[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]More importantly, why are American doctors doing charity work abroad when there are so many needy people in the US. We should not have doctors overseas.  [/quote]

Seriously??????  I certainly hope you are a troll.  I don't even know where to begin...  Those doctors are saints and putting their lives on the line.  They are learning and gathering information about these diseases so that we get closer to finding treatments and cures and vaccines.  Not to mention keeping people from dying.  [/quote]

I think we should put our own citizens first.  [/quote]

I wonder what the world would look like today if we had followed this doctrine during World War II.[/quote]

The world was at war and our country was attacked.  There were German uboats off the coast.  Big difference between that and sending medical doctors to remote countries across the world when we have Americans without access to healthcare.  I think it's silly that these people are getting healthcare provided for free but we had people every year filing bankruptcy.   You think that airplane flight home is cheap?  The flight from Africa I mean.  It would be much better if that money was used to pay for surgeries or medical procedures for tax paying Americans.  No one is going to convince me that it's more improbably to take care of another country's citizens before our own.  [/quote]
