Maybe I'm dumb, but could you please repost your message with a layout I can read and using English that makes some sense (spaces between words, punctuation)! I realise you are trying to ridicule / poke fun at the USA on this issue, but you are losing the audience by the way you lay your arguement out. Please note this is not intended as a "flame", just a friendly request from a NON-USA list member.

Timely  access to good care and
prevention is a huge problem in our  country.

Personal responsibility and life style diseases and an assumption that  
someone else should pay for the privilege (not right) to receive health care is  
even a BIGGER problem in our country.    Prevention is a good  thing, but if we 
are really serious about prevention, then we MUST do something  about smoking, 
drinking while driving, drug misuse, availability of guns and  other weapons 
especially when there is a mxture of ETOH, drugs, and  excitement, driving 
fast, etc.   Our criminal justice system also  needs to be reformed to assure 
quick appropriate judgement and punishment for  breaking the law.

K is correct

Especialyinthe sensethatthe USAas a disproportionate 
problem with:
drinking while driving, drug misuse, availability of guns and  other weapons 
especially when there is a mxture of ETOH, drugs, and  excitement, driving 
fast, etc.

The solutionisnot;
Our criminal justice system also  needs to be reformed to assure 
quick appropriate judgement and punishment for  breaking the law.     

Your criminal system is plenty quick and aggressive

What you are lacking is inclusiveness
In the land of individual freedom(justice)
That is,in act, less free than most first world countries

Indicvidual health assurance

Is like pissing in Manhattan (or any large city)

It a natural process that can not beavoided not exactly predicted
And the system ignores this need

Let the private sector take care of it
For patrons only
Itsnobodies problem
Nobody needsto pee in the movies either

Life is not a movie
The US is a bad film 

Try peeing in other cities
It s illuminating
