Re: Uh Oh, I See A Problem
Ron,
To my point about how it is easier for Canada to provide health care to a homogenous populatoin that is relatively healthy Canada had, in 2004, only an estimated minority populaton of 4 million people out of 32 million total.
America has signficant Black and Hispanic populatons with poor eating habits that cause increased medical problems. I don't feel like paying for somebody elses bad haibts. They can get a job and inusurance just like I did.
By the way in looking for the Canadian demographic info I stumbled across some disturbing religous demographic info.
In 1991 1.6% of Canadians identified themselves as Pentecostal but 10 years later in 2001 only 1.2% did. Yikes! A 15.3% drop. Whats the scoop?

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
