Wait until someone tells him how much he’s paying in taxes for his “free healthcare”.

"My bodyguard's baby was premature, and now he has to pay for it.

Gee, The Beav didn't think of HELPING pay his bodyguards bills himself, did he?

Nope it's free.

He makes MILLIONS yet doesn't think of providing his employees HEALTH INSURANCE?

He is "THE EVIL One", a greedy, fat cat (according to his liberal, Hollywood friends)

I hope his "GOOD" country takes away a big chunk of his money. After all he is only "a winner in life's lottery"(according to Alex Baldwin)

Maybe like most body guards he works for a company that provides body guards and is their job to supply these things just like any company that hires temp employee’s.

He's just a kid.

He's a kid, pretending to be an adult. And doing a lousy job of it.

If he wants to be treated like an adult, then he had better be prepared to handle the consequences of his actions.

What the hell is the matter with you.

There's nothing wrong with me. On the other hand, Bieber is a guest in this country. It's time he learned to act like one.

What the hell is your problem?

who told him it was a good idea to insult Americans? Din’ work out so good for the Dixie Pricks, did it?

Won't hurt him much. His core audience is ignorant, preteen females with raging hormones who probably think "free Health care" is a really "cool idea".

Dixie Chicks, however, forgot who their base supporters were (red state, patriotic, flag waving, country music fans)

Not the Hollywood, Anti-American, leftists Natalie Maines so desperately abandoned her band's future in a sad attempt to win the "IN CROWD's "favor".

That little boy has never paid taxes. ....and he certainly doesn't understand what they're used for.

He will when he grows up and realizes the millions he made didn't reach his pockets until his "generous" gov't took it's share. It will really hurt when his fanbase abandons him and leaves him without the wealthly lifestyle he had become used to..

Think Leif Ericson, Shaun Cassidy, etc.

He will then realise that "free Healthcare" is really expensive.

But he will be happy to know he's already paid his treatments for his drug abuse and resulting health woes...

...He needs only to "stand in line and wait...."

Blame what passed for journalism in asking a 16 year old entertainer the question in the first place. Blame the publisher for not firing the reporter for abject stupidity and going to print instead.

But that's how Rolling Stone rolls.

I know he’s no angel, but he’s only a boy.
Evidentally he was raised right, and he’s trying to live by his religious teachings.
Can you just imagine the pressures and temptations for a boy in this situation?
I don’t care for his type of music, but he seems to be trying to live a good life and I wish him well.

How is doing an interview with Rolling Stone acting like an adult or did he do something else specifically that means he is “acting” like an adult?

True but The Beev's first reaction was not to help the stricken family but to foolishly insult millions and create controversy.

Of course he's just a teenager with a weird haircut who can sing. Some day he will grow to realize how foolish he acted.

Unless he becomes a liberal

A kid would have responded: "My mom and dad take care of that."

An adult who remembered that he/she was a guest in the US would have said: "The healthcare systems in the US and the Canada each have their pluses and minuses, but it's not my place to criticize this one".

An teenager with an inflated view of his age and maturity would have laughed and said: "You guys are evil".

Any questions?

Seriously, the people depending Bieber on this thread need do some growing up on their own.

Did you read the actual article? He didn’t insult anyone he gave an opinion of the health care system. Did it really hurt you that much, you have to be this angry over what some kid says? We don’t know if he did help or didn’t help we just know he thought it was unfair that the guy was left to pay the bill. This would be because he is used to another system. He may have helped he may not have, really doesn’t matter since this is not about him but about healthcare and the government.

My kids would give an opinion if asked, they are confident and intelligent. This kid also appears to be and no reason for disdain.

Doubtful your average adult would have said that. A politician maybe but not your average person. They would be asked their opinion and would give it.

A teenage with an inflated view of his age and maturity? Really? I’m pretty sure that is every teenager. LOL!

Any questions? Yea, like how do you come to these conclusions with a straight face? You have pointed at behavior that all teenagers show.

Yea all of us depending him really should grow up? That is sure a way to show your maturity... LOL!

That's exactly my point. But, it's no reason to give this one a pass.

So how does that excuse this one? I would have said the same thing about any teenager who spouts off like that.

What's your excuse? Is my criticism of him cutting a little to close to you?

Yea all of us depending him really should grow up? That is sure a way to show your maturity... LOL!

Yup, a single-letter typo is a great metric by which to judge someone.

“That’s exactly my point. But, it’s no reason to give this one a pass.”

Whatever, i’m sure you are out there calling names and putting down every teenager who does this. *rolls eyes*

“That’s exactly my point. But, it’s no reason to give this one a pass.”

Very doubtful, you are attacking a child from an anonymous blog doesn’t support the idea you would actually do this if you had to look on in the eye.

“That’s exactly my point. But, it’s no reason to give this one a pass.”

Nope, I just find it funny how a childs limited opinion seems to have some of you all in a tizzy. It’s hilarious to watch someone try to act like his opinion doesn’t matter while whining about his opinion.

“Yup, a single-letter typo is a great metric by which to judge someone.”

It wasn’t the tyupe I was judging someone it was how amazingly you show your maturity by insulting anyone who doesn’t agree with you. Yet you seemed to miss that point and that just hammers it home better. LOL!

I bet the playground is tough on you, kids say amazingly silly things, i’m sure they would have you driving off a cliff in a matter of minutes.

Leave him alone he’s a child try to show your maturity by actually realizing that.

I am sure that you are correct. However, his biggest fan base is here.

Personally, I do not hold his statements against him due to his age.

Unfortunatly kids do not learn about real life until it hits them in the face. And that is in both countries.

The real thing that bites me is people in the entertainment industry with no or very little education beyond high school making millions yearly and living in seclusion from reality who want to tell working class people what is right and what is wrong.

Then you have the vapes who listen to them.

OH WELL!

If he had said that in my presence, I would have certainly put him in his place. But, I doubt I would have had the opportunity while he was hiding behind his bodyguards.

If I had said something like that at his age while in a foreign country (or even in another state), I would have been swept up and sent back home so fast my head wouldn't have been spinning for a week. And, I'd have been lucky to go anywhere else but school until I turned 18.

Nope, I just find it funny how a childs limited opinion seems to have some of you all in a tizzy. It’s hilarious to watch someone try to act like his opinion doesn’t matter while whining about his opinion.

The teenager is entitled to his opinion. But as a guest in the US, he isn't entitled to insult his hosts. That's impolite and immature behavior, regardless of age or whether you agree with him.

And that's the lesson this particular spoiled brat needs to learn.

Leave him alone he’s a child try to show your maturity by actually realizing that.

He's not a child. And that's what really amuses me: people like you trying to trivialize him as one in order to defend him.

But even if he was a child, he should have learned these basic manners by the time he was 6 or 7 years of age. Do you allow your own kids to insult their friend's parents while guests in their house? How about their teachers?

Or do you consider that considered acceptable behavior?
