Every other OECD country is different than ours for one. None of them take in as many immigrants, none of them are as large by population, none of them have as much diversity as the USA does. You make a claim "there is virtually no evidence that the health system in the US would be better if there was less Government involvement." which is a quite ironic statement considering you are making a claim of no evidence while providing no evidence to support this position. The fact is there is plenty of evidence, just look at every government program ever. They always expand beyond their mandate, inflate prices because the customer doesn't care and its just "free money" to them that the public foots the bill for, then the prices get more and more bloated as the middle men like insurance agencies, banks, and lawyers start working their way in.

The marketplace is cutthroat. That means if one organization is full of worms, people can go to the more efficient worm free version because it provides better service at a lower cost. Unfortunately with government regulations a system of protectionism and rent seeking is set up for these companies which literally prevents competition and protects their monopolistic profiteering stranglehold. Don't make the mistake of thinking governments and corporations are different entities. While technically they are, largely they exist to serve each other in practice. This is why they need to be kept separate at all cost. I am not against regulation necessarily depending on how it is constructed, but this whole concept of government subsidy is a failure from the word go.

Finally, most important of all, all of these other dithering excuses aside, IT IS NOT THE US GOVERNMENTS MANDATE to provide you with anything other than what is explicitly mandated in the constitution. Again this goes back to the rights versus commodity arguments. You have a right to life, you do not have a right to mandate others spend years getting very expensive training to treat you for free just like you don't have a right to food unless you work for it. You have a right to liberty, but if your liberty infringes on the liberty of another, your right ends there. You have the 2nd amendment right to protect yourself with a firearm, you do not have a right to a free firearm. You have a right to have access to healthcare, you do not have a right to receive free healthcare.

Any time governments are allowed into these systems they inevitably destroy them. They add more and more bureaucracy that serves only to prevent actual competition and create systems of rent-seeking and protectionism for the huge mega-corporations. I argue that the current failures of our medical system are a DIRECT RESULT of GIVING government control over these issues, and attempting to subsidize them in the past that have failed, not the market economy itself. Much like people try to say "oh look the economy is failing we need more socialism!" when we have been introducing Socialist/Communist policy for many years which I argue is the actual cause of the failure these people championing more of the same claim to be able to save us from. Any time you create a system of dependence on what are supposed to be public servants, they now have leverage and therefore control over the population, transforming you into the servant of it and not vice versa.




We are somewhere on the second half of this chart.

The Talmud is one of the most racist supremacist books ever written.

Exactly my point.

I didn't say anything about Sean Hannity. I don't even watch Fox. I don't even watch TV. This is all you just crafting a false equivalency in your mind so you can pretend one side is just as bad as the other therefor any opposing claims have just as much validity as my own. No. This is not how reality works. I did ONE thing, and that was objectively dismantle your shit source, and the shit misleading methodology used to collect it. You could ask everyone if they want free ponies I bet you that most people would agree, but then when it comes to how to actually produce over 350 million ponies, house, feed, and medically treat them, suddenly the question becomes more complicated now doesn't it? Ponies are nice things too, just as long as some one else has to feed and board them. The green new deal would be a nice thing, except for the fact it is not at all viable in anything but the mind of Captain Postmodern.

I don't need to make a philosophical argument to show it, I need to make it to point out these knee jerk reactions will not only make the problem worse, they will cause SO many more issues people have no concept of. People like to run around saying things like "healthcare is a right", and it simply can not be, because in order for some one to have that right you have to help yourself to the rights of others, be it time or resources. That is not how rights work.

IMO we need to strangle the insurance industry for starters, they along with the litigious nature of this nations laws are the primary culprits. These systems were abused until systems of protectionism were created, then those protective systems themselves became the systematic abuse. You will often find doctors who run a cash only practice will charge considerably less because of the removal of all of these compliance and documentation issues for example. Doctors spend more time doing paperwork than anything else, and that is retarded. Giving the government more power is not a solution because it is what got us here today.

Healthcare is a commodity, not a right, and it is simple to prove. You have a right to travel, you have a right to defend yourself, you have a right to free speech. You do not have a right to the time and resources of others. In order to make healthcare a right you literally have to take time and resources from others by force, ie you take rights from some to give rights to others. The US healthcare system is broken, but if you can afford it you can get some of the best healthcare in the world right away, not 6 months after you get a referral which you waited another 6 months to get.

A lot of people in both parties are about to be exposed, tried, and convicted.

Who gets to decide what "junk" is? This is very subjective, again going back to my point of judging features/offerings by the standard of the value they have for you personally only. Pointing out problems is easy, finding a viable solution that doesn't just create more problems is not so much. Perhaps what we need is a marketplace section which is limited to allow further ranked up members only to post there to escape the noise? This way at least you could see more legitimate/useful offerings and the nickel and dime stuff from the noobs is segregated to its own area where it can still be seen but will have less exposure comparatively.



Just continually removing features is not going to stop ignorant people form getting robbed. Self moderated threads/locking serve legitimate purposes of being able to control what is essentially a sales ad, not a discussion.

The self moderated threads were largely put in to place FOR the marketplace section because some users would use them to harass/troll people trying to trade legitimately. The logic being a sales ad does not necessarily need to be a conversation, and any fraudulent activity can be dealt with by rating, posting in scam/rep, or reporting forum abuses. The same goes for locking threads. It is a mistake to consider only the features valuable to you personally as the only valuable features, because that kind of thinking works both ways. I would suggest a rank requirement to post any digital goods. The only problem is, as it is now, people will try to post digital goods in other sections to get around this mess. About 80% of the posts I report in the goods section is stuff that belongs in digital goods currently, so there will be blow back to other sections as a direct result.

I think this member would be a valuable contributor as a merit source as they are otherwise.

Is that why he removed several posts which were literally nothing more than links and titles from reputable news outlets?

Tim Pool runs down some recent history as far as who instigated what violence when:

It is also a valid point to mention that Muller has been in office and over seen some VERY shady shit during his watch. He among others behind this organized attack was a desperate attempt to cover their own asses. Muller is right in the middle of it.

They have done 10 times this and more. You will see how the rest of the nation responds to this coup attempt. I know this because I have been monitoring their illicit activities since about as long as I was able to comprehend politics as a child. They are part of a long standing criminal cartel responsible for unspeakable crimes, and they are about to see justice. You have fun playing with your Muller shaped Ouija board interpreting the narrative as best serves your delusions. Down deep you know you are wrong but your ego will not let you admit how badly you have been duped. You choose to remain in that painful state of cognitive dissonance as long as you want, you are only hurting yourself at this point. Real justice will soon be served and you are going to have to learn to cope with reality sooner or later.

That is exactly what I am here for, to find a way to function with the conflicting personalities myself in order to organize a solution which will allow ego to be put aside to result in a maximally beneficial solution for all involved parties.

They will be. That is exactly why they are so desperate to cover this all up.

For now I will have to operate on a case by case basis. Of course I would only mediate activities legal within the USA. That is my hope, to be able to be a trusted reliable neutral party to step by step break down the conflict and offer potential resolutions. This could either be binding or non-binding depending on participant preferences. IE they can leave me to make the final decision (binding), choose from my proposed solutions, or even ignore them completely (non-binding). The cost would be largely proportional to the amount of time that would be spent working out these details. If anyone is currently having a dispute they wish to resolve feel free to PM me to discuss solutions.
