Those people have been oxygen-deprived for years. Cut them a break.

Brought to you by pharma. Gotta keep competition at bay.
And if you pay for insurance you are paying a very hefty private tax.
Freedom to sell garbage has it’s consequences.
And what of China’s healthcare system?
Again, welcome to capitalism.
More like rule by allof those wholesome corporations bribing politicians. Why dey do dat?
it is the corporations who own politicians who are in control.
And who benefited? Big business, pharma, etc.
And some people advocate more for this system. Wild
Bwahahaha…they come out on top of the majority of metrics. But I know, you know a guy…
No, you could just buy them overpriced insurance to hopefully take care of that.
More losers than winners.
Have you ever suggested a viable solution/alternative? No.
A total fantasy. Not dealing in reality. But you keep believing in this trash. D-bag.
Practically it has oligopolies built into the system.
But you do support the military, firemen etc.?
Is this why the rest of the industrialized world pays about half of what we do?
Welcome to Capitalism!
No, fuck no. Without the perverse profit motive, choices wouldn’t be blocked by the bought and paid for FDA to keep up pharma profits because another better, less expensive treatment is trying to make it to market. But when profits are interfered with, freedom of choice is no longer.
Been posting for over a year now. WTF, are you talking about?
Yes, I agree. When it’s more profitable, self-checkouts will replace all workers.
Yes. All brought to us by the freedom to sell products that are harmful to one’s health. In other countries you have to prove what you are selling is safe. In 'merica the public has the burden of proving it’s unsafe.
YOU are ridiculous. Please leave.
If A.I. would take over. Would the jobs created by A.I. outweigh the jobs it can take?
Wonder why this isn’t as prevalent in other countries? Maybe they don’t have the “freedom” to choose garbage like we do. In Europe there are things you are not allowed to sell because of it’s deleterious effects on human health. Oh no! What a gestapo they have over there. But better health, typically speaking.
Went to college. I have a degree. But in the end, who cares. If you are fired on the basis of lie how does that qualify one as a failure?
No, but you can be this blind.
And you just accept the way things are and just throw your hands up. What an inspiration.
If laws were enforced and the consequences of breaking them were a deterrent, thi would be much easier. But since corporations buy people they can rig the game to their advantage.
so created 10s of thousands of jobs.
And if people didn’t demand particular products sold by Amazon, where would those jobs be?
I don’t believe in corporate bailouts.
But capitalism does. Yeah, I know it doesn’t say so but that is how it works in a practical manner.
Cool story, that’s on them.
So nothing should be done about it or is this just another, good luck!
It’s used by you to deflect.
Ahhhhh no.
Clearly you are good at self-reflection.
More so than you, who just swallows the propaganda with a smile on your face.
If I post an article by the Wall Street Journal about how amazing capitalism is would you even read it?
Maybe. I’m a big fan of fiction. But one can see the practical way it works for most. It doesn’t.
Or they just don’t go to the doctor
Or maybe their insurance doesn’t cover it and they’re afraid of the cost. Hard to believe in our for-profit “healthcare” system, I know.
People would die waiting for care here if we had single-payer. It is not special, clown.
10’s of thousands, clown?
I have seen it, but mkay…
No you haven’t, mkay.
“Merchants of death”. You’re such a fucking moron.
Truth sometimes hurts doesn’t it. Difficult to come to terms with the fact that you support a system that profits from suffering and death.
You don’t and have never understood the difference between an opinion piece (what you normally post) and what a study is.
Well since you do, where are all the “studies” that measure outcomes showing how great the U.S. “healthcare” system is?
It’s PROTECTION from financial ruin. Jesus H Christ…
Utter ignorance highlighted by yourself. What a rube.
They pair their doctors peanuts. I guess it’s okay to not pay them “a living wage” because it’s the system you like. Clown as usual.
Has absolutely nothing to do with that line I posted.
Sure thing guy that has zero education or understanding in economics.
You sure like to project, don’t you?
And how doesn’t it? It is one of the most popular structures of a corporation.
