Don’t care as I paid into this system my entire working life. Whether you believe it or not makes no difference.
Is my statement true or false?
Really? So you are paying for the garbage drugs by pharma but seek to deny people their choice of treatment. All so pharma can make more money. You must be so proud!
So where are all the clinical trials, in this country, for medicinal MJ? And what about all those clinical trials for opioids? What a Gold Standard.
Would you say that an industry that prolongs the suffering of others by keeping more effective and less expensive therapies good? Even the threat of death(opioid overdoses) doesn’t deter these scumbags. Is this what you call good?
Try a country that have higher socialist policies that aren’t being interfered with by the U.S. like 1 of the Scandinavian countries.
It may not be socialist, per se but has a stronger more robust social policy than the U.S.
Have already done so and it didn’t work very well. Sad that I would even have to start this. If this country wasn’t run for the elite this would be far less of a problem.
Wrong, obviously. I would have thought someone criticizing others for not being able to comprehend simple sentences would have been able to comprehend what I meant.
Social policy and socialism are not the same fucking thing.
The difference is that 1 type of stem cell work uses adult cells, and some types use embryonic, and the GOP has been very vocal about opposing anyone and everyone who even touches the embryonic side.
Not everyone is permanently stuck after developing a disease. That’s what insurance is for. Hedging against risk.
No. A poor lazy person is lazy. Which is what I said.
Lol what the shit does a credit score matter. That’s the issue with credit score. People think they matter far more than they do. What MATTERS is your ability to make money and repay a loan, along with subsequent proof you’ll be able to repay.
You lived a life where you were not financially successful and didn’t build any skills to show you’d be able to repay a large medical based loan (non asset based, so no repo option). Why in God’s name do you think you’re a safe bet?
Thats unfortunate. You did not, by chance, use the same approach to that as you do here, did you?
Because honestly, I and many others really do enjoy helping others, but not without conditions. I like helping disabled veterans. Aside from a familial and personal connection to it, I’ve found that on the whole its a great bunch of people to be around. They’re funny, interesting and really appreciative of the help. At the end of the day, a good time is had by all, and everybody feels better for it.
With as many horror stories as we hear about the VA system, in the past 30 years my brother has experienced marry a hiccup. He gets along great with the MDs and nurses, is compliant with his meds and any prescribed treatments, and probably most important- even with the difficulties his condition presents- he remains upbeat and generally pretty easy to be around.
Now I don’t know you in real life at all, just what you’ve presented here, but I don’t get even a hint of any of that from you here. You’ve fought with MDs and other pros, and have recently admitted to being non compliant with your treatment. You ask for help then dictate instructions for how you would like to receive it. Nothing works like that. Even with myself getting sober, it had to be an earnest and simple plea for help. When I did that, I was almost immediately surrounded by more and better people than I could have imagined, and returned the favor with gratitude and appreciation for their efforts by doing the same for others.
Try not to take this as criticism, because it isn’t intended to be. Its just my observations of what you’ve presented here and what I’ve experienced in life.

Then you do acknowledge that there are actual freeloaders in society. Just like I don’t like the bail outs.
GOOD.
Get the government out.
No. You just don’t know how good you have it there despite being disabled. You want to drive away the very people who make this possible through creation of wealth and gleefully mock those like @anon50325502 who are already paying a high level of taxes because you think that your heroes are going to make him pay even more.
But you said it wasn’t.
While completely disregarding the point about politicians promising you the world without the ability to justify the costs just to buy your vote.
But it has not had the ability to spread systemically because you haven’t reached the point where your government is considered Big Government.
Topic: Previously brought up Marxist theory of “evil” business owners appropriating surplus value of worker’s labor.
Potential discussion: Risk taking; ROI, opportunity cost of reinvestment; etc
Answer: Big Pharma BAD!
HI BERNIE!
With higher economic freedom which means less government intervention in the market.
Then why are you so pro-socialism to the point where you are posting Marxist articles and supporting Chavez when there are no examples of socialist countries ever working in history and the countries whose models you are for are all capitalist economies?
Try again and learn which part works and which part doesn’t. Then try again. And again. Read a marketing book instead of the commie nonsense you keep parroting.
It’s the same with self-enterprise. But self-enterprise is much harder.
If you’re going to give up because it’s too hard, then at least appreciate the fact that there are people willing to do what you won’t do and that has resulted in you not having to beg on the streets.
Look at this loon’s CV before politics.
“Accomplishments” look like stuff you paste gold star stickers on and display them on your fridge with animal shaped magnets.
Acquired private funding for a startup company. Company now defunct.
Ends up a waitress with a talent for virtue signalling.
Wants to make everything free AND make it easy for illegal immigrants to attain citizenship.
Good luck.

