Interesting statistics 

                    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% 

                    I don't know about you, but I don't want "Universal 
Healthcare" comparable to England or Canada . 

                    Moreover, it was Sen. Harry Reid who said, "Elderly 
Americans must learn to accept the inconveniences of old age." 

                    SHIP HIS ASS TO CANADA OR ENGLAND ! 

                    He is "elderly" himself but be sure to remember his 
health insurance is different from yours as Congress has their own high-end 
coverage!  He will never have to learn to accept "inconveniences"!!! 

                    AND THE WINNER IS VERY INTERESTING! 

                    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% 
                    And the winner  of the Chicken Dinner is: 
                    Obama.... 8%!!! 



                    Yep! 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? They know what's best for GM... 
Chrysler... 
Wall Street... and you and me? 

                    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 neither has 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"  when they 
should have been in an employment line.
