After increasing taxation to the highest level possible, simple changes in the delivery of services, such as eliminating some and restricting others, ensures that healthcare costs will stay within any arbitrary budget target.
Ravenously take money in, then be very, very stingy in metering it out.
Yes, and I am certain that the government will delegate administering this plan to private for profit companies who will make a boat load of money. Just like how the current Medicare system is run. I suppose they could have the government do the administration themselves, like the US "manages" the VA. That is a complete, inefficient nightmare. (Although they have improved, slightly, in recent years.) Given Bernie's aversion to big corporations and billionaires, I fear we would get the later solution. I guess that would mean job security for me, since we would still need a team of people to extract payment from the government. However, I work for a company that bills ambulance for municipalities. Many municipalities might just give up and just increase the sales and property taxes to cover those services. |

Sanders is no Trump. And he is almost only one who can defeat Trump. I like that he is seeking some changes. The system needs to be reformed. That's why Sanders is widely supported.
His changes are way too radical. It's going to be a tough pill to swallow for me to vote for this guy. In order to be a loyal Democrat, I'm just going to have to tell myself that only watered down versions of his proposals have a chance to be passed by Congress, even if the Democrats somehow manage to control both the Senate and the House. However, I don't see how this guy is going to go on to win. Perhaps loyal moderate Democrats such as myself are willing to swallow the pill, but I think many just won't vote. I also can't see many moderate independents or Republican "Never Trumpers" voting for him. My biggest problem with Bernie is if his proposals actually get passed into law, in the end, the Middle class is going to pay. I really can't see the top 1 % paying more taxes and that not translating into them cutting expenses by laying people off or passing off the loss in higher prices. Also, since the fat cats will be investing less in the stock market, my 401K plan isn't going to do so well, either. |

Techy saved me the trouble of making these trust thingy lists albeit I don't bother with them.
But if I did, I'd just use his suggested exclusion list land make them my inclusions, and his suggested inclusion list, vice versa .
easy peasy
I'm not certain that would be a good strategy because there are some people on Tecshare's list that I actually agree with. qwk
Lesbian Cow
LoyceV
DdmrDdmr
There may be others on the list that I would agree should be on my list, but I don't know enough about them. |

Another pathetic imbecile alt-account...
~snip
I'm curious if this new alt account was in any way inspired by me. Or if it is just a coincidence? And yes, the song is about me. |

Exactly. He has to be centre of the universe and everybody must bow down to him or else.....
Only a complete and utter imbecile would try to make himself centre of the universe where everything revolves around him. In his petty little mind what he says must happen and what he states must be adhered to.
You are just upset because you missed being able to buy his sole. A true relic. However, maybe you can figure out who the buyer was and obtain it from them for a bazoogle BTC. I heard that it has special powers. If you take a huge whiff, you will be granted infallibility for 24 hours. |

I certainly would hope that if some signature campaign decided to implement this plan that their quota and maximum is really low, like 5 or less a week. I can't imagine the quota being a high number such as 25 or more. I'm sure the staff would not be pleased with their increased workload of placing even more worthless threads into the trashcan. I can also see many threads being created in meta asking why their beloved threads have been deleted. Would they get credit for creating that thread too?

@TECSHARE
after thinking on this a bit, i'd prefer if you would omit my name from the list. i agree the trust system is a shitshow, but i don't want to be construed as fishing for inclusions, and i'd prefer to take a step back from all this meta/reputation drama anyway. the vitriolic bickering and the need to be right on the internet it brings out in me just stresses me out, and i really need to avoid that right now.
i'm just gonna low key stick to my guns re how i use the trust system, while also trying to distance myself from virtue signalling.
thanks, onward and upward.....
Well, it appears that you have been drafted by Tecshare. However, if you want to take a mental health break from this bickering, I totally understand. I recently took a break for quite a few months. However, I'm now back and revitalized. Fortunately for you, your main patron, Tecshare, is currently on the shit list of the powers that be. Sentiment can change, however. We shall see. |

Hmm, yesterday I saw this thread was locked. I thought the OP was satisfied with the well deserved praise. I really enjoy the trust list updates and all the other info Loyce provides in Loyce.club. You are really an asset to the forum politics. Keep up the good work. I just noticed that I have only been here a few days before you. Congratulations on making entry in this space during the horrible bear market of 2014 and 2015. So much has happened in the past five years. It feels like we have been involved for decades.

