Yeah looking at that list of nations that supposedly have "free universal health care" includes Thailand , they have clearly used the term loosely, been to Thailand many times and with the exceptions of the paid private international clinics most people are left to their own devices or to rudimentary care,

In terms of the US, most people are covered with job insurance, and you really have to wonder why after so long why nearly half the nation don't want free universal national health care???

now that would be a disaster jack...I bet the FLK looks forward to you giving her some peace and quiet on Thursday nights.

Having lived here (Thailand) for over 10 years, I can say with absolute confidence you have NFI.

DD its not that easy to drain the swamp.The swamp fighting back using fake news.

DD I would strongly recommend that you stop believing what Fox News say.

Fits in nicely, BC - Thursday nights she also attends the local CWA meeting. You would kill for one of her pumpkin scones.

That story been quiet for a few weeks now.They considered moving to Thailand long before Trumps time.Opening a new plant in a Scandinavian country for European sales?

But the (new Ashland aluminium rolling) plant was put in motion well before Trump took the oath of office, for reasons having nothing to do with his presidency. The president’s policies appear to have made the plant more economically viable, but it appears it would have been launched without those policies.

Jack that Washington Post article might be fake news.

Has Alan Kohler ever used the phrase "The swamp fighting back using fake news."?
