Interesting Statistics

[Jaybird]

There are actually two messages here. The first is very
interesting, but the second is absolutely astounding - and explains a lot.

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%


And now for the last statistic:


National Health Insurance?

U.S. NO

England YES

Canada YES

Check this last set of statistics!!

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%

Obama.................... 8%


This helps to explain the incompetence of this administration:
only 8% of them have ever worked in private business!

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?

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 when it's the same for 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." They should
have been in an employment line.

Pass this on because we'll NEVER see these facts in the main
stream media.

If true that is something to really look at.

I couldn't find anything to confirm it as true or false, but I none the less passed it on.

Where is Imaposer? lol

[Nervous Wreck]

National Health Insurance?

U.S. NO

England YES

Canada YES


BINGO!

[Nervous Wreck]

Obama.................... 8%

Makes ya wonder where all his money came from and how he could even run for president?

It's like he just materialized out of the 'dirt'!

[imaposer]

Where is Imaposer? lol

I only took the time to do a check of that last fact....


BS

By a huge margin.

AEI’s claim that the cabinet lacks private sector experience is astoundingly in error, with 77% of the 22 members showing private sector experience — according to the bizarre chart, putting Obama’s cabinet in the premiere levels of private sector experience. The chart looks more and more like a hoax that AEI fell sucker to — and so did others

Wow! Thanks! I was at work and blew all my time finding collapsed bridges for a thread that would later disappear. lol (ps and I am very sorry if I helped to cause the collapse of that thread as I did not intend to)

[Fall Creek]

I would say that Imaposer is correct, based on the following article. I suppose it depends on the extent of what is considered private sector business experience, who is writing the report and which way to slant it. Typical politics.
