Unbelievable, I'll add this to my list of why I hate america and even though I have close family in the states, I will never go.

There's something really wrong about a country which moralises 2 UNIVERSITY students having sex, but then lets people die for not having the correct health care.

It's a Mormon church based school. He was dumb enough to (a) go there and (b) admit to it, where's the problem? Sure, the rule's backward, but it's not like he couldn't have known - it's like going into a no smoking restaurant, lighting up then wondering why you've been asked to leave.

Hardly "unbelievable" Confused

So you won't visit the whole of the USA because they don't have national healthcare and is full of bible bashers? Rolling Eyes

It's Utah, the mothership of the Mormon religion and it's crazy ways, it's also full of what appears to be a heavily inbred population of American Indians. It has some amazing national parks though so it's upto you if you want to ignore it. There are 49 other states which are crazy in other way but generally a bit more normal. It's not like counties in England, the states are more like seperate countries with entirely different ways and law sets.

Don't brand all of the states the same, avoid the bible belt for sure, but they're some very nice states.

Because some incredibly sad loser was sitting in his pew one day and thought "Tea's got caffeine in it, caffeine is a stimulant, we can't have people being stimulated, it's ungodly...BAN IT!!!"

Doesn't say you can't drink Red Bull. The essence of it is that they won't let you do anything that is even slightly addictive. You can bet your bottom dollar though that the head honcho is doing the lot.

These are some of the reasons I won't visit America, for all of the media talk of hating Europe, we look after our citizens in their time of need whether be it health or socially. America is all about money and if you don't have it, you haven't got anything.

Compare this to the UK for all it's faults, If I'm sick I will be treated, if I am homeless I will be provided a home.

I would recommend that you watch the movie Sicko by Michael Moore. Some of the best bits were 9/11 rescue volunteers, being denied access to medical care. Children dying even though they had insurance, the insurance companies refused to pay out or to use certain hospitals. It also goes in to detail how there are loss adjusters who will use excuses such as you had a yeast infection 20 years ago, to reject a medical claim.

Ohh get this, Asthma inhaler in America $100 !!!! Cuba $0.05

Hate seems quite a strong word for someone who has never visited the country and judges 4 million square miles of land by what they see in the papers.

I found this article very interesting and raised a few valid points. Especially on how we judge America on our rules, rules that a lot of people died to escape from.

More to the point, the only way Doctors stick to the hermetic oath is by using tupperware.

Brick Wall

Hypocratic Oath perhaps closer?

I lolled good and hard at that.

I was also most interested to note that Alec Jeffreys invented DNA.

This is probably about the most disgusting thing I've ever seen on the internet.
