You go to an emergency room and you get treatment. Federal law requires hospitals to treat individuals regardless of their ability to pay. If it's not an emergency, than you'll likely have to get treatment through medicaid which is a program that assists the poor but generally takes longer. Hmmm kinda like Europe.

For crime rates, you'll find often that they seperate property crimes from violent crimes and the like. In 2002, the top five worst states for violent crimes per 100,000 population are as follows:
1. Florida (6205)
2. New Mexico (5962)
3. Arizona (5896)
4. Lousiana (5746)
5. South Carolina (5324)

Metropolitan Stastical Areas are a census designation for large urban areas. In answer to your question about the largest city, in terms of MSAs the largest is the New York MSA. Here are the MSA's with the highest crime rates per 100,000 people as of 2002:
1. Pine Bluff, Arkansas (1446)
2. Miami, Florida (1251)
3. Tallahassee, Florida (1153)
4. Lubbock, Texas (1081)
5. Springfield, Massachusetts (1052)

Haha I used to live there. Currently my county produces the most meth out of the entire U.S. We rock.:wtf: |
i learned in a training class at work that because the central valley is such a big meth center in this country, the street value in california is much less than in new york. i dont suppose that is good. |

Why is President Bush such a wanker?
Why are there so many obese people?
Why is there so much crime ?
What is the war in Iraq really about, WMD, terrorism, oil or something else?
Why is our popular culture dominated and heavily influenced by the US? |
1. Bush is a wanker because he is President of the United States. The older Bush waa qualified to be a good leader (ex head of CIA, VP among others), but being the President's son does not make you a good candidate! if bush were some business man, he be a less publically seen wanker.
2. Maybe because kids are trained to love restaurants (which serve large portions of food with high calorie amounts) and they become accustomed to eating large quantities
3. There is so much crime because we live in a cuture that breeds fear?
4. The war in Iraq is mostly about having a large-oil producing nation be essentially subservient to us as we get rich along the way?
5. Because control of the mass media is centralized in an extremely small amount of people and theyre paid by the labels
dont know if any of this is fact but this topic seems kinda out there by now so... |

Yes, it was in 2003. The 2004 rankings won't be released until, you know, the end of 2004. Common sense. :rolleyes: |

Woohoo! My state is 4th in killin' folks.
Louisiana sucks. Don't live here. New Orleans is actually cool though, but in another 200 years or so it won't be there. So, don't live there either. Just... stay away from Louisiana. |

so I conjured up some random questions.
1. How many states altogether? 49, 50 or 51
2. What is the biggest city? is it NY
3. Why the hell do so many people over there like sport!?
4. Which state/city has the lowest crime rate
Which has the highest?
5. What is the connection between Florida and oranges?
i.e. Is that where the majority come from? |
Homestate "inside a box"... Aren't you the inquistive one then? Do you live in a third world country you're ashamed of and won't even post a flag? America is a superpower and has got it going on. Ask the same questions about your own country first before you post out here you asswipe.
