Which oddly enough I didn't really watch for it and watch two seconds. I don't watch 12. But -- apparently she's she she's saying that we we should be more like China. She she she -- she ran a spot. In a in. For you know. For perplexing reason to separate the preview of the pre. Pre games -- the pre Olympic ceremonies were very popular so this was I'm sure very expensive by and she wanted to talk about the America's. Shortcomings as opposed to -- the Communist Chinese now. We've got bridges who -- it need to prepare and thousands of people in need of work. Why are we rebuilding America. Our competitors and putting people to work building the future China investment 9% of its GDP -- infrastructure. America. We're just 2.4. Percent. We can do better we can build a foundation for a strong economy and get people in Massachusetts to work right now. I'm Elizabeth Warren and I approve this message. Let's go to work. If you do a little bit of first time ever this. But does this China a -- you know maybe I maybe I just don't know this month expert on China at this time of the Davis Bacon Act. That they have to pay eighty that they have to pay -- -- -- union workers their their construction workers the so called prevailing wage. Do think do you think China would take that twenty years to put in -- median strips on on 128 like Massachusetts is going. We're trying to come minute. At ten times the original budget estimate of the big take. -- and this does anyone really wanna be China the candidacy. Elizabeth isn't. Now Elizabeth Warren supports. Gay marriage and abortion rights. That she support the one child policy of China. You know you have you have mandatory. Abortions and sterilizations. After one child is that is that the kind of society that says she wants. And of course this thing ran in the in the the the opening ceremonies with this this guy that it does slum dog millionaire Danny Boyle. If he yeah I guess the most amazing thing once we talked about how great the national health services. The NHS we talked about this whole -- in the on the show because we we read the English papers. And I mean it's just it's a complete disaster the national health service and they're promoting it and of course they're promoting it. Not so much for the brits because the brits know how bad it is and the brits the brits despised the national health service. It's it was it was done this this. Old due to the national health service the one on for about fifteen minutes it was two with two. To try to brainwash the American people into thinking that that that. Obamacare is great. Of sports website the -- said London 2012 most political Olympics opening ceremonies since -- Berlin 1936. And of course that was the an infamous propaganda exercise for Adolf Hitler. The -- ceremony got under way with images of bucolic Britain this is John fund. National review. Got under way with -- images of a bucolic Britain being swept away by a cigar chomping elite that bill satanic mills filled with oppressed workers are steeple -- hang from the towering chimneys. Later 600 doctors and patients recruited from national health service hospitals are featured in numbers -- tribute to socialized medicine. With children bouncing up and down on 320. Hospital beds in a raid in front of a giant Franken baby wrapped in bandages. The fifteen minute sequence. Ended with a series of red lights triumph for -- spelling out -- chests. At a news conference before him the director again puts director of slum dog millionaires six point one of the reasons he quote put in the NHS in the show is that. Everyone is aware of how important NHS is to everybody in the country. One of the core values of our society is it doesn't matter who you war he will get treated the same in terms of health care. -- Can anyone seriously believe this Sundays British papers -- port for the study by the research firm war heats. TSB premier banking found that nearly two thirds of Britain's. Earning more than 78700. Dollars a year taken -- private health insurance because they don't trust the NHS. A survey by the British health care organization -- off. Found that two thirds of it of its customers cited the risk of infection from super bugs as the top reason for buying private insurance. Horror stories about the NHS abound. But 2007 survey of almost 1000 physicians by doctors magazine found that two thirds said they had been cold weather local NHS trust. Not -- -- subscribe certain drugs and one in five doctors -- patients which suffered as a result of treatment rationing. Through Freedom of Information Act records it has been found that 980% of NHS trust will ration care. Rick do very in the daily mail was aghast that the worship of the NHS during Friday's Olympic ceremony. And say that's because the the Daily Mail lists -- that the it is at the forefront. Reporting that the almost daily scandals in the treatment of a British. Subjects. Richt whose very recount of the 2009 case of keen warning that the 22 year old in -- -- patient. -- was admitted to hospital for hip replacement. That's when it's close to home a series of hospital employees refused his request for glass of water and failed to give him diabetic diabetes medication. He went so far to call the emergency operator for help line 11. When the police arrived nurses assured them the Gordy was confused needed no outside help a day later he was dead of dehydration. The official inquest into his death was published this month that found neglect by the hospital staff for cascade of individual failures contributed to his death. Here's hoping every one is not treated the same Britons and nature H hospital's. In Britain we have seen what could be your future and it's not a pretty sight. Again it's you know NBC. They they had. Matt Lauer and they brought back -- Meredith Vieira from retirement to talk about how. You know the brits love their national health care service they think it's it's it's a national treasure.
