Answer 1

1. It is good that you have been reading. It certainly helps improve your grammar and vocabulary.

2. However, do not believe everything you read to be true, do some checks.

3. After you've got the hang of reading, avoid the trashy tabloids like The Sun. If you must, use it as a form entertainment, when you're in the loo.

Answer 2

Yeah, it"s a bloody disgrace!! USA the land of opportunity and freedom, some joke that is. There is as much if not more poverty in America than most other "civilised" countries. Now they have this "Homeland Security" act, anybody can be removed from the streets and just locked away with no legal representation. Some freedom eh? As for their health care system, if you have money or insurance, then great, you will receive good treatment. If you have no money. no insurance or a long term ailment [no insurance will be given] you have a problem. I don"t mind helping the impoverished, but the arrogant obese yanks can bugger off.

Answer 3

This become undesirable i think of she remains alive butis scarred for lifeand no longer able to artwork. this shouldn't take place social centers have been meant to up learn because of fact the dying of Victoria Climbe a number of years in the past. i think of they too must be subjected to torture and undergo precisely what they did and greater. yet another tabloid comments the mummy is pregnant, notwithstanding she would be in a position to have the youngster bumped off at once i'm hoping she isn't allowed drugs or information throughout transport, and suffers immensley. and that i'm hoping some sees greater healthy to torture him on the same time as he's interior organic evil to the utmost diploma, and so frightening whilst there are a number of childless couples available no longer able to concieve who ought to offer a loving guard domicile.

Answer 4

I wouldn't worry. It may give them a taste of what universal health care is about, so they can tell their friends back home. Maybe one day in the far distant future, they will get their own and stop being the only country in the developed world that doesn't have it.

Maybe sometime before the 22nd century, they'll also get on the metric system as well and stop being one of the only three nations in the world that aren't.

It takes time for changes to come about when your country is run by corporations.

Answer 5

Yes

Answer 6

Hopefully Amwerica will stop making people pay for their medical treatment like its some sort of luxury.

What do the doctors say over there?:

"I'm afraid Mr Dwight-Wienerburger III, that its cancer, but don't worry we can operate - we have a range of excellent plans starting at $2000 dollars. What? You can't afford it? Oh well, you'd best start planning your funeral then. I give you three months".

Doesn't seem very civillised to me.

Answer 7

Health tourism has been going on for decades,& the Yanks were the biggest offenders.It is cheaper for them to come to the UK on holiday,use the NHS at the same time,than to pay for treatment in their own country.So,what's new?

Answer 8

Personally I don't even believe the date written in the Sun news rag let alone anything written in it. The closest thing they write to actual fact is the horoscope!!!!

Answer 9

Not surprising really. The thing is, the system does work in that people who haven't been living in the UK do have to pay, it's just that they have a habit of disappearing before they get called on to do so. But then you can't really demand payment up front if someone's really ill right then, so what can we do?

Answer 10

The best advice here is not to read the Sun.

Yes, I know, a Sun reader able to read, as rare thing.

The Sun is a newspaper full of ****, read by tit heads and edited by bigger tit heads.
