I have a hard time believing ANY reports or statistics that come from a government. Sorry, they have a long history of ... well, let's say, "embellishing" the facts to look the way they WANT them to look. DO THOSE government offices have an ACCURATE way of examining the true costs of their health care? How do you know? I don't trust them. I have not REASON to trust them. Do they have a reason to "embellish" the truth? I'd say, yes - they do. If they ADMIT that their socialist program is in fact more expensive than it should be (Canada's IS in serious trouble, you do realize?) how could they keep the voters from rebelling? It's just like The Barry LYING about not increasing taxes to pay for health care, then in the very next breath talking about a "surtax" or a "value-added" tax to pay for it. Or encouraging legislation that FORCES people to either pay for insurance or pay a big fine (or go to prison). THAT'S A TAX! I don't care WHAT the idiots in D.C. call it, if the government is taking money away from you by force - THAT'S A TAX!

  OF COURSE the W.H.O. has the same stats. They undoubtedly ARE the EXACT SAME stats. What, do you think there are actually SEVERAL organizations going around collecting the same data? Fool. They ALL use the SAME data. Which means they are ALL tilted the same way. Man, you need to find a crowbar and see if you can somehow prize your head out of your kiester. You are MUCH too gullible.
