    Scotland isn't as big or as populated as the US. And I'd bet they don't have the illegal alien population the US has. Is their quality of care as good as ours?
    Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

    That's true.

    No, even legal immigrants don't go to live there if they can help it. For example, Muslims are just over 1% of the population compared with 5% in England.

    Maybe not, but it's better than nothing, which is what 10-15% of Americans get.

    So, you've basically made no point beyond, or contradicting mine.
