    Meh,

    I don't care if people think that our healthcare is the best, or the worst. I live here and it works and works very well. Not perfect, but dumbasses can pick apart anything that they hear about on 'the internet' or Fox news. Well, not dumbasses, but blissfully ignorant.

    Does Canadian law allow for bankruptcies?

    Has no one in Canada ever lost their home?

    I don't know, I'm sincerely asking that question.

    In Canada, if you stop paying your bills, you get off scot-free?

    The most important thing is that doctors are rich. Nothing else matters.

    It's capitalism which means never having to say you're sorry.

    Cow Politics

    DEMOCRAT
    You have two cows.
    Your neighbor has none.

    You feel guilty for being successful.

    You vote people into office that put a tax on your cows, forcing you to sell one to raise money to pay the tax.

    The people you voted for then take the tax money, buy a cow and give it to your neighbor. You feel righteous.

    Barbara Streisand sings for you.

    SOCIALIST
    You have two cows.
    The government takes one and gives it to your neighbor.

    You form a cooperative to tell him how to manage his cow.

    REPUBLICAN
    You have two cows.
    Your neighbor has none.

    So?

    COMMUNIST
    You have two cows.
    The government seizes both and provides you with milk.

    You wait in line for hours to get it.

    It is expensive and sour.

    CAPITALISM, AMERICAN STYLE
    You have two cows.
    You sell one, buy a bull, and build a herd of cows.

    DEMOCRACY, AMERICAN STYLE
    You have two cows.
    The government taxes you to the point you have to sell both to support a man in a foreign country who has only one cow, which was a gift from your government.

    BUREAUCRACY, AMERICAN STYLE
    You have two cows.
    The government takes them both, shoots one, milks the other, pays you for the milk, and then pours the milk down the drain.

    AMERICAN CORPORATION
    You have two cows.
    You sell one, lease it back to yourself and do an IPO on the 2nd one.

    You force the two cows to produce the milk of four cows.

    You are surprised when one cow drops dead.

    You spin an announcement to the analysts stating you have downsized and are reducing expenses.

    Your stock goes up.

    FRENCH CORPORATION
    You have two cows.
    You go on strike because you want three cows.

    You go to lunch.

    Life is good.

    JAPANESE CORPORATION
    You have two cows.
    You redesign them so they are one-tenth the size of an ordinary cow and produce twenty times the milk.

    They learn to travel on unbelievably crowded trains.

    Most are at the top of their class at cow school.

    GERMAN CORPORATION
    You have two cows.
    You engineer them so they are all blond, drink lots of beer, give excellent quality milk, and run a hundred miles an hour. Unfortunately they also demand 13 weeks of vacation per year.

    ITALIAN CORPORATION
    You have two cows but you don't know where they are.
    While ambling around, you see a beautiful woman.

    You break for lunch.

    Life is good.

    RUSSIAN CORPORATION
    You have two cows.
    You have some vodka.

    You count them and learn you have five cows.

    You have some more vodka.

    You count them again and learn you have 42 cows.

    The Mafia shows up and takes over however many cows you really have.

    TALIBAN CORPORATION
    You have all the cows in Afghanistan, which are two.
    You don't milk them because you cannot touch any creature's private parts.

    Then you kill them and claim a US bomb blew them up while they were in the hospital.

    POLISH CORPORATION
    You have two bulls.
    Employees are regularly maimed and killed attempting to milk them.

    FLORIDA CORPORATION
    You have a black cow and a brown cow.
    Everyone votes for the best looking one.

    Some of the people who like the brown one best, vote for the black one.

    Some people vote for both.

    Some people vote for neither.

    Some people can't figure out how to vote at all.

    Finally, a bunch of guys from out-of-state tell you which is the best-looking one.

    NEW YORK CORPORATION
    You have fifteen million cows.
    You have to choose which one will be the leader of the herd, so you pick some fat cow from Arkansas.

    Nathan,

    Yes, if you stop paying your bills they take your igloo away.

    I mean, C'mon friend, what an absurd question.

    The thing that can help you to really understand Canada is think of it like America without Fox News Canada... it's just Fox News up here. And NBC, CBS, BBC, CBC... we vote, we drink, we're assholes, we're nice, and we're no better than the U.S., contrary to popular belief. Except our healthcare. Oh, and our beer is much better too...

    NN. No one loses their home due to illness in Canada. Period. Americans are happy with your system. Canadians and most of Europe is also very happy. That's the freedom to choose. It's got squat to do with winning an arguement. End of the story.

    Perhaps a stroll down the Internets (lol) highway and research "Tommy Douglas". 30 million Canuckleheads can't be wrong.

    As I said, most Liberals have NO sense of humor. Look how seriously they took a few jokes that are obvious to everyone except those who have no sense of humor.

    Libs have no sense of humour. Stewart, Letterman, Colbert, Jimmy Kimmel, Stef Miller, oh my God they are so borrrring!
