These statistics are interesting  

 

    
  There are actually two messages  here.  The 1st is very interesting, but the 2nd is absolutely  astounding - and explains a lot.

 A recent "Investor's  Business Daily" article provided very interesting statistics from a  survey by the United Nations International Health  Organization.

Percentage of men and women who survived a cancer five years  after diagnosis:
U.S.               65%
England         46%
Canada          42%

Percentage of patients diagnosed with diabetes who received  treatment within six months:
U.S.               93%
England         15%
Canada          43%

Percentage of seniors needing hip replacement who received it  within six months:
U.S.               90%
England         15%
Canada          43%

Percentage referred to a medical specialist who see one  within one month:

 Check this last set of  statistics!!

The percentage of each past president's cabinet who had  worked in the private business sector prior to their appointment to  the cabinet.  You know what the private business sector  is…a real-life business, not a  government job.  
 
Here are the percentages.

T.. Roosevelt..........38%
Taft......................40%
Wilson ...................52%
Harding................49%
Coolidge................ 48%
Hoover .................42%
F. Roosevelt.........50%
Truman.................50%
Eisenhower...........57%
Kennedy..............30%
Johnson..............47%
Nixon....................53%
Ford......................42%
Carter....................32%
Reagan..................56%
GH Bush............. 51%
Clinton  ...............39%
GW Bush.............55%

And the winner is:

Obama.............. 8%

 
 This helps to explain the incompetence of this  administration: only 8% of them have ever worked in private  business!

That's right!  Only  eight percent---the least, by far, of the last 19 presidents!   And these people are trying to tell our big corporations how to  run their business?  They know what's best for  GM, Chrysler, Wall Street, and you and me !!!

How can the president of a major nation and  society, the one with the most successful economic system in world  history, stand and talk about business when he's never worked for  one?  Or about jobs when he has never really had one?  And  when it's the same for 92% of his senior staff and closest  advisers?  They've spent most of their time in academia,  government and/or non-profit jobs or as "community  organizers." They should have been in an employment  line.
