    Every time I complain about taxes,Bush,9/11,health care,downloading music,etc... I always run into that narrow minded asshat like Tpark that pull out the "Why not just move to Canada?" line.

    It's like talking to a 4th grader no matter how many times you bring up something that needs fixing the igmo's pull out the why not move then? card.

    It's such a childish cop out on their part. But after watching TV for the last 4 weeks and knowing I will have to put up with 4 more years of Bull ?


    Canada is starting to look real good right about now!

    They have great health care, so long as you don't die while waiting your turn.

    Youre from Texas, I'll assume.

    What I can ascertain is that you dont know about Canada.

    He does have a point.
    If you're so miserable in this country, then you should move.

    ... or so the myth goes.

    Canada is exporting a lot of oil to the US, and will have the money to keep up that happy fun health care system.

    I am seriously considering it. If the dollar truly tanks, as it has the potential for doing, and if the Republicans get another 4-8 years to continue their programs of driving the country into the ground, I might just make the leap.

    Canada will be able to benefit from their oil, and Europe is investing in renewables right now while we are dithering.

    Both will be better off than the US after another Republican administration.

    Either Canada or Germany. I could live there long enough to save up some money for retirement, and then come back here with a ton of investments denominated in Euros or Canadian dollars, and live like a king.

    Just like a lot of Americans have done in some parts of Mexico.

    We'll see. If McCain gets the nod, I will give it a couple of years more to see what really happens.

    Welcome to the global labor market. Sprecht Ihr Deutch?

    So many people in the US have this completely false view of the health care systems in Cananda and Europe.

    "booga booga booga SOCIALISM, booga booga booga" ooooh scary.....

    It amounts to little more than supers ion. Ideologically attractive supers ion, fed by anecdotes for the faithful.

    Every health care system has its foibles, and you can find horror stories anywhere.

    The actual hard data show that the US has worse results for more money. You can shake magic free-market sticks and say all the pre-programmed prayers at this all you want and it won't go away.

    Make fun of it now.

    It'll be real funny when your relatives are dying and can't go south of the border for quicker health care response.

    what will either candidate really do if this bailout goes through in their first two years or whole first term for that matter?! obamessiah has said that most of his far fetched programs that he blinded everyone with at the denver temple will be put on hold.......how are any other the countless new programs he's spewing out going to be funded if the bailout goes through. i won't even bore you with the details of his global poverty act, but i'm sure you have that thoroughly dissected.

    If all these people are dying then where is the proof? last I checked our senor citizens travel in a hot smelly ass buses for over 16 hours to buy basic pills that don't cost 25.00 dollars each. The same pills we sell here in America made in India boxed and shipped by Mexicans.

    I don't care how ed up Canada is at least they don't have Bush or Fannie Mae shoving a dildo up our ass.

    I never said a thing about healthcare. I simply stated two assumptions:

    1. S/He is from Texas
    2. S/He doesnt know about Canada

    If s/he does know anything about Canada, s/he wouldnt be talking about moving there.

    I didn't think you were talking to me. I based my opinion on my direct experience with former Canadians.
