\nThe free market system is NOT the problem with everything in this country. Without the free market system and big bussiness, small things that we enjoy everyday would not be possible, of course bussinesses are out to make a profit, theres nothing wrong with that whatsoever. Take a look at what capitalism has done for the stunt riding industry, there are tons of different shops you can call to get all the stunt parts you need, without the free market that just wouldnt exist. One more thing with this health care bill, if our health care is so messed up, why is it that a canadian politician came to the U.S. for health care.

\nA problem with our generation is class envy, "If my neighbor brakes his leg, I will walk better". How has the free market system harmed this country?\r\n

Why compare us to Canada, we\'re supposed to be the greatest so lets compare us to the best, France. Are we really at the point were we compare ourselves to the just OK. To me being the greatest has to do with more than money, sure you can obviously make as much money as you want here and thats good, but the American Dream lies in the middle class and they\'re suffering the most.

\n
\nLet\'s compare the Best with The Greatest. Also France\'s health care isn\'t fully socialized in fact it\'s pretty much what we\'re trying to do.
\n
\nIn a recent World Health Organization health-care ranking, France came in first, while the U.S. scored 37th, slightly better than Cuba and one notch above Slovenia. France\'s infant death rate is 3.9 per 1,000 live births, compared with 7 in the U.S., and average life expectancy is 79.4 years, two years more than in the U.S. The country has far more hospital beds and doctors per capita than America, and far lower rates of death from diabetes and heart disease. The difference in deaths from respiratory disease, an often preventable form of mortality, is particularly striking: 31.2 per 100,000 people in France, vs. 61.5 per 100,000 in the U.S.
\n
\nSome 65% of French citizens express satisfaction with their system, compared with 40% of U.S. residents. And France spends just 10.7% of its gross domestic product on health care, while the U.S. lays out 16%, more than any other nation.
\n
\nIn France, the sicker you get, the less you pay. Chronic diseases, such as diabetes, and critical surgeries, such as a coronary bypass, are reimbursed at 100%. Cancer patients are treated free of charge. Patients suffering from colon cancer, for instance, can receive Genentech Inc.\'s (DNA ) Avastin without charge. In the U.S., a patient may pay $48,000 a year.\r\n
