The reason why socialised medicine fails is because all the money is spent on making sure everyone has free healthcare, it forgets about someone who really needs advanced medical aid. In those areas it fails. For instance if someone is really in need of some seious medical aid in canada, they seem to come to America. Why? Because we can treat them, while they are put on a never ending list of waiting at canada. You can not tell me that someone who needs aid immediately can not get it. It is a law in this country that if you go into an emergency room, you are to be given aid no matter your race, financial status, or where you're from. It is also against the law to ask for such information.So to think you'll never get aid if you really need it is a lie.
On the debate I think Cheney won solid. Edwards seemed like a bubbling toy who repeats "kerry" "kerry" "KERRY" through out his responses. Even on the questions where it was specified not to use your running mates name, he coudln't stop spitting out Kerry's name. He came off as way to cocky, and way to repetitive. When Cheney was confronted with a question he, again in my opinion, put down a very definitive answer. For instance a question about bussinesses, Cheney listed all the things needed to make it run well. He had the expereince and knoledge before hand and presented his opinions in a very clean and unquestionable way. Where as I found that Edwards found more glee in putting out pot shots at the other canidate than he did answering and fullfilling the question.
Who's not being candid?
