      Overall, I believe that this shows that nobody is perfect. Sure the United States has made some mistakes but we have also done a lot of good for the world. The best we can do as a nation is learn from are mistakes and try not to repeat them.

      This may have been a necessary evil in two ways. One, the  war could have been extended and who knows what could of happened. Two, to fully understand the capabilities and repercussions of using nuclear weapons.

McAllen, Texas and the high cost of health care : The New Yorker - 2 views

  • Medicare spends three thousand dollars more per person here than the average person earns.

      This is ridiculous. Healthcare should not be that expensive especially for a town like McAllen, Texas. The government needs to step in in and figure a way to reduce healthcare costs.

      I do not think that letting Clint Eastwood speak on Mitt Romney's behalf was such a bad idea. Maybe if Clint Eastwood were to support Romney maybe Romney can get the support of Clint Eastwood's fan base. However attacking another candidate's supporters is not the smartest idea. No matter who you support we are all Americans and should not be attacked in a presidential fundraiser. Furthermore I have heard of plenty of rich people avoiding taxes who are not Obama supporters. You can look at the election polls all you want all that really matters is the end result.

      This does not surprise me at all. I do not expect many nations in Africa to have great health care systems. It shows that some people are just less fortunate due to their surroundings and resources.
