Very interesting Stats

Very interesting Stats
 
There are actually two messages here. The 1st is very
interesting, but the 2nd is absolutely astounding - and explains a lot.
A recent "Investor's Business Daily" article provided very
interesting statistics from a survey by the United Nations International
Health Organization.
Percentage of men and women who survived a cancer five years
after diagnosis:
U.S. 65%
England 46%
Canada 42%
Percentage of patients diagnosed with diabetes who received
treatment within six months:
U.S. 93%
England 15%
Canada 43%
Percentage of seniors needing hip replacement who received it
within six months:
U.S. 90%
England 15%
Canada 43%
Percentage referred to a medical specialist who see one within
one month:
U.S. 77%
England 40%
Canada 43%
Number of MRI scanners (a prime diagnostic tool) per million
people:
U.S. 71
England 14
Canada 18
Percentage of seniors (65+), with low income, who say they are
in "excellent health":
U.S. 12%
England 2%
Canada 6%
And now for the last statistic:
 
National Health Insurance?
U.S. NO
England YES
Canada YES
Check this last set of statistics!!
The percentage of each past president's cabinet who had worked
in the private business sector prior to their appointment to the cabinet.
You know what the private business sector is.a real-life business, not a
government job. Here are the percentages.
T. Roosevelt................... 38%
Taft................................... 40%
Wilson .............................. 52%
Harding........................... 49%
Coolidge........................ 48%
Hoover............................. 42%
F. Roosevelt................... 50%
Truman........................... 50%
Eisenhower.................... 57%
Kennedy......................... 30%
Johnson......................... 47%
Nixon.............................. 53%
Ford.................................. 42%
Carter............................... 32%
Reagan........................... 56%
GH Bush........................ 51%
Clinton ............................. 39%
GW Bush........................ 55%
Obama.................... 8%
This helps to explain the incompetence of this administration:
only 8% of them have ever worked in private business!
That's right! Only eight percent---the least, by far, of the
last 19 presidents! And these people are trying to tell our big
corporations how to run their business?
How can the president of a major nation and society, the one
with the most successful economic system in world history, stand and talk
about business when he's never worked for one? Or about jobs when he has
never really had one? And when it's the same for 92% of his senior staff
and closest advisers? They've spent most of their time in academia,
government and/or non-profit jobs or as "community organizers." They should
have been in an employment line.
Pass this on because we'll NEVER see these facts in the main
stream media.

Cancer Stats are obviously bogus.........survival rates are still less than 50% when you have to count the whole population not just the insured and employed. Must have been an insurance company lobbyist or a banker who provided the UN these numbers. They are the most mathematically challenged Americans outside of politicians these days.(Oops forgot the UN is a bunch of politicians) Notice the biggest ad on this page.....insurance for healthcare hmmmm.Pass this on because we'll NEVER see these facts in the main stream media. (Is this writer joking, only pass these medical stats on if you want to look like a fool) Bush's left an impossible mess to clean-up - even Hilary couldn't have saved us from the train wreck Poppa & Son Bush and their banker/wall street/political buddies created by not implementing proper oversight after the S & L nightmare. But why should they, they made a fortune from this mess and now every foreseeable American generation will pay. Sure would like to see somebody indicted and have to pay restitution....maybe then every American could have healthcare.
