22nd School Shooting this year

[Aegon]

I would personally not want to live in the US because of the piss poor lack of social health care. its like its a third world country.
Pay some tax and get health cover. 
Whats wrong with that?

What’s wrong with pay some money, and get some health coverage? Cut out the middle man, seeing as the government is horrible with budgets and money.

...because that's how we got to where we are now? The free market is wildly inefficient when it comes to health care.

Do you ever have a fucking clue about anything you run your mouth about?

That's what we had prior to 2010.

The uninsured rate for those under age 65 plummeted to 10.3% in the first nine months of 2016, according to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. That's the lowest share since the agency began tracking 45 years ago.

In 2010, the rate hit an all-time high of 18.2% before drifting down to 16.6% in 2013, the year before the exchanges and Medicaid expansion went into effect.

Your precious private insurance companies either refused to insure people or made the premiums unaffordable or, when presented with a client with they did insure who suddenly found themselves facing a crisis pulled shit like this:

One of the state's largest health insurers set goals and paid bonuses based in part on how many individual policyholders were dropped and how much money was saved.

Woodland Hills-based Health Net Inc. avoided paying $35.5 million in medical expenses by rescinding about 1,600 policies between 2000 and 2006. During that period, it paid its senior analyst in charge of cancellations more than $20,000 in bonuses based in part on her meeting or exceeding annual targets for revoking policies, documents disclosed Thursday showed.

You're a bullshit artist, RR.

That sounds like you are saying the costs are too high.... I agree.   How is raising my taxes to take everything going to help that?

[The Valkyrie]

Another fucking one??

There is something fundamentally wrong with a society that refuses to learn, makes excuses, and consistently fails to protect its children.

Those policy makers who continually fail to make decent policy, and make excuses while allowing this to happen need to be held accountable.

Greedy bastard.

Such a fine xhristard you are.

Your godboy would be so proud!

Seeing as how you are arguing against statements I didn't make... I would say that it is you who are the bullshit artist.

I think I'll just move back to Sweden.  Now if only I could get my kids and grandkids to do the same.

I wonder if there'll be less talk of arming teachers this time, since teachers decided to finally fight back for pay raises.

If all the poor people without health coverage just moved to sweden, that could solve the problem for everyone!  I wonder if the US paid for the travel, if Sweden would be okay with that.

Britain insists on killing you, and wont let you leave, even if someone else is paying..... so it's hard to say.

If every kid had an AR15 this would stop *sarcasm*

When is it time to start talking about banning the unjustified killing of human beings?

Thread takes a left turn.

Oh, you didn't say this?

Yes I did say that... and you said a lot, that has nothing to do with that. 

You might put all your trust in President Trump, but I would rather have autonomy.

Time to reset the counters:

1 0 days since the last school shooting.
59 0 days since the last fatal school shooting.
26 days since the last shooting to fit the FBI's definition of "mass murder."

Is it strange that the thing I'm most surprised at is that it's been almost two months since someone died in a school shooting?
