Statistics From United Nations International Health Organization

Statistics From United Nations International Health Organization

A recent " Investor's Business Daily " article provided very interesting

statistics from a survey by the United Nations International Health

Organization.

Percentage of men and women who survived a cancer five years after diagnosis:

U.S. 65%

England 46%

Canada 42%

Percentage of patients diagnosed with diabetes who received treatment within six

months:

U.S. 93%

England 15%

Canada 43%

Percentage of seniors needing hip replacement who received it within six months:

U.S. 90%

England 15%

Canada 43%

Percentage referred to a medical specialist who see one within one month:

U.S. 77%

England 40%

Canada 43%

Number of MRI scanners (a prime diagnostic tool) per million people:

U.S. 71

England 14

Canada 18

Percentage of seniors (65+), with low income, who say they are in " excellent

health " :

U.S. 12%

England 2%

Canada 6%

I don't know about you, but I don't want " Universal Healthcare " comparable

to England or Canada .

VERY INTERESTING! the percentage of each past president's cabinet who had

worked in the private business sector prior to their appointment to the

cabinet. You know what the private business sector is. a real life

business, not a government job. Here are the percentages.

Taft....... 40%

...... 52%

Harding.... ..49%

Coolidge...... 48%

Hoover....... 42%

F. Roosevelt... 50%

Truman...... 50%

Eisenhower.... 57%

Kennedy...... 30%

...... 47%

Nixon...... 53%

Ford....... 42%

...... 32%

Reagan...... 56%

GH Bush...... 51%

Clinton ....... 39%

GW Bush..... 55%

And the winner of the Chicken Dinner

is. Obama.. 8% !!!

Yep! That's right! Only Eight Percent! the least by far of the last 18

presidents!! And these people are trying to tell our big corporations how

to run their business? They know what's best for GM.Chrysler. Wall

Street. and you and me?

How can the president of a major nation and society.the one with the

most successful economic system in world history. stand and talk about

business when he's never worked for one?.. or about jobs when he has never

really had one??!

And neither has 92% of his senior staff and closest advisers! They've

spent most of their time in academia, government and/or non-profit

jobs. or as " community organizers " when they should have been in an

employment line.
