Are you more worried about the 4 burned flags or the 50 million Americans who can't see a doctor?

Should it? Yes, it should.

Should Americans be more involved in politics to compel the legislature to create policy to provide health services within our borders equal to or better than the service Canada provides to its citizens and a growing number of US citizens?

i definitely would rather see people get the medical help they need!

Educate yourself on the perils and pitfalls of Canada's health care system before your ignorance raisies it's ugly head.

the taxes there are super high that's why they can afford it. The pay like 14% to our 8.5 %... But you're right... it's despicable how the drug companies and insurance companies are making billions of dollars! I'd like to burn one of them down! j/k

I could give a crap less about flag burning, it's a SYMBOL. Now if they burned the original by Betsy Ross I'd get worked up.

What we need to do is look after all americans & treat them equally( democracy )and we should do this by cutting a small portion of the defence annual budget,which might in return help americans not others.

Every tax payer should be able to see the doctor if they have
pitched into those programs that give assistance in time of need.

Flags? What are you talking about. Who cares about flags? It's like bras, who really cares if they burn?

the people that could not see a doc.

Canada's like America...only without the guns, crime, and other hangups.

obvious the 50 million Americans who can't see a doctor.

but.... I'm not in Congress, so my opinion doesn't count.

Man you are soo right. All we need to do is cut 59 Billion from the 459 Billion spend annually on defense and we could actually do something for the people of this nation.

Fan-freakin-tastic question!
Who gives a crap about the flag? It's fabric!
Stop wasting the time and tax dollars of the citizens, legislators! How about we accomplish something that actually matters?!

Definately! The way it is now, if you are a "minority" and break the law, you are rewarded for it with free everything you can think of....

However, if you work all your life, pay taxes, promote your skill to the community, turn 65, and decide to retire--- then you have a heart attack, your found uneligible for medical care, and the government comes after you along with 300,000 collection agencies and takes your car, your house, all the assets you've worked your entire life to own...

Likewise, I'm 25.. I can't work legally, can't gain any benefits, and due to sensitive information, I'm not allowed to vote either.

Nor am I allowed any care what-so-ever besides that of the veterans affairs. My convoy was ambushed by numerous small arms fire and IED's, and my truck was targeted by an RPG... I was saved fortunately, however now a days, I can't even draw unemployment legally until my claims are completed-- which it's been nearly 3 and 1/2 years since....

But you know what? If I was an illegal, I'd be granted anything and everything!

And even if I wasn't... I'd scream RACISM!!! and... EQUAL OPPORTUNITY!!!!

Notice how we have the money to go to war with every country on the planet, yet we can't even help our own citizens... Hmm....... yeah...

......................................... This country has been raped...and is in the process of being murdered!!

If medical care in Canada is so great why do they keep coming to USA for care. It is because it takes forever to see a Dr. in Canada. Those 50 million could see a doc. they did have insurance these are not the same things. Comparing flag burning to the uninsured is like comparing apples and oranges these are just not in the same category.

i would not brag on canada too much,because they seem to be growing terrorists cells there.

Excellent question. But its not a question of ability, amigo.

The U.S. IS able to provide basic health care to all citizens--and its in our collective best interests because a large percentage of the system is weighed down by people who live unhealthy lives and have to get frequent medical care instead of work for a living.

The issue is whether or not we have the political will to pay for preventative health care as opposed to catastrophic care.

That would cost a lot and Congress doesn't have the will to make it happen.

40 of the 50 million people who can't see a doctor are more concerned about flag burning. When will those hicks realize they should just stay in their trailors on election day and let the democrats run things.