Yes they do. Break out of your bubble of corporate indoctrination and take a look around. Do some research.
The people with money and power are there for a reason. Your illusion of revolt and fighting the system is just that - an illusion,
You will never win.
You fight for what is right NOT because you will win.
Bwahahaha…they come out on top of the majority of metrics. But I know, you know a guy…
I have actually been there numerous times and experienced it.
Have you?
No, you could just buy them overpriced insurance to hopefully take care of that.
No, I would just pay for it and get top notch care from the best physicians like I already do.
Sucks to suck like you.
You fight for what is right NOT because you will win.
No, that is stupid.
You fight always to WIN or else you are even dumber than I thought.
No…he is actually as dumb as you think he is
Brought to you by pharma. Gotta keep competition at bay.
Brought to you by government.
And if you pay for insurance you are paying a very hefty private tax.
Companies cover significant if not the majority of premiums.
Freedom to sell garbage has it’s consequences.
Yes as does consumer choices.
And what of China’s healthcare system?
What about it? The system for the Uyghurs, those in extreme poverty, or the party elite?
Again, welcome to capitalism.
That’s not even remotely because of capitalism. College tuition is inflated for multiple reasons not least of which is government involvement.
More like rule by allof those wholesome corporations bribing politicians. Why dey do dat?
I’m going to assume you had a stroke while typing this.
it is the corporations who own politicians who are in control.
Let’s assume this is true, how would giving politicians owned by corporations more control solve the problem?
And who benefited? Big business, pharma, etc.
Jesus… I already broke this down so a child could understand, but I will try and break it down even easier for you.
Big business pays corrupt politicians for favorable treatment → COVID spreads → government gets heavily involved → mandates + Warp Speed + shut downs (mom and pops killed off in the thousands) → Big companies (Amazon, Pfizer, etc…) benefit everyone else does not.
Zep solution: More of the above.
Unbelievable.
More losers than winners.
Not even remotely true.
Have you ever suggested a viable solution/alternative? No.
Doofus, I literally offered my solution directly below this.
A total fantasy. Not dealing in reality. But you keep believing in this trash. D-bag.
Sure, fuckface.
Practically it has oligopolies built into the system.
Well, we have this thing called anti-trust law that has existed since the late 1800s.
But you do support the military, firemen etc.?
I support the military being a government institution because it’s an agreed upon responsibility codified in the US Constitution and I don’t want civilians conducting war. It’s not because I think the government does it better.
Firemen are state and local or volunteer and squarely fall under the 10th amendment.
Is this why the rest of the industrialized world pays about half of what we do?
We’ve been over this multiple times. If they pay less, which is not as cut and dry as you make it seem, it’s because of:
Welcome to Capitalism!
That isn’t capitalism you troglodyte.
Without the perverse profit motive, choices wouldn’t be blocked by the bought and paid for FDA to keep up pharma profits because another better, less expensive treatment is trying to make it to market. But when profits are interfered with, freedom of choice is no longer.
The FDA would absolutely block treatment options under single-payer. You are in complete denial. Every single payer system in the world limits treatment option more than we do. Every single one.
Been posting for over a year now. WTF, are you talking about?
We all know you’re Zep.
Yes. All brought to us by the freedom to sell products that are harmful to one’s health.
You misspelled consumer choices.
In other countries you have to prove what you are selling is safe. In 'merica the public has the burden of proving it’s unsafe.
You want more government intervention, single-payer, while also complaining the federal bureaucracy aka the FOOD and DRUG ADMINISTRATION doesn’t ensure products sold are safe for consumption.
I’m begging you, spend five fucking minutes thinking about this logical inconsistency, please.
YOU are ridiculous.
Sure, it’s me…
Please leave.
Fuck off.
Went to college. I have a degree.
Bahahahahahahahahaha. Absolutely no one believes this.
And you just accept the way things are and just throw your hands up. What an inspiration.
You’re doing a splendid job combating human greed trading fiat currency for a living.
If laws were enforced and the consequences of breaking them were a deterrent, thi would be much easier. But since corporations buy people they can rig the game to their advantage.
