Subject: Very interesting statistics!!!!!

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

Percentage of seniors (65+), with low income, who say they are in "excellent health":

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."
