Now to the fabled Socialized healthcare

When they talk about this, they forget to mention about the wait times

Is it not better to have healthcare and be in debt than to die on waiting lists

Below are stories of Canadians who couldnt see doctors after months in Canada, many drive south to the US to get healthcare. Is this what America wants with socialized healthcare? Waiting months to see a doctor

A policy brief — titled Flight of the Sick, by the Calgary-based think tank secondstreet.org — says 217,500 Canadians left the country for health care in 2017, according to Statistics Canada. If those travelling with the patients are included in the count, the total rises to 369,700 people.

To that end, secondstreet.org noted Statistics Canada estimates that Canadians spent $690 million on health care abroad in 2017, up from $447 million in 2013. (The federal agency wasn’t able to provide a breakdown of patients seeking medically-necessary procedures and those leaving Canada for cosmetic surgery.)

That worked out to $1.9 million per day in 2017, an increase from $1.2 million per day in 2013.

Of those Canadians seeking health care elsewhere in 2017, the report says the majority were from Ontario, anywhere from as low as 154,000 people to as high as 208,400, based on survey data from Stats Canada.

Vardy could claim he had muscle injury during this period, what's Benzema excuse for being useless? Is Ronaldo's spirit still blocking his goals? grin

Was it musccle injury that stopped Vardy from scoring for 2 months?

Which foolish question is that? How many goals did Vardy score in Leicesters last 9 games and did that stop him from being one of the EPL top scorers

Folks, before now, the premise upon which Raumdeuter used to rate a league as the best was the performance of their representatives in Europe but now the EPL is doing well, the goal post has been shifted.

The UCL and UEL was contested by EPL teams last season and now, all the EPL representatives have make it to the round of 16 in the UCL just as Manchester United, Wolves and Arsenal are doing great in the Europa league but no, the EPL must be garbage because of what is happening in their local league...Europe is no longer the standard...What a time to be alive...Amala has suffered.

Is this your surrender post? Cos it sounds like it

Did I call the EPL weak last season?

The EPL is weak this season and you can see the evidence from the point haul of the major rivals this season

Tell us which of the top teams aside Liverpool are having their best season pointwise in the past 5yrs this year

The trends matter. The current trend shows that the Republican Party has been continuously losing support since Donald J Trump became President.

Louisiana is not a swing state & the 2020 Presidential Election will be decided by Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, Florida, Arizona, Nevada & possibly Iowa, North Carolina & Georgia.

And if Former Vice President Joe Biden is the Nominee then he will beat Donald J Trump like a drum at the polls come November 3rd 2020.

#Beat him like a drum

She could have been 17 years old at the time the picture was taken, say 2006, Paul is 37 now, so he should have been in his early to mid 20s then and he looks it.

This was Pauls picture on their album cover in 2005 when Paul was 24yrs

Why didn't they compete for the UCL for the rest of their careers? It is obvious they either coached teams who couldn't qualify or they didn't have a long career (To have a long career, you need to win trophies regularly, most of them didn't win enough to have their respective clubs retain their services)..

They didnt coach teams who were rich like Man utd and stayed long unchallenged even when failing in Europe

You're being picky with the points I have raised. We're the 5 new entrants into the team of any difference?

The best attacker in the team was still Messi
Best midfielder was still Iniesta
Best defender was still Pique or Alves

Those are the core of the team.

Neymar added the goals

Bayern 4 vs 0 Barcelona...Starting 11

Valdes; Jordi Alba, Gerard Pique, Marc Bartra, Dani Alves; Sergio Busquets, Xavi Hernandez, Andres Iniesta; Alexis Sanchez, Lionel Messi, Pedro Rodriguez

Barcelon 0 vs 3 Bayern... Starting lineup...

Victor Valdés; Adriano, Gerard Piqué, Marc Bartra, Dani Alves; Alex Song, Andres Iniesta, Xavi Hernandez; David Villa, Cesc Fábregas, Pedro Rodriguez.


The Barcelona team that beat Juventus to win the treble...Starting line up...

Marc-Andre ter Stegen; Jordi Alba, Javier Mascherano, Gerard Pique, Dani Alves; Sergio Busquets, Ivan Rakitic, Andres Iniesta; Neymar, Luis Suarez, Lionel Messi


Don't forget Messi wasn't fit and played just one leg just like Alba...

Now check, Ter Stegen, Mascherano, Rakitic, Neymar and Suarez...That's 5 new players and a fit Messi...

For more emphasis, Rakitic, Neymar and Suarez were the goal scorers...It shows the impact they had in the team...


How many starters were in both teams? in 2013 and in 2015. 6 players Some of the greatest of all time we hear about Like Xavi Iniesta Messi Busquets Pique all present

Messi wasnt fit but played full 90mins

Did you read the link you posted? Or you are allergic to reading like other citadel students

“In recent years, I’ve had 4-3-3, but the 4-3-3 at Chelsea was very different to the one at Napoli,” Sarri told a news conference.

“We had to accommodate Hazard’s characteristics, as he could change the game, but also his presence caused issues in defending that we had to work on.”

"Statistically it's my best season, and I like to say that because the way he's [Sarri] thinking is the same way I think about football," Hazard told BBC Football Focus,
