Romney praises universal health care

The Romneybot needs to be reprogrammed. It seems he knows as much about Israel as he does about his own country — next to nothing:

…During his trip to Israel, Romney inadvertently praised the individual requirement and universal health care. “[F]or an American abroad, you can’t get much closer to the ideals and convictions of my own country than you do in Israel,” he said. And according to The New York Times, Romney spoke favorably about the fact that health care makes up a much smaller amount of Israel’s gross domestic product compared to the United States…

…Israel spends less on health care because of a universal health system that requires everyone to have insurance. Every Israeli citizen has the obligation to purchase health care services through one of the country’s four HMOs since government officials approved the National Health Insurance Law in 1995. People pay for 40 percent of their HMO’s costs through income-related contributions collected through the tax system, and the state pays the remaining 60 percent…

  1. Romney also said on his trip that Obama “must” install a defensive missile shield in Poland because Iran wants to fire nuclear missiles at them. Why would Iran fire nuclear missiles at Poland? Even if they had nuclear missiles? Which they don’t. Is Poland that important? Russia might fire nuclear missiles ‘over’ Poland to hit Germany or France or England. Which is also not very likely. Mr.1% has a crazy band of Zionist (neocons) warmongers working for him who know that Romney has never seen a map of the world and has no idea where Poland even is. So they tell him what to say and he says it. He says whatever people tell him to say about economics, his own taxes, national politics, international affairs and so on. This guy is a clown dressed up in business attire.