I've used Google to check a couple of your posts and they seem to copy word for word posts that appear on https://swiftcointalk.org/. Unfortunately, it appears that I have to log in to get to the particular posts. Since I don't have an account with them, I am not going to bother. You are most probably banned for plagiarism.Edit: this post of yours: The classical computers process data while the quantum computing is a new method to process data and solving problems that classical computing are not capable of.
There are some computations that was thought can not be possible but now becoming a matter of time by quantum computer.
As I read it, it was written that quantum computing that computer giants like google are working on now can not break blockchain and the underlying cryptography. But, with time, there can be more sophisticated ones that can be a threat to blockchain. So, they are a threat to blockchain and cryptocurrencies.
It will be better to create a quantum resistant layer to an existing blockchain protocol to increase its security or create a quantum resistant blockchain from scratch. They are the recent approaches.
Is an exact copy of the post found here: https://www.swiftcointalk.org/latest-bitcoin-news/quantum-computing-threat-in-relation-to-crypto-and-blockchain-technology/msg328243/#msg328243Further edit: It appears the post on swiftcoin came after the OPs post here. |

Just FYI, A.I.D.S does not cause your immune system to go into overdrive. It is the exact opposite. You may want to consult the Wikipedia page listing autoimmune diseases to find a disease that better fits your analogy. There are multitudes of them. For example, I think Rheumatoid arthritis probably better fits your above analogy. Noted. Thanks for more pointless topic sliding about usless side issues intended to cause maximum distraction from the actual content of the OP. Well, it was you that put AIDS in the mix. Quite frankly I think it has done absolutely zero to help bolster your case. I much prefer the clown analogies. At least that analogy is good for a chuckle while still being rather insulting to your adversaries. Plus it has the bonus effect of plaguing your adversaries with annoying earworms.  |

The road to hell is paved with good intentions. Your posts aren't A.I.D.S., your subjective use of trust ratings are. Like the A.I.D.S. virus, trust police are like an over active immune system causing the body to attack its own healthy cells.
You don't align with any of these cliques, you just have most of them in your trust list and share most of the same inclusions right? Requiring evidence is not a "unilateral solution", it is a very simple basic standard, one that is required for any rational justice system.
Censorship? What the fuck are you even talking about? You know what fosters censorship? When people can just make up any excuse they like to use the trust system as a tool to punish people who say things they don't like, and they never have to prove anything.
You aren't thrashing about pulling various justifications out of your ass here? You could have fooled me.

WO brothers,
I feel dirty, and traitor of the Gang.
I dismissed my hat for a mere 45 USD/week.
Sorry, something changed in Fillippone life and I need to keep staking sats!
I will wear back the hat on every possible occasion.
Don't feel bad. I had to do the same thing. We will have our hats back on in no time. Also, since the halving is coming up, who knows what the 45 USD in BTC will be worth if we HODL it, in the near future. I am certain in a few month, someone will have to be putting together the 100k party. |

Contract laws vary country to country. Exactly whose contract law are we supposed to follow over the internet?
The law in any of the jurisdictions where either party resides, I believe. Perhaps it wouldn't be worth the time and expense to actually seek legal remedies. However, I think someone that has established a good reputation under one identity will have better luck than someone not honoring their deals and becoming fly-by-night newbies. |

You're literally an idiot if you think posting on a forum holds you to any legal obligation lmfao
You are literally an idiot, then. When it is in writing, it doesn't matter if it is a text, a social media post or written on good old fashioned paper. A contract is a contract. |

Well, I was going to leave on the signature, even though I wasn't going to get paid anymore, a little longer because I wanted them to get their money's worth. Oh well, back to blank signature.

Bummer. I only got to participate for 1 week. I do appreciate the 300k sats though.  |

How can an objective Guild have an non-objective application process that prevents members from even applying? Seems discriminatory, and therefore not objective. QED.
Well, it appears that LoyceV has been drafted as a member of this guild. So I am certain that there must be other ways to become a member of this guild. From what I read in the OP, you can definitely try playing lip service to the tenets and just call yourself a member. |
|
|
|
No, I just tried it. ~suchmoon disappeared after "Update" and nothing changed. No guild membership for me or Lauda I guess.
Well, fortunately for those poor souls on the blackball list, they can always create an alt account or just use one that they have handy. After all, we need more alt accounts bitching about the trust system. We can never have enough of those.  |
|
|
|
Is there an application process for this Guild? I want to apply.
Step 1: Remove your negative trust comment for Tecshare. Step 2: Include rather than exclude Tecshare from your trust list. Step 3: Read the OP and adjust your trust list to include everyone part of the guild and exclude all clown car members. Step 4: Leave positive trust comment for Tecshare It's that easy. However, is it possible to exclude yourself from your own trust list? That might be tricky. |
