Alex,

You are confusing an "inner city problem" with culture, it makes as much sense as saying - Genocide is part of the German culture because of the Holocaust.

Also you are obviously not as aware of the "health care" situation in the US as you think you are.

ALL sports program participants in the US are insured by the program running the sport, it is manditory.

Also NO hospital is allowed to deny treatment because of ability to pay.

And we also do not tell anyone they are too old to have a proceedure that would lengthen / better their lives.

Remeber I am all for bashing Bush along with you, but please keep it to relivent reality.

Oh and don't tell me what it is like to live in the US and be poor, I lived below the poverty line for about half of my life.
