It is interesting that the U.S. superpower cannot take care of the medical needs of its population yet other countries such as Norway, Sweden have excellent care for all their citizens. However, the most disturbing fact is that doctors take a Hippocratic oath to take care of the sick, and do no harm. Yet, when they become employed by insurance companies, U.S. doctors refuse service to as many people as possible to save insurance companies money.

So, when U.S. candidates for Presidential office speak of "family values" knowing this as well as speak about "human values" who are they kidding? Refusing medical treatment to the poor for lack of health insurance as well as managing people's health based on money do not represent "family values" nor "human values". Let's face it, U.S. values are based on $$$ money.

That's why the rich don't serve in the Armed Forces and are not representative on the War on Iraq. And, that's why Republicans and Democrats talk a lot about "family values" and "medical care" but the only thing they agree on in Washington is to give themselves a $$$ pay raise with more money while the poor get poorer. Real family values as well as human values. Webster defines that as "greed".

What happened to this once great country?
