Fall Of The West Reason 5886886677

What I find interesting is that anecdotes are not accepted to prove whether the ACA is failing, but it's okay to use them in the context of Greece's welfare state.

Naturally.

This is amusing.

“The operation alone is 12,000 euros ($16,200),” he said. “We just don’t have it. It’s funny. I saw President Obama on television the other day, talking about how the United States, a country known for being cold to its citizens, was trying to help the uninsured. Here, we have the opposite. The state used to take care of you. But if you are sick in Greece now, you have an expiration date.”

They say Europeans are wiser and more educated.

So much for that. They're no more susceptible to tripe perceptions of America than Canadians are.

Since Europe is known to be warmer (note, not cold) to its citizens, where has the enormous costs that come with it gotten them? Not only that, they had the benefit of having the United States protect them in the post-WWII/Cold War era, thus precluding them from having to spend too much on their national armies spending just enough to keep them operational.

Yet, they're still bankrupt? If that's not sufficient evidence about the burdens of running an unsustainable generous welfare apparatus, I don't know what it is.

You know. It's ironic that a civilization that gave us rational thought and great mathematics are failing to grasp it.
