The Canadian health system and its problems

The U.S. government spent 783 billion U.S. dollars in 2006, Medicare and Medicaid. But if universal health care in this country, it would probably go well over a trillion dollars. And taxes will probably increase. Americans want affordable healthcare or a universal system of health care. This is a great debate during the presidential election. But did you know that the American system of free markets, development of new drugs and techniques generated because the system offersIncentives for innovation and efficiency? Note that in the context of our current health care system, you can go to the doctor every time you want to know, no tail? Well, this is not the case in Canada. Here are some criticisms of health care:

57% of Canadians reported waiting 4 weeks or more of a specialist, 24% of Canadians waited 4 hours or more in the emergency room.

A March 2, 2004 article in the Canadian Medical Association Journal noted, was "under SaskatchewanFire with the longest waiting times in the country for a diagnostic MRI - a huge 22 months. "

A February 28, 2006 article in The New York Times quoted Dr. Brian Day as saying: "This is a country where dogs can be a hip replacement in less than a week, where people wait two or three years can get. "

Canada shortage of doctors is causing problems. At 2.2 doctors per thousand population, Canada is well below the OECD average of 3.0, although the 10 nursingRante slightly above the OECD average of 8.6. The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) is an international organization of thirty countries that accept the principles of representative democracy and free market economy.

Doctors in Italy are an average of $ 202,000 per year (2006), before expenses. Alberta has the highest average salary of about 230,000 $, while Quebec has the lowest average annual salary of 165,000 $, the creation of inter-provincial competition forDoctors and contribute to the lack of premises.

In 1991, the Ontario Medical Association agreed to a province-wide closed shop, that the Union OMA a monopoly. Critics argue that this measure is limited supply of doctors to guarantee the income of their members.

According to an article of 2007, the Canadian medical profession is suffering from a brain drain. The article states: "One in nine doctors trained in Canada is the practice of medicine in the United States. If the Canadian educatedDoctors who are excluded Born in the USA, is the number one in 12.

A February 28, 2006 article in The New York Times stated, "accepting money from patients for operations that are otherwise receive free in a public hospital is technically prohibited in this country, even in cases where patients would wait months or also take years of treatment ... Canada is the only industrialized country that prohibits the purchase of privately funded practitionersServices. "

In 2006, a Canadian judge has threatened to close a private hospital because he had planned from the beginning to accept private payments from patients. According to The New York Times, clinics, even if privately funded are illegal in Italy, many clinics are opening in every case, because patients do not like long waiting lists in the system of government.

In an interview in 2007, ABC News, Professor Regina Herzlinger from Harvard Business School, said: "Many hospitals across Canadaillegal for profit ... They know that they do not need medical care, legal system, so that in creating an illegal system that gives them what they need to be accomplices. "

It seems that they still have a lot of work. If you live in Canada and read this article would let me know if something has changed or become better, I love the feedback.

Weapon HAARP and earthquakes Revealed Haiti Assignment 3 of 3 ... Weapon of Mass Destruction

Nikola Tesla's Death Ray is an evil spirit-control machine called HAARP and earthquakes, which caused many to believe that the 7.0 earthquake in Haiti, which more than 250,000 men, women and children killed.

People are dying of hunger and illness, while the American forces to Haiti to ensure its military agenda. Never in my wildestDreams I would have thought that the country where I was born and raised would be a launching pad for Armageddon lunch. America is really high, and the devil and I say, jacked world ... There are still good people left in America. Do not judge us or hate us for the bad actions of the demons that have jacked the high expectations of our government and brainwash the American people.

5 ways on how the victims of poverty in Africa Aid

Many people think that they are not able to help victims of poverty. I firmly believe that anyone can submit a hand, and need not always be through the offer of money. Let me briefly about how to help victims of poverty in Africa.

Food

Food is a basic need for all peoples. Food has changed in the continent, because the decline in the production of food shortages, the result of several factors. Drought, famine, lack of resources, are deadone factor that food is scarce. Increasingly, African countries depend on hand-out to feed its population and people are dying of hunger. Assistance in the form of food can make a big difference.

Health

Health care is another option, the victims of poverty in Africa to help. Almost every house has been limited, or lack of adequate access to medical care on the continent (worldhealth.org United Nations are affected). The reality is that Africans are called into question when it comes to health,in addition to their faith in their traditional medicines. Some have died for the lack of health care, has caused some illnesses such as AIDS, are manageable, but people who die sooner than they should.

Shelter

There is a growing number of homeless on the continent that can not be ignored. Almost every city has people living there, sleep in pipes, etc. These people were of different reasons, but the common denominator is that all of them are displacedhomeless.

