So disagree with it. Moving to Canada won't stop it.

#3. Healthcare, I hate the fact I can't go to the doctor since I can't afford it. My legs have scabs on them and I don't know why. I have a job, my CEO makes millions while I worry about having diabetes. But, I can't go to the doctor. I can't pay the bill. My ankles have gained over 1 inch in the last year, and are full of scabs that won't go away. ????


Healthcare is expensive for two reasons. Neither of them is the fact that the government doesn't have ENOUGH control.

Reason #1: Lawyers (sorry Simey).

Reason #2: Bureaucracy - my wife works as a medical receptionist and my mom is an office manager/nurse. They spend over half their day with government required paperwork that has nothing to do with treating a patient!

So he's an assh0le. Don't go to disneyland or their movies. Moving to Canada solves this how?

#5. I hate America since most people only care about the car in their driveway and not the person across town.


I think this is very much untrue. My car is a piece and I really like the people in my hometown. I think your statement is a gross generalization.

#6. I hate America because we drop million dollar bombs on a country and forget about the fact Oregon almost had to cut 20 days from the school year. Lucky us, the teachers are now teaching for free.


Talk to the Oregon legislature. Do you understand that the defense budget has nothing to do with education? Oregon has it's own problems, like every state. But that has nothing to do with America.

The fact that so much tax money goes to Washington and then is redistributed from the "education" budget is a shame. It should stay with the states in the first place.

Oh, I was curious if I could actually get a job and housing in Canada. Looking for them comes next..


Good luck in Canada.

Personally, I love this country and you couldn't force me to live under a socilized governent like Canada.
