I agree that our system can be improved, as I have stated repeatedly. I don't think this bill will do it though. Last edited by goof2; 12-08-2009 at 09:41 AM.. Reason: Fix quote |

Like you, I have no basis for this number. It just sounded right. Half the population is under 20, over 65, or unemployed. I doubt they all have the same views on health care. I also doubt many of them are "illegal Mexicans". Why would anyone pretend to be a Mexican? It makes no sense. The reason it makes no sense, is that there are roughly 20 million illegal aliens in the US. There are 308 million people in the US (more or less). Do the math. With or without illegal aliens, our system still needs improvement. We might as well just blame the Jews. It works great, and it's been a while. JC

I wish I had the spare time to write legislation. I know you put the challenge out a while ago... I remember seeing it in another thread about healthcare. The tough part is introducing something that is looking out for the village when the village doesn't know what it wants. It's all really based on a lot of "what-if's" which is what insurance has always banked on. Goof - sorry I didn't do a direct quote over what I paraphrased... sorry if I should believe a forum instead.

But we do have a huge population of Immigrants from other nations, as well as a large population of Natives that do not work. Comparing population is useless. You also have 10 times the number of tax payers contributing to the system.

"There is no credible information available on illegal immigration in Canada. Estimates range between 35,000 and 120,000 illegal immigrants in Canada.[13] " ~34 mil people, 120,000 illegals ~308 mil, 20mil illegals(according to JC)........ wonder how your system would hold up?

Or they become "refugee claimants." An ex-girlfriend of mine, years back, used to hate working the Air India planes at the Toronto airport because the toilets would frequently be clogged with burnt passports.