Education

I firmly believe that a pause is the way to fight poverty and the chain of poverty through education. If a family member affected by poverty, access to education, it is believed, would he / she earn income and to look after his siblings as dependents of their life would not be the same. Various reasons, to adopt African children in education and need a lot to change their lives.

Viable projects

This is my last pointabout how to help victims, poverty in Africa.

Can always be difficult to make a donation to the people, but also when they try to leave their situations of poverty, will move a smaller load. In some parts of the continent, people just need corn flour, but will be able to nourish their life by growing vegetables yourself and sell the surplus. E 'encouraging to see people trying to help themselves as solely relying on the hands out. Assistance for Africans themselves start their conservation projectsespecially in food production is one way, it could help fight poverty in Africa and Africans, even help themselves. You may suffer poverty and hunger, but they were the workers.

As Mahatma Gandhi Independence of Kashmir deadlock

MK Gandhi, pioneer and perfector of Satyagraha - the resistance of tyranny through mass civil disobedience, has a very dark role in the politics of Kashmir. He has succeeded in preventing the Maharaja of Kashmir to declare independence and thus paved the way for an offensive accession of Kashmir.

The events of the summer of 1947 showed some amazing facts about Gandhi and his role in the ongoing conflict in Kashmir, a conflict that has the potential of a sparkNuclear war between India and Pakistan.

Hari Singh, the Maharaja (King) of Kashmir, the Indian National Congress hated and India and Pakistan wanted to remain independent. He asked for a standstill agreement by India and Pakistan, in order to be objective to pursue an independent Kashmir. Pakistan, but India does not have the suspension agreement, which is a reference to designs of India on Kashmir.

Nehru fully aware that such facts would be able to visit Kashmirunder pressure, the Maharaja to accede to India. Nehru said he wanted to go to Kashmir, the release of Sheikh Abdullah, who was placed under arrest by the Maharaja obtained. However, Joseph Korbel is intended question for us:

But one wonders if Nehru was interested in personal wellness Abdullah - free of political implications - at a time when cooked to the subcontinent with disdain and thousands of people have been killed.

Josef Korbel, Danger in Kashmir, p.60

Lord Mountbatten, Viceroy of India, Nehru did not approve the visit and offered to go himself. Kashmir has visited June 18, 1947, and remained there for four days. Lord Mountbatten was not a real discussion with the Maharaja, as the Maharaja would not be influenced, and discuss the fate of his country and people. It is remarkable that the Dogra king, whose reign was one of the most cruel, not to accept India immediately on the basis of his religion, but attempts toremain independent. This was an attempt to return something good for his people? or its intentions were purely selfish?

Lord Mountbatten was the visit by the visit of Mr. Hastings Ismay, Chief of Staff, Lord Mountbatten was followed. Both proved to be a complete failure as regards the granting of a security by the Maharaja, that he did not declare independence. This shook Nehru and later he went to visit Kashmir. Sardar Patel strongly disapproved of this visit, but the NehruInsistence, agreed to let Gandhi to visit Kashmir, who believe that "lesser evil". Gandhi's distrust was already on the rise among Muslims in India.

As Campbell Johnson found:

Both Nehru and Gandhi were very concerned that the Maharaja of Kashmir should make no declaration of independence.

Campbell Johnson, Mission with Mountbatten, p. 117

To eliminate this fear Gandhi visited Kashmir by the end of July 1947. The windows of his car wereIn Baramullah, routes, where an angry mob protesting his visit. However, he was to go ahead and get a cure for his and Nehru's anxiety: a guarantee for the accession of the Maharaja in India.

The Times, London, said:

"... But the Indian Union was here a keen interest in this issue and highlights the fact that the Hindu Maharaja of Kashmir, Sir Hari Singh, recently made a lot of representations was influenced by Gandhi, who visits Kashmir three months ago and otherThe leaders of Congress. "

The Times, London, October 25, 1947

What did Gandhi say that the Maharaja? We will never know, but the chain of events that followed his visit is an indicator of what must have happened. After the visit of Prime Minister of Kashmir, Ram Chandar Kak, who had no desire to India has been replaced by Janak Singh, then India's Chand Mahajan by Republicans. British officials in Kashmir, the army and police have been dismissed and the InspectorInspector General of Police and Chief of General Staff. Contracts for the construction of a bridge over the River Ravi, near Pathankot, so that the connection between India and Jammu and Kashmir have been released. The road between Jammu and Kathua has been improved and built a telegraph line between Jammu and the valley. All this was possible because of support from India.

Gandhi has the cure for his anxiety, but the people of Kashmir have suffered from anxiety since. Gandhi, the manThe peace has brought misery to the people of Kashmir. It 'interesting that after all the pressure, the Maharaja not yet signed the Act of Accession. The British historian Alistair Lamb, in his book distorts the Indian request for the accession of Maharaja signed the instrument.
