That is impressive, especially the free health care. How is the quality of your health care compared to the USA and what do you have to compare to the social security system of the USA. These are areas that Dubya ignores while he is fighting his wars.

Yes as formulated today it is, it is basically the result of the slave trade arguments FOR slavery of black africans, this philosophical argument was for the most part an american phenomenum , in other ntions the arguments was not if a colour was important but if slavery itself could be defended upon any truly Christian grounds or humanitarian either for that matter, the resounding answer was that slavery could never bedefended, only in the USA and Haiti did people have to go to war to "free" the slaves, before anyone accuses me of americabashing, I am not! These things had to be sorted out for the advancement of the human race as a whole, it is just unfortunate that people had to die to prove a point. I have a personal theory that 1 year of war equals 100 years of bitterness, it seems to me that the (in this area) British model was superior to the USA/Confederate model (I cant speak for other nations as I dont know how they sorted the problem out.), we live on the results of the work of others, let us hope that our heritage, the one we pass on is as good as the one we have inherited.

Rathhole, you don't even know what Kai Tahu is and you are smart assing off. After reading several of your post it is not hard to see that you are the complete dumbass of this newsgroup. No wonder everyone laughs at you.

Of course, one might ask ~how~ poverty was eradicated....

No, we are talking about Dubya Bush. There is not a lot of difference except Dubya doesn't kill his own people, he just kills those in other countries by attacking them and accepting civilian casualities as part of the action.

In Sweden the political parties came together for the good of the nation, in Finland it was a result of a series of savage wars with the Soviet Union, which they against all odds managed to win, in Norway it was the result of Nazi ocupation and the rebuilding of that nation from the ground up, these days it is because they use their oil revenues for the good of the nation. In all cases taxation is involved and if anyone says that taxation is a bad thing it can be pointed out that the entire amount of murders in these nations together for one year is less than that of the USA for one day........ deciding to actually work for the people instead of against them is a goo idea :) Beowulf

Duhh - we're a particularly advanced nation in the field of agricultural technology. We can claim a good number of "firsts" in industrial technology such as the first to fly a powered heavier than air aircraft and the first to split the atom.
We're rather more advanced than the USa in that field - first modern democracy to give women the vote. No difference in rights and treatment of races since
1840.

No. GWBush, although I can see how they might be confused.

Asia and Europe etc.
I trust you can accept an honest answer? The ultimate quality of our health care is much the same as in the USa, with the exception that we are a small country so some specialist areas are "thin" or even non-existant. We do of course have the option of getting those services elsewhere. There are waiting lists for some surgical procedures, variously described as "reasonable" or "excessive" depending on the individual's standpoint. The existance of the "free hospital care" system does not of course stop anyone from joining a private health care system, so if one is unhappy with the public system there are alternatives. If the public system were bad then the private system would obviously gain share or vice versa then the private system would lose share or die. Seems to me the balance is about right here.
We're not hampered by your extreme right wing views. ;-)
We noticed!
While we're a little nation, we have all the access to other nation's experiences and data and we aren't saddled with the US's arrogance of assuming we're the best in the world so we learn and improve. (with the odd right turn every few elections)
