INFANT MORTALITY

LITERACY RATES

FOREIGN AID


That's the trifecta of liberal ideologue braggarts.

For all their vaunted brain power, not one liberal looks deeper
behind a shallow stat. They rush to grab it like a cheap worthless
prize.



Name one country with a more diverse ethnic
population WITH larger aggregate ethnic
and immigrant populations than America ??

With 12 million Mexicans escaping MORDIDA which
is strangling what could be a 1st World country with
all its oil, its resources and coming to America, you
can better believe this immigration certainly skews
the stats on INFANT MORTALITY and LITERACY RATES.

Does Canada have 12 million illegal immigrants ???

This country is so large in every possible way it often
daunts the simplicity of a liberal ideologue's "FACTS.",

And then of course there's FOREIGN ADD boasting.

This is how stupid such boasting is (oh you mean somebody
else brags more than America ?) :


1. The percentages of government spending bragged about
by liberals are piddly sums when looked at total dollar amounts.

2. False comparison too. It doesn't even compare to private
donations and private charity from Americans, which dwarfs
the world's.

3. It honors taxes as the means, not a culture of private
contribution, and so how much do individual donate in
these countries. Just check out the continuing outreach
of private charity and local organizations in the Tsunami
Relief effort still going on, beneath the headlines.

4. False comparison again when military budgets of aircraft
carriers and military aircraft delivers the outreach of aid.
Just check out the examples of boasting while the military
did its job on the Tsunami relief.

5. It takes no account of all of the graft and corruption and
waste going to thugs who run some foreign governments in
Africa.

6. It takes no account that taxes going to foreign aid is the
Big White Father patronizing thing to do and is so piddly
and little compared to the wealth redistribution brought about
by Free World Trade, much of it made on loan by the
American consumer who loses jobs to these countries.

Infant mortality is meant to include everyone, even illegal immigrants. That's the point (to view things from a population perspective, not an individual one). It isn't supposed to be a competition, it's supposed to give us an insight into how well we are doing as a society and where we need to improve. I really wish health stopped being used as a political issue the way it is. The US does have some things it could improve on in this area. I see far too many women who have had no prenatal care and their babies suffer for it. We should be looking at how to improve that without caring what other countries' stats are. We should just be concerned about improving conditions in our own backyard. This isn't about keeping up with the Jones'.

BTW, several illegal immigrants babies do better in my unit that those born to legal Americans. Any nicu nurse can tell you about "wimpy white boy syndrome". My best baby yet was the daughter of an HIV + Ghanain family when I lived in Toronto. She rocked.
