Health Care isn't a good example
Reader comment on item: The Moderation of American Muslims

Submitted by Mardukhai (United States), Apr 9, 2004 at 04:25

Look, I'm as anti-Islamist as anyone, but Universal health care coverage saves a stack of money, ask any Australian. Support for their mixed government and private "cover" is near universal. (The state controled Canadian system is differenct, and doesn't really work.)

By the way, what do Muslims mean by affirmative action? That they get a piece of it?