What I said was right.
Just what I said.
The difference is that the vast majority of stem cells used are adult or umbilical cord, used after a healthy birth and are not controversial.
In fact, the research on adult cell lines has surpassed embryonic.
And what if YOU are?
A credit score is a numerical determination of your financial habits. It matters far more than you think. It is the first thing a lender looks at when determining a loan. Not to mention. this country keeps people from getting better by NOT allowing treatments, that they can’t compete with, from coming to the market. It ought to be against the law for the credit industry to destroy your credit through no fault of your own. When I contacted my 2 state senators neither 1 bothered to answer my question which gave me more reason to believe they are just corporate shills.

No, because I didn’t have people calling me lazy and insinuating I was a mooch.
Then, you’ve had good experiences. I have not. In my case the overwhelming majority of people turned out to be incredibly selfish.
How would YOU like to be denied treatment that has been used for 10 years in other countries with fabulous results?
Which I’m aware of. That doesn’t actually matter though, as the stigma of stem cells → abortion still exists and is its main opponent.
Then my insurance takes care of me. Pay attention.
Brah, I’m both college educated in finance AND worked at a mortgage company as its sole data analyst for 2 years. Nobody gives 2 shits about your credit score as long as its above 600.
The credit industry didn’t destroy your (or anyone’s) credit. The credit industry is a reflection of your credit worthiness. Don’t blame the people that assign grades when you’re the one answering all the questions.
And, you aren’t being DENIED treatment. It’s being DENIED that other people pay for it for you.

You don’t understand that it is the corporations that are at the heart of corruption. Do you think they hire all those lobbyists and donate all of that money for the fun of it? No it is done as a return on investment. Bribe the politicians and you can have them in your back pocket available to do your bidding.
Not as good as people in other industrialized countries. Should a person who has no choice to work be judged the same as others?
Is this same question asked about the wars? So if a policy is designed to help people then question it. If it is designed to kill people, brush it off.
Nice deflection as this doesn’t answer the question.
Is this true of the Scandinavian countries?
It is a damn shame that this even needs to be done in this country while other industrialized countries have social policies that prevent this from happening.
I don’t think anyone supporting her policies believes that they are free. Your side has had decades and the populations lives are just continuing to get worse. Seeing how she won with about 15 points and being outspent by over 15 to 1. It seems as though people want a real change. Now is that time, hopefully! If this comes to pass and the sky doesn’t fall your side will be scrambling with lies to comment on it’s success.
Good luck.
Take away the government’s powers to give them what they want and they can’t do anything other than be subject to the laws of supply and demand in the market.
It’s very basic common sense. I want my project to get approval in China. I can bribe redundant government regulators who offer their services and will approve of it while rejecting others who can’t afford to pay up. I have the money. Of course I’m going to make use of them. If these regulators don’t exist, I have to compete normally with everyone else.
This is Big Government leading to crony capitalism, which isn’t capitalism. It is a natural evolution of the black market system which develops during the real socialist era. It is what leads to monopolies and cartels which are always the result of Big Government.
You really need to stop reading dumb propaganda. I have lived this all my life and have had the same experience in 3 different countries with Big Government in Asia. There is no doubt that the shit going down in South America is the same. Unless you think people outside the US are simply inferior and more prone to corruption, there is no reason this will not occur in the US if you let it.
In what way? Not lending you money because you lack the means to pay it back is a logical decision, not a discriminatory one.
If the reason for any military action is unjustifiable, then it should be rejected just the same.
If a policy designed to help people is unsustainable and will lead to severe economic repercussions leading to people being even worse off than before, it is either a lie for the sake of buying goodwill in the short term, which would make the politician horribly manipulative and dishonest to take advantage of really impoverished people, or the politician simply doesn’t know this and is talking out of his/her ass, which would make him/her a snakeoil salesman who should be selling used cars.
Not a deflection. Your question was a deflection. You have deflected again by claiming I’m doing the deflecting.
Hi Bernie!
Yes. I posted the charts with the stats above for Sweden. You did not dispute them. You even posted one from the same source I used trying to invalidate them under the wrong idea that the ones I used were from a dishonest source.
Do you want to get things done or not? If you spend your time complaining instead of doing something constructive in your own interests, the only one losing out is you.
I don’t have a side. I am not from the US. Propaganda fed to me all my life has been from the LEFT despite you constantly insisting that I am a product of right wing indoctrination. If something works and I see measurable results, I support it. If it’s the opposite, I don’t. If there has to be a choice between piss and shit, I’ll just take piss.
I showed you her CV and qualifications. You go decide whether you are actually supporting someone competent who will be able to get things done or someone who is just very good at telling people what they want to hear.
