  1.  @mattrogers6107  , it isn't shifting the goal posts.

  2.  @FazzBoi  , the common wealth group is a private, special interest group. They even admit the US is number 1 in cancer survival rate. Their "study" simply looked at amenable mortality an life expectancy. Amenable mortality is not reliable. The the two studies entitled "Using ‘amenable mortality’ as indicator of healthcare effectiveness in international comparisons: results of a validation study " and "Amenable mortality as an indicator of healthcare quality - a literature review." As for life expectancy, many factors outside of healthcare influence overall life expectancy. This is what makes healthcare rankings useless. I recommend you read the book entitled "In Excellent Health" by Stanford prof. Scott Atlas.

  3.  C W  , local taxpayers, not federal. But of course you don't know how government works.

  4. Flawed argument. Fire departments are ran locally. Some are private and 70% of fire fighters are volunteer.

  5.  @carlive9532  , there are private fire departments.

  6. Except the US is number 1 in cancer survival rates.

  7.  @PittsburghSonido  , and how often are people denied coverage? People are denied coverage in other nations as well.

  8.  @uzumakiangelus  cover does not mean access

  9.  @FazzBoi  not true. Life expectancy is in the study

  10.  @FazzBoi  , even at that all of the numbers have small differences in them. That is what the two studies I pointed to on amenable mortality brought up. That is why it is difficult to impossible to compare the healthcare system. When you have such small differences in the numbers many factors influence them.

  12.  @Pravdacz-tp8zu  , so who will be the arbiter in determining what is true? Kyle has said many incorrect things about M4A. So has Bernie.

  13.  @mattrogers6107  , so who will be the arbiter in what is true? Kyle has said many incorrect things about universal healthcare. For example, he claims that 45,000 people die a year in the US due to not having healthcare insurance. He claims that number is zero in other nations. However there are two major issues there. One, that number is not zero in other nations. Amenable mortality is an issue in every nation, so that number is not zero in other nations. Also, that 45,000 has been challenged by experts like Katherine Baicker and Robert Kronick. Deciding what is true and what isn't is very difficult. People say "fact check" but facts are the very bottom of Bloom's Taxonomy. How you interpret them is difficult. You can give the same set of facts to two experts and get to legit, but different, interpretations.

  14.  Harry Mann Jr  , very true. Look at his supporters here. They want to silence those that disagree with him.

  15. The 1st amendment allows this. At this point your argument is "My rivals have a stronger argument than I do so I want to silence them as opposed to coming up with a better argument". Maybe this shows that M4A is not an issue you can stand up for.

  16.  Harry Mann Jr  , true. People say that under M4A you get to choose your doctor. So what will happen when everyone wants the best doctor? That doctor can't serve all. So that doctor will deny patients. So what choice do we have? The far left is pushing M4A under deception and misinformation. And when counter with legit concerns they claim those concerns are lies. The irony is strong here.

  17.  @dixonyamowthe1297  , many won't save money. Many pay almost nothing in healthcare but will pay more in taxes.

  18.  Harry Mann Jr  , I love the "save money" line. As if the government has done a great job in the past in saving money. Also, it is saying that government does a better job with my money than I do. To add, they never bring up quality or access in their argument. Sure we may save money, but quality and access will drop like they do in other nations.

  19.  @2727rogers  , what if you don't need surgery in your life? There are a lot of people who never use healthcare. And how in the long run will I save money? I can take the money I have now, invest it, and have even more money

  20.  @2727rogers  , is it rare? Where is the math behind it?

  21.  @SgtLube818  , uh, so everyone gets cancer? Also, in the US we have higher cancer survival rates compare to other nations.

  22.  @IndianPrince04  , I am all for reforming the healthcare system. To me I will remove the payroll tax. Businesses pay employees with healthcare insurance as it is a tax free way to pay them. Removing the payroll tax will have employers paying with a higher wage as opposed to insurance. With that the individual can then pick the plan they want, have insurance companies compete so prices will drop and coverage will improve, and insurance will be actual insurance. A lot of healthcare can be paid for out of pocket. Instead we have a system created by government where we can't pick our coverage as we depend on our employer. A reason why I oppose M4A is because I feel government created the problem to begin with.

  24. 70% are volunteer.

  25.  @010O  , sure, but at the local level you have far more control of those programs. Besides, fire departments are far less complex than healthcare. The fact you can volunteer to be a fire fighter shows that. How many doctors are willing to volunteer?
    1
  26.  James Asper  , because the more local a government program is the more control you have over it. When a program is local you can see if government is spending your tax dollars they way you want. Also, the local community can manage the program the best way to suit their needs. It makes a huge difference.

  27.  @uzumakiangelus  , actually I am all for improving the healthcare system. The problem I has is that M4A is being pushed on misinformation and deception. Also, I have huge doubts if M4A will actually work. The federal government has a huge hand in mental health after the passage of the Community Mental Health Act. After that passage our mental healthcare became worse. It would behoove you to look deeper in this issue as opposed to just criticize those that have legit arguments against a policy.

  28.  @nathanielchieffallo4273  , I agree they work in small communities. I know small towns with no stop signs. This is why I support local governments. You get governments that serve the people. Not everyone needs a government program in their life. I am all for some sort of government healthcare system. I just feel it should be ran locally. A major problem I have with the far left is that they have no clue what other people desire. They just want to use the federal government to ram things down people's throats. Many communities don't need M4A. If you want a government ran healthcare system then establish it at your local level. Don't force others who don't want it to use it.

  29.  James Asper  , Kyle just did a video in how Congress has a low approval rating but people still vote in the same politicians. Why? Because people like their representative, not others.

  30.  @infjintegrityvsnarcissism7295  , sure, the government funds it. But again, it is local. The more local a program is the more control the people have over it. A local system means the people can manage it they way they seem fit. The number of people working more than one job has been dropping.

  31.  @infjintegrityvsnarcissism7295  , I wouldn't mind that. I actually support a state run public option if a state wants to do that.

  32.  @joshuasalem5022  , just because the government funds it doesn't mean that the healthcare is adequate. Also, you don't need government to provide things to you. 70% of fire fighters are volunteer. Also, fire departments are ran and funded locally. And fire departments are much cheaper and far less complex compared to healthcare.
