Do they?

Perhaps I should post about where the US is in education compared to the world......

My daughter got her finger smashed in the hotel door in Shanghai. Took her to the children's hospital. X-rays, bone specialist consult, surgeon consult, antibiotic prescription. $30.

Changed it up a little bit

the problem with americas health care is that its for profit medicine, and best profits come from long term treatments not cures

Im not disappointed 37th ain't bad I hear it was a close 37th.....

Posting a thread for 14 year old data.

Find something newer, Blacksun. I bet we've dropped further, like education.
