Some of us are more fortunate than others

John Cena, It's good you have a friend from the Philippines. I am from the Philippines too. The conditions there is not the greatest. Do you know what happens when one gets sick and goes to the hospital for treatment? The doctor gives the patient and the family a prescription for intravenous fluids, antibiotics, pain medicines or whatever the patient needs. If this particular patient does not have the money to buy these prescribed drugs, then they might as well go home because the hospital does not provide any of these. Here in the U.S., nobody is denied medical care. I know this for a fact because I'm an RN in the hospital and I have worked here in the States since 1980. Most of the people admitted are mostly Medicaid patients. The reason why I'm opposed to this Obama Care is that people will abuse the system, will go to the Emergency Room even if they just have common colds. There will be more shortage of Nurses and Doctors and these patients will have to wait at least for 6 hours in order to be seen by the doctor. This is bad for our country. People don't understand this. I beg to differ. The Democrats are the ones causing more problems. The Republicans are more sensible and more realistic. It's Obama, Pelosi , Harry Reid and his cronies creating problems here.

I love the Phillipines. Been there several times. Love the people and the country. Yes, we're fortunate. I'm sick and disabled, and live in pretty awful poverty. But even so, my quality of life, in some ways, is far better than people in other parts of the world. And I have friends from all over the world. In other ways, perhaps we've lost some other qualities of life due to the complexity of our society and the problems that causes. I know that in many places of the world I've been, the people are far warmer and more hospitable, far friendlier than in the US. I lived in Japan for a few years when I worked for Toho, and I loved it there. Were I rich, I might move back there. I'd have to be rich, though, because it's a horrendously expensive country to live in. Far worse than the US. I appreciate the US, though there are times when politicians, both dem and repub make me ashamed to be an American.

let me ask you this -- if you had never seen an airplane , would you know that man can fly ? we are fortunate to live here and now . if you in your liberal thinking alow others of the surplus population to grow you have nothing more than an increase of stress upon the world as a whole after all the natural resources of earth are finite and they take millenia to regenerate. I am afraid that we are very close to oblivion right now because of our want and waste.
