I've met extremely few people with autism who are far right. One or two on a larger online autism community. Socialism seems very popular and it's also pretty controlled.

That sounds great. It's horrible being in public transport (Europe) with a compromised immune system. Two weeks after I went on my medicine someone walked past in a close to empty train and sneezed big lumps of snot onto my face.

And not to forget: College There's a reason I was comparing healthcare costs per capita, because then we don't have to argue about things like total tax rate, because it doesn't matter. US taxes wouldn't need to increase

How is this, from your link, the government bargaining on medical costs? > but the plan bypasses an obvious remedy - one that President Donald Trump embraced as a candidate: allowing Medicare to negotiate drug prices directly with pharma

You are paying much more than anyone else[0]. I really doubt that's because of you being the 17th fattest country by BMI[1]. [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_total_hea... [1] https:/&#x

And you do have a system where you pay more than anyone else for the pleasure of poor people dying. Harshly worded but that is already solved, and somehow I don't see people being happy with it. I think it's pretty clear that taxe

> Not sure it's that simple... There aren't that many countries that pay as much as the us from public funds (two, see my previous link) or out of pocket (none). The problem is localized to the US.

Well. A for profit entity can hardly be regarded as bargaining on your behalf. They are bargaining on behalf of their revenue. The difference between what they negotiate and what they charge you is their entire business.

You need single payer because you can overcharge anyone who can't negotiate lower rates (i.e. individuals who's personal business with the healthcare system doesn't have much if any effect on it). Compare that to a state barg

Don't fall for the 'yes, but countries that have cheap healthcare pay for it with taxes'. The US pays more than most from taxes[0]. In Sweden we pay less per capita than americans do (from taxes) and my total _maximum_ healt

The problem is mostly regulations allowing co-pilots to join in with extremely little experience. That was not the case here.

I was going to correct you on what 10-15% of the sales price was, but then I noticed that yes, it is 50% more expensive here from Sweden. The US price is not that bad!

No. It's because lack of pilot training for this new airplane has been suggested as a cause.

That link does not support your statement. There are countries with the same safety record and with a higher percentage of their airlines ranking higher in safety than US airlines. Lumping the US versus 'the rest of the world' tog

2/3 of the fleet was reported grounded before Canada joined. I doubt many 737s pass Canada on their way to Europe but I found this: > When it comes to riskier transatlantic and trans-continental routes, Boeing's new narrowbody

You can't fill yourself with that much and if you managed to it won't be absorbed before coming out the other end.

Fishbrain is great. Used it a few years ago and being able to see where people fish and what they catch with what lure saves me a lot of time since I seldom get out to the water. Also friendly comments on catches =)

Look up the pilot running a few different level meters when debunking a flat earthers on YouTube. On mobile but will see if I can link later. Normal levels don't work well at all on planes.

A messenger of Manwë pulled it out of the sky. It was clearly marked speculation. If we are not allowed discussions about possibilities we can kill off comment fields right now.
