Hi all,
I've just been skimming a few posts here, and have some comments.
Being in a population which is also supported by universal health-care , and
education (as most of us have) . For the health-care, I would say is the
service which I appreciate most. It has served me a few times, and even
though the government is bungling it by under-funding, its still greatly
appreciated (I , and many others would become poor without it).
Education.......we all know.....lets not get started.
As to the function of "liberal" and "conservative" political groups
(parties), I doubt that there is really, in essence, much difference between
the two. Often in word perhaps, but in deed.....
I think that the Netherlands are a very unique example of a government that
is...less occupied with pure business, but I cannot say , since I do not
live there. Here in North America, I believe that the focus on economics
over the actual well-being of society , both intellectually and socially
speaking , is the wrong direction to take if a real, lasting, progress is
wanted.
My 2 cents (1.56 u.s.)
