When they tell you that we should copy the UK's health-care system, recount the horrifying facts And the next time an idiot tells you that vegetable prices will skyrocket without illegal workers, stop saying "no, they won't" "actually, eliminating all illegal labor will cause us to spend just $8 a year more on produce."
Idiots can't be identified through voting records, they can be found only by looking for people who hide behind stereotypes, embrace partisanship, and believe that bumper sticker slogans are a substitute for common sense. BRITISH Handgun crime 'up' despite ban A new study suggests the use of handguns in crime rose by 40% in the two years after the weapons were banned.
The research, commissioned by the Countryside Alliance's Campaign for Shooting, has concluded that existing laws are targeting legitimate users of firearms rather than criminals.
The ban on ownership of handguns was introduced in 1997 as a result of the Dunblane massacre, when Thomas Hamilton opened fire at a primary school leaving 16 children and their teacher dead. HORRORS of BRITISH HEALTHCARE;
Member of European Parliament Daniel Hannan warned Americans of the dangers of government-run healthcare.
Hannan, a Conservative who represents Southeast England in the European Parliament, said of the British National Health Service (NHS), “The most striking thing about it is that you are very often sent to the back of the queue.”
Beck noted the lengthy waiting times for care under Britain’s socialist National Health Service (NHS). These figures were provided by the BBC on May 27, 2009:
*cataract surgery – 8 months *hip replacement – 11 months *knee replacement – 12 months *slipped disc – 5 months *hernia repair – 5 months
Although to be fair, Hannan said, the NHS provides “not so bad” care with children but “the worst thing to be is elderly under a system like ours.” Said Hannan:
I could tell you horror stories about elderly people left starving in wards, and the amazing thing is, why do we put up with it? The reason we put up with it for so long is because it has become such a huge system. It’s got such an enormous bureaucracy based around it. We have 1.4 million people employed by the National Health Service.
