No jobs? Seems like they are doing okay hosting terrorist training camps, shaking down costal pirates and other under the radar activities. At least I'm not hearing reports of mass starvation... ala' Ethiopia in the 80's. Which I guess sorta brings me back to my point about government.

I'm curious Bubs... you keep harkening back to the days where there was "no government" and speak as if it was a magical time. I've studied a little history and I'm aware of no such time or place in the history of mankind. Are you referencing a specific model you'd like to see put in place, or is this more of you complaining that government doesn't live up to some a figment of your imagination kinda thing?

Show me my “no government” post. And arenʻt you of the mindset that government is not currently living up to some figment of your imagination.....kinda thing?

But that's sort of what draws people to him. The big brother is going to take care of you message really sells.
I just think some people are just naturally weaker and more afraid and get a sense of comfort from the message.

Government makes a lot of sub par promises.

And of course from here it went to me asking as compared to what. To which you answered non-government promises. Which brings us back here to the top of this post. Or to paraphrase Teddy Roosevelt; if you're going to complain, without offering an explanation of how you'd like it to work... is called whinnying.

I'm happy to circle back around and explain it again-

Well... healthcare is kind of funny. In that the Europeans for example tend to have heavily regulated healthcare markets. And not only do they pay less, but they live as long and in survey after survey rate as living happier lives then Americans. Cheaper and happier... wow I like the sound of that.

Now remind me again Bubs, what was your plan? Go back to the pre-Obamacare days where healthcare costs was the #1 cause of personal bankruptcy in America? Yikes

I had my first annual physical in about 15 years today. Since my Medicare is now being delivered through an HMO, it cost me nothing, including blood tests, lung capacity test, and 2 chest x-rays. I also got caught up on immunizations (2 shots - tetanus-diphtheria-pertussis and pneumonia).

People have to have access to healthcare. I'm all about the free market because most of the time it works better.
But sometimes, it don't. And in those cases I change my mind and look for a better way.

Economics is about making people's lives better. It's not a religion...

If you live long enough it's almost free. The key is living through all those years when you can't afford it.

Healthcare is kinda funny in it that people tend to think Health Insurance is the same thing.

Ocasio-Cortez Implies Pelosi Is Racist For Singling Out ‘Newly Elected Women Of Color’

New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez implied Wednesday that Nancy Pelosi is racist and said the House speaker has been “disrespectful” toward “newly elected women of color” in Congress.

Ocasio-Cortez addressed in an interview with The Washington Post the growing rift between Pelosi and the progressive wing of the Democratic Party.
Pelosi was quoted in a New York Times article on July 6 taking a thinly veiled shot at Ocasio-Cortez and several other freshman Democrats who voted against a bill to help migrants at the border.

“All these people have their public whatever and their Twitter world, but they didn’t have any following,” Pelosi said to The Times’ Maureen Dowd. “They’re four people and that’s how many votes they got.” (RELATED: Pelosi Speaks Out On Swipe At Ocasio-Cortez)

Tucker Carlson responded Wednesday night to Minnesota Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar’s characterization of the Fox News host as a “racist fool,” calling the charge a “hustle” and blaming the American left, which stokes “the resentment of new arrivals and turns them into grievance-mongers.”

“Not gonna lie, it’s kinda fun watching a racist fool like this weeping about my presence in Congress,” Omar wrote Tuesday night via Twitter. “No lies will stamp out my love for this country or my resolve to make our union more perfect. They will just have to get used to calling me Congresswoman!”
