Obviously I didn't impress the recruiters at the job fair because I don't feel I got anything out of it. I talked to several recruiters and each said that I meet the mins and they don't know why I shouldn't get the call to interview. Is this what normaly happens or if they like you do you get more feedback? (I wasn't trying to meet any of the regionals, you know the ones that interview and hire on the spot)
 
As a matter of fact, on a legislative level, Gore was quite instrumental in promoting the Internet.

Yeah, and Hillary Clinton was instrumental in promoting great health care benefits… ;)


nonsequitur. Gore's efforts resulted in legislation that promoted the Internet. Hillary's health care plan never made it to committee (unfortunately).

Hillary's health care plan never made it to committee (unfortunately).

Why don’t you check out the excellent Cuban healthcare? Of course, it’ll differ from what you see in Michael Traitor Moore movie – you see when cameras aren’t rolling, the “real” socialist health care, or lack of, is provided.

As someone who’s born and raised in a western European country with a socialized health care that Hillary touted as an example “to the world” I must say – stop drinking the communist kool-aid. My mother broke her hip in a car accident when the car she was riding in was hit from the side (by a teenager who ran the red light). Her hip was “temporarily" (read on) fixed with metal screws and brackets that were sticking out of her for nearly 2 years while she was “waiting in line” for the real surgery. The surgery itself took less than ½ an hour and was a major relief as during the 2 years she could not mover around without bumping into objects which needless to say was very painful.

To say it's unfortunate Hillary’s care plan never made it to the committee (why don’t you just say collective socialist committee?) only shows you've been brainwashed by neo-coms (neo-communists).

You’ve probably already forgotten but here’s an example of the type of health care provided when Soviet Union was still around (a dated article from your favorite New York Times at the end of this message). I mention it because Hillary’s plan is basically a different name for the same plan – universal, “tax” paid, worthless health care.

Btw, I am not saying the US health care system, especially the health insurance industry, is perfect. However, it is light-years ahead of any country with socialized health care. Also, if we stopped providing health care benefits to the millions of illegal aliens we could actually be able to lower the insurance rates and let everyone, even those with very low incomes to have an insurance.


Also, it’s still not too late for you; you can always join Hugo’s revolution in Venezuela. (don’t worry - 10 years from now when he bankrupts his nation, we’ll come to bail you and other apparatchiks out)

And here's a wet-dream just for you!



U.S. STUDY GIVES SOVIET HEALTH SYSTEM LOW MARKS


SPECIAL TO THE NEW YORK TIMES
Published: May 8, 1983
A report by the Joint Economic Committee of Congress concludes that the health-care system of the Soviet Union is responsible for a decreased life expectancy, decreased fertility and increased infant mortality.
Although information on the mortality rate has long been available, the report, by Dr. Murray Feshback, a senior research scholar at the Kennedy Institute of Ethics at GeorgetownUniversity here, gives unusual attention to the rate's possible causes. Dr. Feshback depicts shortages of doctors, hospital beds, medicine and other supplies.
''They've made remarkable achievements in the past decades, but they have a great distance to go,'' Dr. Feshback said. He said the ability to collect data mostly from within the Soviet Union was evidence of the country's concern about the situation.
''It's come to the point where party leaders took public recognition of the problem,'' he said. ''They're having a great deal of difficulty.'' Reaction by Soviet Embassy
The data came from Soviet journals and press reports, as well as accounts by Western journalists and Soviet emigres. Michael Lysenko, assistant to the press counselor at the Soviet Embassy here, said he could not comment on the report. ''How can we read it if it has not yet been published?'' he asked. ''First we will read it, then we will comment.''
The report was made available by Congressional sources and will be released next week. It is one of 50 on the Soviet economy. The committee conducts Soviet surveys every three years.
Although ''there has been a vast increase in the number of doctors, the number of hospital beds, the total amount of money expended for health and the reduction of infectious diseases since the time of the October Revolution,'' he wrote, the efforts did not meet the need. 9 1/2 Months for Bifocals
Supplies, the report says, are difficult to obtain, and they are not always of the highest quality. Dr. Feshback said that the average wait for bifocals in Moscow was nine and a half months and that shortages of such drugs as insulin, aspirin and novocaine were severe.
For more than 30,000 children born with congenital heart disease each year, one neonatal intensive-care unit existed in 1981. The United States had 485 such units.

What are you talking about? You're all over the place. I stated one fact about Gore and simply inserted an editorial comment about my beliefs that health care needs to be more universal. Do you know anything about the history of legislation regarding the Internet? Apparently not. All you can do is post an article about the lack of quality in the former Soviet health care system. It is a gross oversimplification to disregard efforts to universal health care because of the the former USSR. Last I checked, they weren't the be all end all of the socialization of medicine.

Back to the point. I stated one fact and all you could respond with was a very simple minded "in your dreams". One would here such things from kids at the playground.

"Note that these authors of (and participants in) Internet history state clearly that as early as 1988, then-Senator Gore became involved in the goal of building a national research network."
