  2.  @carll231  he has done a lot of good. So much democrats cannot beat him on actual policy.

  3. That seems like other nations to me.

  4.  @limedickandrew6016  not true. If you do not have insurance the ER cannot deny you. Now in the ER wait times are longer, but those with insurance experience the shortest wait times in the world. Everyone receives care in the US as well. Every nation has problems. In the UK you experience shortages of beds many times.

  5. What does he base that off of? It developed nations it is simply impossible to determine what system is the best.

  6. Yeah, Trump.

  7.  @carll231  the tax cut grew the economy and created many high paying jobs. He did not lock children up in cages. Looting FEMA? That is news to me. He is actually one of the leaders that handled the scamdemic well. Fauci was the one at the beginning saying not to wear masks and that the virus is no that dangerous. However, during that same time Trump banned travel from China and was called a racist. For years he was called a dictator but left the issue up to the states. If his policies are so bad why can't democrats run on them?

  8.  @carll231  because he is not a racist. How is a racist? And what did you want him to do? We had a few cases, that's it. He wasn't the one who told Cuomo to put the sick in nursing homes. And again, Fauci said it was not going to be bad. He banned travel. Trump during the scamdemic was calm, which was needed. Yes, he made mistakes, but democrat governors and mayors made many more. How is that his fault? The economy he inherited was garbage. Why do you think he won? People were frustrated. And who smarter than me? Under him wages have gone up, home ownership went up when it was stagnant. Worker participation was going up when it was stagnant. The virus is a hoax. Why is it the democrat ran states refuse to open up? The kids in cage went on before Trump. The policy is that many drug dealers use kids to enter the nation so they separate the kids from the adults to see if they are the kid's parents. It is not as clear as what you make it out be. FEMA needs to be defunded. Also, he would have money for the wall if democrats would have agreed to it. In exchange Trump as going to give millions of DACA individuals citizenship. Seems like dems don't care about them.

  9.  @carll231  yes, deaths are overstated. Yes, 94% were comorbidities. That means the death rate is much lower. Or this, according to the University of MN 40% of the dead were in nursing homes. According to UCSF 50% of new nursing home patients die within 5 months. That means basically most of those 40% will be dead by this time anyway to begin with. So here we are making people in their 20s, 30s, 40s, etc. suffer with higher suicide rates, higher divorce rates, higher substance abuse use rate, businesses going under, and for what? For a virus that has an over 99% chance of surviving from. Also, why do the goal posts keep moving? First it was lower cases and relive our hospitals, but it isn't that anymore. Take NY, They peaked at around 11,000 cases a day, since june they been study at around 500 a day. The went from nearly 300,000 active cases to around 60,000. But yet they refuse to open back up. You can't just throw numbers out there and expect them to mean anything. Guess what, people die, what a novel concept.. Sorry death is a new thing for you. I attended a funeral of 5 year old girl who died in a car accident, but I do not support banning driving. I am so sorry you never lost anyone in your life. Must be great. But others have and they know how to handle death and not let it stop them.

  10.  @carll231  Sorry that I am well read on this topic I can cite university statistics. Make you far leftists question "free college" if they produce numbers that go against your narrative.

  11.  @JohnnyCageRock  yes it did. Again, home ownership went up, was stagnant prior. Worker participation went up, was stagnant prior. Wages went up. The economy was doing better. The only people who it was not doing better for are people who simply do not want to work. Business love to expand. It gives them more flexibility. You never read up on running a business. If you higher the bare minimum you place yourself at risk of losing an employee and now having to pick up their hours. The owner picks up the hours. Instead they hire more so they can be flexible. Plus, it is more of income taxes being lower so spending goes up.. I explained the kids in cages situation. I guess you support drug dealers dragging kids in the desert and then leaving them after they cross the border. I explained the wall as well as democrats do not support giving DACA citizenship. Doesn't matter. You are denying what he said in February when he said this virus was going to cause no harm. Trump admitted masks are good. He literally gave a press conference showing his mask off. Do you even keep up to date on the issues? Besides, a point is that no one is following any other guidelines. I was at a casino this weekend and guess what, all slot machines were full and large crowds of now one social distancing. So what is point? Or how many democrat governors and mayors are not following guidelines to reopen. Since June NY has seen low daily cases active cases dropped nearly 80%. But they still refuse to open up So states like NY, NJ, MI, IL? All ran by democrats. Plus, do you know the limited powers of the federal government? Have you took an civics or political science course in your life? He had no power to do a federal order. I am sorry that you have to work under Trump's economy and just receive Obamabucks, life is hard.

