medications … do they cover EVERYONE that apply? When my grandfather died, in 1989, he had been in the hospital for several weeks following a series of strokes and heart attacks … the bill to the "estate" was $89,000. Fortunately he had a benefit from AARP that covered terminal hospital stays … what about people without that insurance … they would have been stuck with that bill ~ and a corpse! I am sorry, Robert … you have every right to be a proud citizen ~ just remember that in the grand scheme of things, more people live in poverty around the world, are dying of starvation (24,000 die every day) and of various diseases that make the problems in the United States look small. I am not saying the terrorist attacks were that ~ perish the thought ~ but world opinion is different … look at the demonstrations in Pakistan …. On the other hand, I can say that here in Ottawa there has been a great outpouring of sympathy … the American Embassy has been over-run with flowers and all sorts of gifts of condolence since the attack … we are neighbours, we just don’t necessarily believe that the response should be what is currently going on.

Lighten up Peter, you have always bashed americans and frankly in the grand scheme of things your views are meaningless. I stated what I did earlier to show you that the poorer class people like myself can get care in america. I really don’t understand your fixation to our country.
