I became a single payer system when I realized at age 10 that it wasn't already in the US. And realized why our system is so fucked up compared to Germany. Even Canada has better clinics and hospitals, and is much cheaper.
We pay up more than double just for coverage which in other countries is just tax that's half our premium costs often even less, and no deductibles nor copays. And the services like in Japan are excellent.
A Japanese friend broke his wrist while visiting here, and he laughed about how antiquated our clinics, that we had a 1950's technology and old x-ray machine, while their clinics have ultra sound, MRI, and even CAT scans in their clinics. And when he went back, he had to have is wrist re-broken and recast because it was set wrong here in the states.
I continue to get my Rx from Germany; its not an extreme necessity Rx cold sore outbreaks, but only thing that helps. I get two versions of the antiviral same price to 1 filling of 20 pills in the US $160, I get 300 pills mix of 2 versions for the same price a little over 1 year supply; and I get choice, 2 types; one is better if I catch the symptoms early, and the other is better if catch the symptoms late. Here, I get one or the other at any given time. And max filling is 20 pills which may treat 2 outbreaks before having to refill.
If I had to get other Rx I would get it from Germany or elsewhere.
US is becoming among the worst places to live in.

First off, culpability to gun manufacturers on what someone else uses the gun for can only be assigned if the gun maker sales the gun directly to the person if they fail to do background checks. Most manufacturers don't sell directly to buyers, they sell to retailers. A person who uses a car to kill a bunch of people, there is no culpability on the car maker. Unless a car malfunctions, defects, like a gun defect that explodes in the holster or explodes upon firing the weapon, then they could be culpable for making a defective product. The gun that shoots and hits its target is exactly what proposition the company is making, there's no defect, no culpability.
A law that would assign culpability where there isn't any would not be held up in court, its not constitutional nor in process or nor in federal constitution; specifically stated in the prohibition on corruption of blood where your actions of your blood relatives cannot be held against you just because you're related to them; their actions are their own deeds. It's considered illogical, as it is, to make someone or entity culpable for others' actions. And the only culpability would be if they sold it directly to a person without following the law such as ensuring and passing a background investigation, or if the weapon malfunctions, such as explodes or fires when it shouldn't or doesn't fire when it should.

I think lots of minorities are spooked by Trump or Cruz so they think the safe bet is Hillary. Unfortunately, I think if it's Trump as the GOP nominee, voting for Hillary is the most unsafe. She doesn't excite the base at all, and she even turns many off.
We'll see. Trump is a lunatic and could potentially get more independents to go democrat. But I doubt it. Many I hear say they'd rather vote Bernie, but if it's Hillary vs Trump, they'll vote Trump.
Which doesn't look good. The polls show too that Bernie outdoes both Cruz and Trump compared to Hillary. So they're actually, likely unaware, doing themselves harm. But what's knew. Has been happening for the past 40 years now. Hence why we're the only major 1st world developed country without universal single payer for all citizens, no more reduced or 0 tuition for higher education, and shattered pension retirement system as most companies have done away with defined pensions for the gimmick casino of a 401K instead with even lower wages making it even more difficult to put meaningful amount into a 401K account, just doing the usual 4% matching doesn't provide you with anything near most defined pensions paid out, and of course the ridiculous trade agreements with various countries some are often under tyrannical and/or corrupt control of their aristocracy with little to no labor protection, environmental protection, or any quality inspections, trading with essentially slave economies with our economy just causes a race to the bottom eventual equilibrium; that's something effecting some to a lesser degree than others all developed 1st world countries; but several have strong trade standards like Germany France, Sweden, Japan, to avoid to heavily the hit on the race to the bottom, but they're still being effected.

Funny thing is the opposite for my dad, he can't stand the fat fuck on dead AM radio as he calls him, and various overt propaganda on stations like Fox. Back in 2003 he affirmed to me something I said in passing that the Fox so called news station seemed like an advertisement for GW Bush. He has long since cut the cable, and only has radio for news. So you would think talk radio would have turned him right, but it just pisses him off so he simply doesn't listen to the news very often.
I just recently heard someone at work made a smart ass comment about Trump to his boss, my boss too now, after the election of Trump. I guess my boss is a hardcore right winger, and he made the comment prior that "now we have someone who won't take vacation while in office." Man was he wrong, Trump has done nothing but take vacations. The coworker said "As if GW didn't take vacations." It enraged my boss so much, he pushed and tackled my coworker. He later apologized to the worker, and treats him more than well. And I like my boss. He's a good guy, hard working and very fair. He's in his 60's.
It's just like a cult. It has whipped otherwise good people into a weird ass frenzy of anger. Weirdest shit ever.
I remember when that fat ass Rush had a tv show. I was watching it, my dad came home from work, and we watched a little, he then walked told me you should probably turn that trash off. He began to even cut back on listening to the radio, he asked me if I ever heard of this bloated gas ball Alex Jones... I really hadn't, just new he was a nut. My dad just said they're putting nothing but trash on radio and tv, i just can't listen to that nonsense.
He's not a saint, he believes in some weird ass conspiracies about the elites wanting to make everyone poor, and at some point diminish the population by some means.
But the effect either way is to just anger older people.
