Hospitals want to drain your estate of every dime while insurance companies want you to die as soon and as cheaply as possible. It’s a beautiful balance.

Men are the reason Amelia Earhart died?

Yes, please screw the entire world economy and use it to fund global jihad. As long as it embarrasses Donald Trump then it’s worth it.

I reserve my dislike for people who feel obligated to express their petty and useless opinions, but you do you.

Also all of the smaller powers too, who do even worse things to their people but nobody knows or cares about it.

That makes more sense

I was curious why they didn’t mention Israel or Lebanon and so I read the article and concluded that it’s because it’s not about Israel or Lebanon.

Blows my mind that people cheer on Iran. Is it just a simple, anti trump, anti Israel reaction?

Bro got brutally post mogged. Unfortunate for him that he crossed paths with an Elder. He needs to grind 4chan for the next few weeks if he hopes to ever recover. Instagram reels won’t help him out of this one.

It’s probably complex, but the end result is that it benefits democrats and that’s the important part. The way politics works is that you work backwards from the outcome you want, creating the narrative to drive to that outcome. Republicans don’t like mail in voting because it benefits democrats. Democrats like mail in voting because it benefits them. Same with the voter ID conversation. It’s actually pretty easy to create conspiracies to support narratives. In the case of mail in voting you can say that it’s easy to commit fraud and that’s why it shouldn’t be allowed. But how do you disprove that? Especially to the people who find it convenient to believe it.

What does “statistically” mean to you?

Uhh, seems like it’s way more “fashionable” for Europeans to bash the US if anything.

The paradox of intolerance is the one that’s been getting to me lately. People forgot that its a paradox and think it’s justification for them to attack people they disagree with.

Cuba and China are currently 56 and 57th in the world for life expectancy. Even if there was a time where their life expectancy improved faster than the rest of the world because of socialist policies, their edge has since then disappeared.

Which countries are you thinking of? There aren’t that many that still consider themselves socialist or communist. Cuba is really the only good example i can think of that fits what you are describing.

So why did life expectancy go up so much around the rest of the world at the same time? Come on…

Those metrics improved worldwide during those time periods. It had more to do with the development of vaccines and antibiotics.

It helps to think of getting sick as the price you pay for boosting your immune system.

It also won’t prevent you from collecting a gang and bullying people.

So nothing then. If you want something then you take it, if you are more powerful. That sounds problematic.
