What is?

[SlugButter]

What happened to the Republicans crying that the Democrats demanding a reasonable min wage would destroy all business as we know it?
Now you say the Dems are demanding poverty wages?
Pick a complaint and have the guts to stick to it.

Yeah, because minimum wage is the only way to help poor people. Dumbass. More proof that you tote the corporate line for cheap labor.

Please, post the quote of me saying that. Or inferring it.
Or post what you read and interpreted in your mind as that claim.
I’ll wait.

So you’re denying that you think hospital service be based on vaccination status? You’ve said it numerous times. You’re a liar and a corporate toad. Good job.

I think people who aren’t vaccinated but could have been and need hospital care should stick firmly to their beliefs and continue deny medical science.
Unlike what Trump did.

If they want to flip-flop on their beliefs as a matter of convenience, then they should take responsibility and pay their own way like grownups.
Make your bed? SLEEP IN IT.

You know why race car drivers have more expensive insurance? Because it offsets the higher likelihood of payout. Which reduces the financial burden on the less likely to need a payout. Kind of like the high-risk teen drivers.
REALLY weird economic strategy, huh?

So now you support billionaire insurance company profits. You really are a terrible democrat. You should probably vote for Trump and his pro-billionaire policies.

Hey Slug...I can only imagine what he thinks of someone like myself who is perm disabled due to a syndrome and just had his 110th surgery on Tuesday with having 3 of them since Aug 17th. I bet he would hate what medicare pays for me to stay alive and be able to still walk albeit with a cane daily.

MRNA tech has been in development and use for 15 years. Is 20 OK? 25?
Tell us your wisdom, oh soothsayer.

It hasn’t been in use. It’s never been used to successfully treat anything on any mass scale. It’s nanotechnology, is why. It’s nanotech genes, where a corporation can program your cells to do stuff, like grow the spike proteins from the sars-cov-2 virus. That makes your body create anti-bodies. What happen when those wear off? What happens when tons and tons of spike proteins clog your cardiovascular system?

Like, how stupid are people to let MASSIVE corporations program your literal biology!?

What could go wrong? Sounds like a perfect plan to me!

Oh, not only that, there’s absolutely zero liability for the “vaccine” makers! Well, ain’t that something.

You’re disposable to these New Democrats. I’m glad I ditched that stupid party back in 2009 when they attempted to give our entire healthcare system to the billionaire insurance companies they were supposed to protect us from. Only an ******* could vote for that and not recognize what was going on.

I am disposable to both parties. Both parties see people like myself and seniors like my parents a drain on the country. GOP gives less support to the disabled in this country and the democrats do "just" enough in some disabled peoples eyes to keep them happy and its BS. Go to Canada, UK and most countries in Europe and we get a decent monthly amount, don't have to scramble for food, drugs and heating costs vs what I have to do here every year for that help. One saving grace in my life is my parents are still here to help otherwise I would have been homeless a long time ago.

We already pay socialist level taxes without any of the actual benefits of socialism. It’s absurd.

Read more closely, and don’t let Sluggos pathetic attempts at spin confuse you.
I support welfare for those are are deserving, and eligible. Without it, our country would collapse to the level of many other third-world places.

Did you choose your syndrome? Did you deny medical science that could have prevented it, but now accept medical science out of convenience? I very highly doubt that. And I fully support programs that help you if you are unable to help yourself.
Defraud those programs, and I will have no problem making sure you don’t ever do it again.

What Slugmuncher is attempting to do is paint me as an extremist. Either a far-right who hates all socialistic ideas like welfare, or a far-left who thinks all capitalists should be shot.
What is killing him is that I am neither, nor am I in the dead center. Where I “am” is based on the situation and the circumstances around it. I practice due diligence and critical thinking. Because I don’t apply the same lens to every situation and toe a party line, I am dangerous and unpredictable. Expect me to jab because “that’s how it’s always done” and I will throw a right hook because “that is effective”.

Slug really knows little of what he speaks, so he lashes out with anger and insults and opinions instead of facts and evidence.
It’s not uncommon. Sadly.

You don’t drive on streets? No fire department in your town? No police department? No post office? No EMTs? No electricity or water or sewer? No health insurance if you can’t afford it or get it through a job? No public schools?

You might want to consider moving to a place that has such things.

I have seen some of the legislation that has been put on the table to make your life easier. I have also seen who votes it down.

People like Paul Ryan who say poor people should just get jobs (ignoring the fact that there are far fewer jobs than people who need jobs, and there are tons of people who are simply incapable). Or like Trump, whose budget had MAJOR cuts to Social Security and the Medicare you need, yet during election campaigns he was accusing BIDEN of wanting to make those cuts.
GO FIGURE.

Yeah, I tend to be a realist when it comes to analysis, not a party follower.

Slug attempts are not confusing me or spinning me.

Up till my diagnoses it was thought I was just hurt or had a bone disease. I got my diagnoses due to a stroke of luck by getting the one doctor in the country who knew and studies my syndrome. NO ONE in the US studies it but him and he studies it because he is German and it was of interest to him as it was found in his country in the early 1960s. It is denied by science and doctors in this country where as in Europe where it was found and other countries it is not. It is by far one of the most extreme rarest syndromes known that they can't even put a number on it.

I get told all the time by people on the net and in life I am doing this or faking this or some other crap. Facts are in this country they do NOT take care of the disabled, they do NOT take care of seniors like other countries. GOP cares less about the disabled then the Democrats do but the so called Democrats do "just" enough to keep some in the community happy so they keep on voting for them. Meanwhile I scramble every year to get what help I can. We are finally getting a decent COA and once again it will go right out the window as they cut my eligibility for FS, Heating Assistance and what not because this country doesn't do anywhere near what Canada or Europe does. And before I get the "Oh maybe you should move there or why haven't you moved there garbage?". Trust me if I could I would in a heartbeat. At least then I would know I would be able to have a monthly income that would support me without having to rely on my parents who pays a couple of my bills so I can have internet, gaming time and occasionally be able to buy a car audio product I want.

Both parties have raided Social Security for Decades. It holds a huge portion of the US Debt in IOU's. It will never be paid back. Both are wanting to cut it back because of it supposedly running out of money. It isn't running out of money the government owes it because they borrowed it and have not nor will never pay it back. So they use the excuse that we must cut SS funding.

Medicare in many ways is a joke as well. What I have to do in order to get some of my daily medications is BS as well. Constantly having to file this appeal or this appeal or that appeal. Or for procedures that I need I have to go through a ton of hoops just to get it done. And the FDA? Feck that place! There is a TON of medications that are used overseas that are very good with no side effects but the FDA won't let them here or they make them wait 10 years. Why? Simple because the FDA is in bed with the Pharmacy companies as well. If a foreign Pharmacy company is making a newer better drug then what a US company is making and its cheaper that means oh no we are hurting our US companies....Can't have that can we! FDA just sucks all around. Trying to get approval from them on any medication takes years vs what it does overseas and yet they don't have anywhere near the kind of issues or BS you see here.

Kinda like Microshit and Apple here. Here they get away with a ton of practices they can't over in Europe. All in the name of Capitalism.

People can say what they want but Canada and UK with their free healthcare does have some positives. I know plenty of people in both those countries and all of them also pay a private insurance fee and it is between 40-70 bucks a month. Between the two coverage's nothing gets denied. And Dental care here in the states vs overseas? Pfffffffft Another thing that is lacking here.

I can name two people on this forum that would be on the side of those who think you are faking it just so you can live the “high life” of $673 a month in SSI and $200 a month to buy food. Yeah, ROLLING in luxury.

And I’m not one of them.