  13.  @JohnnyCageRock  prior to the scamdemic home ownership was going up. In fact, this scamdemic really proves how successful Trump is. It took democrats using a virus as a pathetic excuse to shut down economies and make lives miserable. Trump as so successful that democrats had no other way to beat him, so they took this virus and overblown it. But now that is not working as more and more people are seeing cases drop and that this virus is not that deadly. How does worker participation go up if jobs are being outsourced? You are clearly not understanding the issue. "You don't hire people if you can't afford them" Sure, but with the tax cuts more people had more money thus they were spending more. And thus companies had more money to hire more. Amazing concept really. A lawfirm will expand if they can. In fact, companies like that want to expand so they do not have all their eggs in one basket. And hiring more interns looks good for the company and gives them more options to possibly hire one of them. Why do NFL teams bring in 90 players during preason even though they can dress less than 50 during games? They have more options to look at increasing their possibility of finding the best players. Your concept of how business operates is very weak. A bank will provide a loan when the economy is strong. The tax cuts lead to that. People live paycheck to paycheck because of poor money management. And that is the point. Yes, the tax cuts led to them having more money and guess what, they spent it. Very few save money in the big picture. People get their money and want to enjoy it. It isn't just the poor, it is almost everyone. Most people do not understand the concept of money, nor the economy itself. Thus those that do, like Trump, establish a situation to have the economy get better. The downfall of the situation is that you have people like democrats that take advantage of these useful idiots. Example, the scamdemic. Many on the left felt we can simply lock down and hand out checks to people and they will be fine. The economy is not that simple. Someone, in the end, will have to leave lock down and produce. That is why the paycheck to paycheck argument is weak, very weak. Sure, they put them in "cages" is you want to stretch the definition of a cage. But you admitted you support drug dealers dragging them through the desert, using them to cross the border, and then leaving them to die. You blame Trump for what was going one when that was the process during the Obama years. Funny how no one brought up that issue until Trump was president. But hey, you admitted you support drug dealers kidnapping kids. Democrats denied protection for DACA because they did not want to give Trump money for the wall. Also, when they had control during the Obama years, why didn't they give DACA people citizenship? You seem to be blindly following democrats. You ignore the fact that Obama also put kids in "cages" or how democrats, when in power, never tried to give DACA people citizenship. You have serious TDS. Fauci is a fraud. First it was it was not that bad. Then it was over 2 million was going to die and all about deaths. Then when deaths dropped it was about how we should not open back up too soon. Things were fine and then cases went up even though deaths were low. Fauci said we were heading in the wrong direction and could see a 100,000 cases a day (we never did). But deaths were still low. Cases mean nothing if deaths are low. When cases started to drop again he said we did it all wrong and that we need to wear goggles. He also said recently the virus is not going away. If that it case we should go back to life and just deal with it. Overall, Fauci just fear mongered the entire time. No actual positive news and progress to get people to keep fighting. He never gave the full story, he just fear mongered. Trump at least started to give positive progress on the virus and positive news. That encourages people to keep taking precautions. When you just fear monger like Fauci did you create three camps of people, those that live in irrational fear, those who are confused, and those who are like "fuck it, I going back to living life". Many complain how there are people who refuse to wear mask and social distance or lock down. Why? Because you had people like Fauci and democrats who just fear mongered and never gave the full story. Thus you have people like me who stopped listening. A time of crisis is conflict with foreign enemies. With the virus every state experienced it differently. When NY was being hit hard South Dakota never locked down. Why should South Dakota lock down just because NY was being hit hard? Just look at it now. The state of FL is opened up, they are fine. They handled it fine. Or even early on, GA was the first state to open back up and they were fine. Why should they remain locked down? You can't create a one size fits all policy. Besides, it is clear at this point no matter what Trump did people like you will blame him no matter what. What it is a moot point. I am safe in the US. What's your point? Trump created a great nation. It took democrats, who had absolutely zero policies, to overblow a virus to try to beat Trump. It is not working. That shows who strong Trump is. Democrats have no idea how to beat him.

