Yes even on HN I find that most people are pretty dogmatic about healthcare. People tend to react rationally to the data when presented, but are also happy to make aggressive statements that are unsupported by data
- 4ntonius8lock 7y agoI don't have much experience with Think Tanks, but I've found the ones I've looked at to be highly partial to those funding them. This country is very capable of smart, logical thinking. We've basically eradicated the issues of flooding. If we apply that type of thinking/organization, the issue could be tackled. But both sides, left and right, would have to want truth over vindication. We need to demand commissions to investigate, instead of trying to validate pre-conceived ideological notions. If people reading the article asked for it, politicians would take note and would likely commission a good study. That's the beauty of our system (despite it's glaring flaws)
