The American Health care debate begins..........

We always hear that Americans are living longer that ever .However, they are not living as long as people in 41 other countries.People are living longer in Japan, Europe, Jordon, Guam, and the Cayman Island. Some people here can live to an average of 77 years while in countries in Europe people can live up; to 83 years.Infant death is more likely in the United States than in Europe or Japan. Out of 222 countries surveyed the UNITED STATES rank 181. In Health Care Performance the U.S. ranks behind Europe and the United Kingdom including Canada, Britain, Australia.Yet the Republican Conservatives will tell us that we have "the greatest health care system in the world" just listen to Rush or Hannity on these issues.
Americans have the highest cost of Heath care in the free world.Health care in America is big business. Drug companies, Health Care Providers, Insurance companies are the only highly profitable businesses in the country.Health care in American Capitalism is a very profitable business while heath care is a service in other countries. So are we going to believe Sean Hannity or the truth of our HEALTH CARE SYSTEM? Something has to be done to improve the availability of quality Health care for Americans.
