  1. Regarding health care services, America is middle of the pack in our peers for quality, including wait time. We are unmatched in the amount we pay however, as measured by percent of gdp. 50 percent higher than the next , which is Canada.
  2. It was the single largest killer in our country is a better way to describe it, rather than play with numbers that describe the portion of society that dies. I'll grant you it wasn't the USSR during WWII. Not sure why you aren't following but masks mitigate the transmission of viral respiratory infections but do not offer much protection from infection. Thus, the responsibility for each other.
  3. Depends on what is said during this innocent little phone call from the sitting president of the United States.
  4. Florida man!!! Love it! Haven't heard that one.
  5. The protocols for social distancing, masking, shutdowns and so on and so forth were compromises. The veracity of them were proportional to the threat society faced. Today, we have little restrictions because threat is lower. Not the case, at all,, before vaccines and the virus to less lethal versions. Let's not pretend those million died mysteriously or it wouldn't have been much greater without a reaction from society. It seems our argument is whether we have a level of responsibility to each other or not. There are 335,000,000 of us. Does your right to swing your fist end at spewing droplets on my face?
  6. Smart ass answer, so carry on.
  7. Is this your actual understanding of poverty?
  8. Canada's problem is they run a bastard hybrid of private and public. Should be entirely socialist.
  9. Who says you have to wear a mask? We are past that for the moment and I haven't worn one since 2022, IIRC. Have you? If you asked me that before vaccination was available, you would have gotten a different answer because we were losing 5000 people a day. The answer then was to be a decent person and do the minimal to mitigate the spread of the disease. Not complex at all.
  10. Sorry to hear that, all the best for you and all your family.
  11. If his goal was to look like a mafioso, mission accomplished!
  12. He was sopping wet
  13. It is personal taste. I just don't like it. The lyrics are fine, but the cash register is irritating LOL
  14. Governments pay farmers to produce nothing all the time or at least our government does. It is price control.
  15. Those over 50 are people, no different from a kid or young adult. The notion that people not actively presenting symptoms can't spread the disease is malarkey deeply rooted in Facebook news. There is responsibility on each for the other. COVID killed over a million, so pretty well founded hysteria
  16. Has a vague "Pros and Cons of Hitchhiking" vibe to it. Money was always garbage, IMO. Loved the original Time version, this one is far worse. Pros and Cons of Hitchhiking is a great album.
  17. Reduced spread of disease is vital to society and kids need to to play their role along with everyone else. If there is an outbreak of a different vaccinated disease, unvaccinated kids aren't allowed in school. COVID killed massive, massive numbers, whether people acknowledge it or not. Covid vaccine is billions in and piling up years at this point. It is proven, even if the proving grounds weren't ideal.
  18. During his presidency, his billed height and weight was exactly one biscuit short of obese. Something is amiss if he makes that.
  19. Feel the same way about cholera, tetanus and measles?
  20. Sounds like growing an economy to me.
  21. Wrong. Facebook news is a catch all for the shi!t folks read on the Internet and gullibly accept as reality, usually in concert with like-minded people to further an erroneous narrative. Like you and husker!
  22. She has already covered her ass. She didn't indict anyone. Grand jury did. Also, it's Fanni Willis. Get that right since she might be the one to put your hero in prison!
  23. Old news. Looks like they put together a decent plan.
