    capitalism has a natural rate of unemployment; nobody is saying Labor is worse off with that cost of living adjustment. And, in the long run, higher paid labor pays more in taxes and creates more in demand.

    No I haven't.

    I've written multiple times that in a single payer government run program, the government will define what medical care will look like, and Doctors and Hospitals will then provide what ever care the government allows.

    That's a fact. Look at any government run healthcare program around the world. I have never said some government employee is going to put band aid on, or set a broken leg.

    I don't understand what you're struggling with.

    Yes, you did...
    I don't believe the Federal Government should ever be in charge of providing medical care to the citizens of the US.”

    Obviously, you misunderstood what I wrote. I've made it clear multiple time now. Are you still in a state of confusion?

    No it isn't.

    In fact, Dental, Vision, Hearing is considered Out of Pocket uncovered expenses.

    No not at all.....as I think of leftists as aberration of what is normal. LMAO.

    More important is you getting control of your lil feelings. As you aren't good at playing the game of disrespect. Try hanging out with some bruthas for once in your life. So you can present at the minimum an adequate game.

    Yes that is what economists are saying. Loss of hours, loss of jobs. Loss of money. Even the Leftist Vice news reported on it.

    Still more important is the perception that the Democrats have. As you can tell by that link the left knows the Demos can't get away from that perception. Nor can their cult following.

    Capitalism has a natural rate of unemployment. It is natural for capitalism to adjust to any immediate market based metrics.

    Nope. It’s very clear what you posted. Maybe in your mind you meant something else but it’s not what you posted.

    It seems to me that both the Republicans and the democrats can't handle running this country. Rampant greed and self interest, combined with lack of ability, and we're stranded with a pool of inept and stupid politicians on both sides. It is time for them to step aside and let the younger generation step in. The only question is, will that work with a two party system, or is it time to implement a parliamentary system transition...

    With a popular vote, there would be no United States of America. No state would join knowing that they would have no chance of deciding who would rule over them. This President wasn't elected against the will of the people. Just against 2 and a half less of the country. What you lost in electing a President, you gain in many more Congressmen.

    It's one elected office we're talking about, and everyone's vote would finally count in that election. It is sickening what has happened under the Electoral College and the two parties, with so many voters being disenfranchised if they do not happen to live in a swing state. Republicans voting in California might as well not be voting, and Democrats voting in most flyover states likewise.

    Also, even with the Electoral College, most states have little power over who gets elected. Again, it tends to come down to swing states; the others are "safe" and matter little in the campaigns. The only real change we're talking about here is making sure every vote counts when it comes to the presidential election. Both parties would change how they campaign in response to this change, too, because suddenly every demographic in every state would be at play. Republicans could no longer afford to focus just on angry straight white males with less than a four-year college degree, and Democrats could no longer afford to focus on coastal liberals and angry minorities. Most importantly, the President would better represent all American people, because the President would finally be elected by the American people, not by an artificial system based loosely on the actual results of the election.

    Democracy is a terrible form of government - no informed, rational person would ever want to live in a democracy.

    Those advocating for democracy are ignorant fools.

    Great point. My vote has literally never counted in presidential elections given that I live in MA where the Dem candidate has always won the state in my voting lifetime.

    Only in your mind. Which lacked that info about the Demos and their Socialist following. So getting that wrong doesn't help you with any other thought concepts with your assuming. Although, one day.....you just might surprise people and actually know what you are talking about. That being said.....It wasn't this day or the day before.

    At least now you can play like BO the peep and hope that the day will come and you will know what you are talking about.