  14.  @ugeofaltron5003  what economic talk? You do know I have studied economics on my way to a MBA? And I received an A all those courses? Makes far leftists like yourself question "tuition free college" if I am what they are producing.

  15.  @Azerfield  he did not kick anyone off of their healthcare insurance.

  16.  @jacobray8685  Canada? The same nation that makes people wait for "elective" heart surgery? I will pass. Medicare pays 40% less than private insurance. Under M4A less healthcare will be provided lowering the quality.

  17. @whozabcjc great, where do you live? There are reports of those having to wait months and dying not getting "elective surgery" . Universal healthcare systems simply have longer wait times.

  18.  @laserramon9926  of course you will wish death on someone.

  21.  @laserramon9926  do not really consider it a joke considering how violent the left is.

  22.  @laserramon9926  you were probably that Bernie Sanders supporter that shot up politicians.

  25. Actually the US healthcare system is not a free market.

  26. Most people like their insurance. That is what makes reform hard.

  27. Not a scam, fact is that many times services are provided and they can't pay. Think of someone with no family, getting care, and dying. Either the hospital eats the cost or makes up the difference.

  28.  @ousarlxsfjsbvbg8588  actually they do, mainly specialists.

  29.  @Boris80b  not excuses but reality. In nations with universal healthcare they simply offer less care. Now there are arguments to be made for and against that, but in some nations they label heart surgery as "elective" and make people wait.

  30.  @cesiba1  the government will only pay for so much. Take Medicare for example. When it was first created in the 80s hospitals will draining the system by offering too much care and keeping patients longer. Thus reform was passed to where Medicare pays for only certain things and limits how long hospitals can keep patients. If government is going to pick entire tab healthcare providers will throw the kitchen sink at every patient and keep them longer.

  31.  @dvdv8197  the best doctors typically work in the US. And doctors in those nations are paid less.

  32.  @dvdv8197  doctors have very stressful and difficult jobs. You go to 8+ years of college. You will want to get paid.

  33.  Hugh Guess  never said that. Just saying every nation and system has flaws.

  34.  @dvdv8197  so you want doctors, in charge of someone's life with that stress, who works well lover 40 hours a week to be paid little?

  35.  @cesiba1  ok, become a doctor then

  36.  @Boris80b  I agree. The issue is complex. When you really break it down you cannot say which nation is the best. You have many factors one of them being culture. The US culture likes our system, period. There are very few that don't. I like our system, my insurance pays for everything I ever needed. I do not want to change.
    1
  37.  @ugeofaltron5003  why do you never try to debunk anything I say? Economics is a very complex issue all around. We essentially have a universal healthcare system. The ER cannot deny anyone. One reason why our system is so expensive is that many receive care and do not pay, thus the difference has to be made up somewhere. Every nation has a unique system. It isn't like every nation has the exact same nation and we have something different. And no, the majority do not support a universal system. You are grossly oversimplifying this very complex issue. Healthcare has a ton of moving parts. In fact, in a recent MBA course I was assigned a group where we had give a presentation on healthcare and we did the history of it. It was complex. You had unions in the past fighting against federally ran healthcare thus leading to employer based healthcare. You had quasi form of medicare which eventually became medicare. You had the abuse of medicare by healthcare providers leading to reform and so on. In short, the system is so complex reform is difficult. Just saying "universal healthcare" show ignorance on the topic.

  38. Different point. Almost all pet owners pay. Many use healthcare services and do not pay a dime.

  39. What kind of empathy? People are committing suicides, dying from drug overdoses, going through divorce and losing their businesses because of this scamdemic using covid as an eample. When 94% who die had comorbidities, and the media does not report that, people stop listening. Death is a part of life. It is about finding a balance. If we cap all speed limits to 10 mph we can save thousands. So why don't we? Do you not care about those who die in traffic accidents? Fact is our leaders are failing us, period. And people are no longer listening. The media lies and democrats have shown to be oppressive. That is why we have Trump.

  40. There issue here is this. In many cases of healthcare a service is provided and the patient does not pay. Thus healthcare providers have to make up the cost somewhere.
