SON OF A GUN!  Instead of attacking law-abiding Americans who are gun owners, the UN should focus on militants from Libya (Benghazi), Syria (WMDs) , Afghanistan (Talibans), Mexico (fast and furious) and then some.

UNITED NATIONS HEALTH SURVEY

A recent "Investor Business Daily" article provided very interesting comparative statistics regarding healthcare.

England      15%
Canada       43%
Percentage referred to a medical specialist who see one within one month:
U.S.           77%
England      40%
Canada       43%
Number of MRI scanners (a prime diagnostic tool) per million people:
U.S.            71
England       14
Canada        18
Percentage of seniors (65+), with low income, who say they are in "excellent health":
U.S.             12%
England        2%

I don't know about you, but I don't want "Universal Healthcare" (aka ObamaCare) comparable to England or Canada.
"Elderly Americans must learn to accept the inconveniences of old age." -- Sen. Harry Reid
SHIP HIM TO CANADA OR ENGLAND !
He is "elderly" himself but be sure to remember his health insurance is different from yours as Congress has their own high-end coverage!  He will never have to learn to accept "inconveniences"!!!
AND THE WINNER IS VERY INTERESTING!
The percentage of each past president's cabinet who had worked in the private business sector prior to their appointment to the cabinet.  You know what the private business sector is... a real life business, not a government job.  Here are the percentages:
T. Roosevelt.................38%
Taft.............................40%
Wilson........................52%
Harding.......................49%
Coolidge.....................48%
Hoover........................42%
F,Roosevelt.................50%
Truman.......................50%
Eisenhower.................57%
Kennedy.....................30%
Johnson......................47%
Nixon..........................53%
Ford...........................42%
Carter.........................32%
Reagan.......................56%
GH Bush....................51%
Clinton........................39%
GW Bush....................55%
And the winner of the Chicken Dinner is:
OBAMA.......................8%
Yep, that's right.  Only 8%, the least by far of the last 19 Presidents.  And these people are trying to tell our big corporations how to run their business?  They know what's best for GM...Chrysler...Wall Street...and you and me?
How can the president of a major nation and society...the one with the most successful economic system in world history...stand and talk about business when he's never worked for one?.. or about jobs when he has never really had one??!  And neither has 92% of his senior staff and closest advisers!  They've spent most of their time in academia, government and/or non-profit jobs...or as "community organizers" when they should have been in an employment line.
