I spoke with a Canadian citizen last week about their health care system, which as we know is universal - womb to tomb - coverage. When I asked some specific questions, the response I received was: "Oh in Canada, we don't even give health care a second thought because we've had it for as long as we can remember." You know, in America, we could say the same thing about war. Children born after 9/11/2001 are indoctrinated to accept as normal the destruction of other countries on the flag-waiving premise of protecting national security and freedom.