You aught to be mad at the ones taking the supposed bribes at least as much if not more so than the ones doing the bribing.
And if people didn’t demand particular products sold by Amazon, where would those jobs be?
They wouldn’t exist. I literally just explained this. Fuck, man.
But capitalism does. Yeah, I know it doesn’t say so but that is how it works in a practical manner.
No, a bastardized version of it does. One that requires extensive government intervention in the market, which is the exact opposite of what capitalism is.
So nothing should be done about it or is this just another, good luck!
What do you propose be done about human corruption and greed?
More so than you, who just swallows the propaganda with a smile on your face.
You flip-flopped your whole world view after losings your minimum wage job and watching a YouTube video, gtfo.
Maybe. I’m a big fan of fiction.
Point proven.
Or maybe their insurance doesn’t cover it and they’re afraid of the cost. Hard to believe in our for-profit “healthcare” system, I know.
I said this was a possibility, but you can’t admit that what I said is also a possibility because your ideology doesn’t allow it.
10’s of thousands, clown?
It’s a matter of scale you fucking doofus.
Truth sometimes hurts doesn’t it.
You wouldn’t know as you’re allergic to the truth.
Difficult to come to terms with the fact that you support a system that profits from suffering and death.
Canada has a euthanasia program they’re hoping to expand to cut costs.
Well since you do, where are all the “studies” that measure outcomes showing how great the U.S. “healthcare” system is?
Point to the post where I made this claim? You keep stating “studies” show the UK system is better by most “metrics”. You are required to prove your claim. That’s how this works.
In before, “you might not have said this explicitly, but you implied it with your posts”.
Utter ignorance highlighted by yourself.
We can add bankruptcy law to the ever expanding list of things you know nothing about.
Has absolutely nothing to do with that line I posted.
“Have you not read about the government run healthcare in the U.K. and how it comes out on top of most of the metrics being measured.”
If cost is a metric than the fact that they pay their doctors poor wages absolutely does have something to do with what you posted.
You sure like to project, don’t you?
How is it a projection when I have education and years of experience in the field?
And how doesn’t it?
Got it, you can’t answer because you’re a doofus. Has to ask a question to deflect, which is exactly what I said you do and you denied it.
It is one of the most popular structures of a corporation.
That doesn’t make it a “standard” corporation. There is no such thing as a standard corporation. Words fucking matter.
And, the only reason I brought it up is because you didn’t learn your “plain corporation” lesson, Zep.
Yes they do.
If co-ops are so much better more than 0.1% of businesses would organize as co-ops. It’s really that simple.
Do some research.
Drowning in irony.
Me: BS & MS in accounting, certified management accountant, 20+ years of experience accounting/finance for government, not-for-profit (in healthcare lol), c-corps, and an LLC.
You: Failed bartender and avid YouTuber watcher
I’ve always wanted to ask a supporter of this brain dead “theory” that there is infinite debt demand: what do you do for a living?

What an indoctrinated rube.
I watch fringe lunatics on YouTube too!

He’s supposedly a retail currency trader. I have my doubts.
Wanted to highlight one of your first posts:
There’s a reason the combined AUM of those economists is $0. Nobody can take that seriously. OK, let’s assume the US doesn’t default (we’ll pretend the unfunded liabilities >4x the national debt don’t exist either). There is still a crowding out impact from increased Treasury issuance used to plug the delta between expenditures and receipts. There is finite demand for debt, and in order to compete with Treasuries this increases the WACC of private business. Fewer projects have an expected positive after-tax ROIC-WACC spread and fewer are undertaken. The productive process becomes less roundabout and contracts, projects that require the scarcest factor of production (labor) are now gone, unemployment rises and the output of goods and services falls. But don’t worry, there’s been no formal default so according to MMT nonsense there are not massive consequences.
He understood exactly none of this. He has no idea what you even mean by “the delta” or WACC. Not a single clue; yet, here we are months later… This thread is something else.
*He has no idea what AUM means. Zero clue.
What an indoctrinated rube.
Exactly.
