Thanks H.P. - you can call me Chris btw, most people do.

Tony, I&#039;m not a medical man, so I wouldn&#039;t like to be the fool rushing in where angels fear to tread, but I think hospital waiting lists are the result of all three stakeholders - Government, Medics and we the Clients - all wanting the impossible. 

When all three parties finally bang their heads together and agree on what&#039;s doable, instead of everyone wanting his personal slice of pie-in-the-sky, then we might get somewhere. This is just my opinion.]]></description>

Is-sistema tal-bulk buying kienet l-ewwel haga li tkellem fuqha Joseph, erbgha snin ilu. 

Dawn jekk fhimt sew, donnhom iridu joholqu stat go stat. 

Interessanti kif, f&#039;dan l-istat bil-&#039;middle class&#039; tieghu, se jkun hemm supermarkets, tour operators, djar ghal-anzjani, nsomma dak kollu li tigi bzonn. 

Titkellem ma nies ta&#039; gewwa jghidulek li dazgur lesti jahtfu kull ma jsibu, la d-daqqa taghhom?]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[As an outsider, I can tell you that PN are more &#039;socialist&#039; in their outlook than PL, who to me are pure National Socialist (the sort who wear mirrored sunglasses with the mirrors on the inside).

Spot on, Edward.

If traditional socialism was the regimentation of needs, the latest strain is concerned with wants. 

I disagree when you say that he&#039;s trying to fix a problem that doesn&#039;t exist however. 

His intention is to create the problem, read these same wants, carving out for himself a new market. 

It&#039;s the PN by numbers, in twelve easy steps.]]></description>
