Welcome to IWETHEY!

New It sure doesn't look like that to me
It looks to me like he thinks they are similar, except that Canada has more of a sense of community which makes doctors more willing to be there.

Cheers,

I have come to believe that idealism without discipline is a quick road to disaster, while discipline without idealism is pointless. -- Aaron Ward (my brother)
New Your hypothesis has the weakness...
...that it doesn't square with the conclusion one can draw from the sum total of many of his other posts -- in some he criticises HMOs, and in some (others) he praises (his perception of) Canada.

Nor with what Mike himself *said* shortly after the post we're dissecting -- "I didn't mean to say they're similar", or words to that effect.

Mine lacks that weakness, in that it squares with both of the above.

But, hey, whatever floats your boat.

Your lies are of Microsoftian Scale and boring to boot. Your 'depression' may be the closest you ever come to recognizing truth: you have no 'inferiority complex', you are inferior - and something inside you recognizes this. - [link|http://z.iwethey.org/forums/render/content/show?contentid=71575|Ashton Brown]
