The study by the WHO was done in 2000. It was the FIRST study done by that organization. So you are just emoting again.
If you think the study isn't valid you shouldn't have posted it to defend your argument.
I took it at face value as it actually sounded about right and wasn't much different than a lot of such statistics I've seen.
I haven't been emoting at all. I am simply of the conviction that the federal government should not be doing that which can be done more efficiently, effectively, and economically at more local levels or by the private sector. The Federal government should not be doing healthcare.
Hello??? The study is valid. What has no validity is YOUR claim that America used to be number one in these categories. You offer no proof, just opinion. I merely pointed out that this was the first time the WHO did this study.
You ARE emoting, because NOTHING you have argued holds up to the FACTS. You are parroting right wing dogma and ideology that we MUST cling to the failed Wall Street controlled 'for profit' health care system that puts America at the bottom of the list of all industrialized countries. It is handicapping all our industries in the marketplace and is literally KILLING America citizens who are dying from preventable diseases that are not being diagnosed and treated.
Again you emote about efficiency. The reason insurance cartels spent millions of dollars to kill a public option, is because they know they can't compete. Private 'for profit' insurance corporations have administrative expenses around 30%, Medicare has an administrative expense around 3%.
You really need to educate yourself to the FACTS. The only thing you've proven on this thread is the depth and scope of your ignorance.
Source time?
