It is better to get a bill passed, and make adjustments to continuously optimize it according to what actually happens, then to spend the next decade in a debate that is partially fueled by political posturing, ideology and fear. The status quo is much worse. Sometimes it’s better to jump off the burning platform even if the ocean is cold and shark-infested. Why? Because a definite disaster is less preferred then a potential one.

You’re wrong about the diversity issue. About 10 years ago the United Nations listed Toronto as the world’s most culturally diverse city. I’m not certain where it is now. Immigration to Europe has created a lot of diversity.
Have you traveled? Your idea that the U.S. is the most diverse goes along with the idea that the U.S. is #1 at everything. Travel would help you to understand that although the U.S. has many things to be proud of they are not always number one.

Cavejourney, I’m not sure there is any nation in the world as diverse as the USA. But I don’t really think that’s the issue. I think you’re right about the lack of education. Plus the media does a terrible job at cutting through the bull for people. But yes, Canada does it well.

i meant large population wise, not geographically. if you look at American politics right now, you see how its impossible to get most anything done.
And I agree with you, greed and lack of education has a big part to deal with it also

astrolabe1976 – I respectfully don’t buy that – Canada is geographically larger than the U.S. and most western nations are equally diverse. I think what is holding back the U.S. is the greed and lack of education.

I don’t see why it’s so difficult to change your health care. Lots of other countries have done it. Just pick one and copy it.
