  1. Re:Poor Americans, .. again on Health Insurance for the Self-Employed? · · Score: 1

    Europe, glorious old lady that she is has long ago implemented the National healthcare to make sure that
    A; Everyone has access to proper healthcare.
    B; Everyone automatically pays into the healthcare fund so it can be maintained
    C; Good quality in healthcare is guaranteed by state checkups.


    Are you kidding? In what country are you living? Certainly not France. We have, despite all the money that is thrown into our "public" healthcare system, ridiculously low reimbursements, waiting lists (even with the private sector because of the numerus clausus), crappy hospitals, and so on.

    In fact, some French people are trying to escape from our Social Security, and subscribe to competing private insurance firms.

    French TV routinely has debates about philosophy. Ask a frenchman/woman who their favourite philosopher is - they'll probably have one and be able to debate merits of others.
    I'm French and I can tell you that it's totally untrue. Most people here don't even know what philosophy really is.

    Running Windows is a bigger security issue, so why bother ;-) ?
