This is not a rank of money...It is overall quality

Last Edited by bobnightman on 03/16/2010 01:11 PM

No, you suck because you are looking at expenditures, not actual quality of care, so go fuck yourself, Bob, you communist rat.

37? In a row?

Personally, I am glad Bobbie put this failranking up... now he and all his failtard friends know where to move after Obammycare gets shot down and the socialists voted out of office in November.

Good jobby, Bobby.

No you are wrong

No it shows we pay a shit load of money to take care of illegal immigrants, and medicade/care, and ppl who choose not to have insurance. Not to mention paying out the ass for countless tests so docs can cover their ass in case of law suits.

But let this crap pass and we will still be paying the same if not more, the same illegal immigrants will continue to get free care the liberals admit millions more still wont be covered, and doctors will still have to order every test imaginable to cover their ass, except for when the bureaucrats tell them not to they wont cover it.

Oh and the same 100's of thousands that the libs say are dropping dead now will continue to drop dead for the next 4 yrs with no coverage.

And the average guy who like his coverage will pay for his, and pay a tax to cover welfare, and pay for the illegal too, nothing like paying 3 times.

This is the ranking of health care systems according to the World Health Organization (2000).[1]

The number on the left is rank...Number on right is expenditure so both are listed

We pay the most of any country to get a rank of #37

The World Health Organization agitates for government-guaranteed medical care. If a country doesn't have it, that country is ranked low.

This is just anti-US propaganda. The WHO is a globalist organization. There is no way that the US would ever be ranked near the top because we don't have socialized medicine. The Canadian Premier recently came to the US to have heart surgery. Why would he do that? His country is ranked higher than ours.

And look at this, from the UK: [link to www.telegraph.co.uk]

The only place we have seen anything like this in the US was at Walter Reed, which is run by the government. This is why people don't want government run health care.

So OP supports the World Health Organization and their socialist agenda and believes their every word.

They are the main ones pushing H1N1 vaccines to profit Big Pharma over a totally FAKE epidemic.

So natutrally Bobby supports them on this bogus socialized assessment of health care as well.

OP, you DID get your vaccine as instructed by WHO who also claim the right to seize control during health emergencies, right?

And the seasonal flu shot and the pneumonia shot, all as instructed by this organization you are promoting? Because to do otherwise would be totally hypocritic, wouldn't it?

WHO is bought and owned by Big Pharma who also supports this universal healthcare crap so they can get 30 million new patients and they already got $80 billion to sponsor ads in this country. They are looking forward to total coverage for all those illegals!

Just like Bobby.


So tell me again why Canadian Officials come to the USA for their surgery so often? Because we are worse than Chile?

I don't think so and neither does anybody else with a brain. Maybe you should lay off the cheap booze.

"The World Health Report says the main failings of many health systems are:

- Many health ministries focus on the public sector and often disregard the frequently much larger private sector health care.

- In many countries, some if not most physicians work simultaneously for the public sector and in private practice. This means the public sector ends up subsidizing unofficial private practice.

- Many governments fail to prevent a "black market" in health, where widespread corruption, bribery, "moonlighting" and other illegal practices flourish. The black markets, which themselves are caused by malfunctioning health systems, and low income of health workers, further undermine those systems.

- Many health ministries fail to enforce regulations that they themselves have created or are supposed to implement in the public interest. "

My dad has Vet care he loves it...It is better than my Aetna

I got no vaccines and wont

Expenditure Per Capita is money spent not quality of care dambass keep drinking your beer and go back to sleep

Yeah, we should have used some of that money to bribe the socialist organization WHO doing the ranking.

Go to the National Hospital. Then go to the top floor where all the suits are for the foreign dignitaries who come to this country for treatment. Little suites reserved mostly for them.

Why would those Saudi princes come here for their heart and other care?

Hint for the dense: It's not because we are 37th in anything.

Guess which country used to have one of the best health care systems in the world and would have been near the top of that list if it had'nt been for the west.

[link to vcnv.org]

But you are claiming that the word of WHO is the gospel on this ranking. And that same organization told you flatly to get that vaccine.

You can't have it both ways. Either WHO is truthful or they are not.

And they told you to get that vaccine! It's not too late. And you can bet if Obama Deathcare passes, you will get it! You will no longer have any say about things like that.

You will get it or lose your insurance and if you don't have insurance, you know what will happen then.

But meanwhile, you must obey WHO if you are going to demand that others believe their socialist ranking system.

Ever see one of those videos of them removing an eyeball or chopping off a hand as a part of their judicial system sentencing?

I guess the west made them do that? No, was their fearless leader. Creative use of doctors, I guess you could say.

And the Kurds might disagree with you, but whatever.

WHO is in the pocket of Big Pharma and everybody knows that. Thence their recent demand that the WHOLE WORLD be vaccinated for a non-existent flu epidemic.

I don't have any respect at all for them or their ranking system because I simply know better. So do most people.

Last I looked this is 2010, this report was produced in 2000 based off of 1998 data ... HMMM

>>Gee willikers... the socialist father of a full fledged communist likes socialized medicine... whowoulddathunkit????

Yeah I 'm sure we might have moved up to 36 by now

>>Any port in a storm, comrade.

No, I am not wrong. Like most progressive rat fucktards, you are twisting facts and statistics to "prove" something that doesnt exist. You are seriously insane.

>>And most of those 'statistics' were created SPECIFICALLY to answer whatever question is at hand at the moment.

Any port in a storm, comrade.

Obama wants us to spend an additional trillion or so, for worse care.

Another index used to measure the health of a population is the infant mortality rates. Here, the USA is just about as bad.

Wake up, people! Your opposition to the public option and health care reform in general was engineered and underwritten by the insurance companies and big pharma. Corporate profit interests should have no place in health care, and they are still running the show on Capitol Hill. We are in this crisis because of deregulation. We let the corporations determine our health care.... and they want us sick, as health means less profit.

For all of the affluence in this country, access to good quality healthcare pretty much sucks, unless you have insurance and $$$ -- only THEN do you receive quality care. Our infant mortality and <5 yo mortality rates are EMBARASSING.

The infant mortality rate (IMR) is the number of deaths of infants under one year old per 1,000 live births. This rate is often used as an indicator of the level of health in a country. The infant mortality rate of the world is 49.4 according to the United Nations and 42.09 according to the CIA World Factbook. The under-five mortality rate of the world is 73.7 according to the United Nations.

Infant mortality rate counts dead babies and dead kids. Coroner counts. hard facts.
Nothing statistically massaged, just a grim reminder of where we stand in the world.
