Hawk if our Nominate button worked, that post would have been nominated.

The fact is we are talking about a man here that is at least exhibiting the symptoms of Alzhiemers. Which it won't likely matter when he is impeached on an obstructing justice charge sometime in 2019 after the Dems take control of Congress next year if we live that long.

Weren't we supposed to die because of the embassy being moved to Jerusalem?

What about talking tough to NK? Oh yeah - they are now in direct talks with SK.

Tax reform?

Net Neutrality?

Do you guys ever get tired of being drama queens?

We really need socialized medicine.

Not like it has anything to do with the Tories' rigid austerity-fueled attempts to kill NHS or anything ...

Only downside is "thus" is already an adverb, making "thusly" both an incorrect hyper-correction and hella redundant—so I'm assuming we have to disregard the entire post now?

Something as complicated as socialized healthcare will have a myriad of reasons why there are problems. Thats the exact reason why its not a good decision.

When a writer from the NYT is effectively defending Trump you know that book is a load of crap.

But by all means - You guys eat this up. Like pigs at a trough.

For-profit healthcare is a much worse "decision".

I guess it depends on your definition of 'works' but I believe for-profit works as the people who are insured do not have to be delayed for basic care.

Single-payer is far less complicated than a system like ours. That's one of its virtues.

And yet they can't provide basic care for their dependents.

Indeed.

It "works" for the people who are insured—which tends to be a whole lot less than the sum-total of society.

I'm a good example. I was gainfully employed post-college, until re-entering academia this summer, and was never able to afford health insurance, pre- or post-ACA—though at least in the post-ACA climate I was able to get back on my parents' insurance until age-26. I do however have access to affordable medical care now, for the first time in a half-decade, thanks to Montana's fairly robust Medicaid expansion.

Single-payer systems certainly can when they aren't bled dry by their own austerity-crazed government. Public transportation is suffering the same right now in the UK, for the same reasons.

Those measures are taken by responsible individuals in response to current events. If the issue is that the government budget can't handle socialized healthcare then maybe healthcare run by the government is too expensive in relation to revenue generation. You can't keep throwing money at a problem. Our worsening education system is a great example of that.

By "responsible" you mean enriching the oligarchy.

Sure. If you want to continue with your Marxist views that have never been successfully implemented or resulted in less than tens of millions of deaths.

There’s cheering in certain sectors that the economy created

2.055 million jobs in 2017. Those people lamented the slow

pace of an economy

that created 2.24 million jobs in 2016.

You continue to post things that don't make sense when you have just an inkling of financial literacy. Continue to post your nonsense. Its not working anymore with the American people. Trumps popularity will continue to grow and dolts like you will be left in the dust.
