Politics, politics, politics.....

Does every problem in our current society has to be in the Constitution to require a solution?
If that's the case, our Constitution requires a serious update.

So what exactly are the root causes? Social injustice? racial injustice? economic injustice?
Can you name any root cause to these symptoms?

You think getting paid a living wage is going to move more jobs to automation?
That would be a good thing, no more people need to work for slave wages, able to earn a living without working 3 jobs that pay $7.50/hr each.
More time away from slave work would allow workers to focus on their health, mental health, less likely to get addicted to drugs or contemplate suicide; especially when universal healthcare would cover any health or mental health problems.

You seem to fail to recognize that our annual Pentagon budget, international war budget can easily cover universal healthcare, universal income to solve the economic problem of this country many times over. Instead of helping our citizens domestically, our government is wasting taxpayer money on endless wars overseas; to make people around the world hate Americans & endanger American servicemen & women overseas.

Lockdowns are just cautionary measures during a global pandemic, which have killed over 400k Americans.
Talk to your family physician whether lifting the lockdowns is a good idea for densely populated cities during a global pandemic.

 

I think that inaccurate C19 reported deaths are balanced out by the ones that are not even reported. Just like what happens every year with the flu. Is a guy riding a motorcycle that dies in a crash a bike death or was it the heart attack that caused the crash the cause of death. Bottom line is the US has 1/4 of the entire planets deaths and doing nothing sure as hell is not working. We will be at 1/2 a million dead very soon. When is the "anniversary" of C19? Today was the first reported case. Pandemic was declared I think at the beginning of March. C19 is at least 8 times more deadly that the average flu year. 12 times more deadly than car wreck deaths. In fact C19 is close to ALL forms of cancer deaths combined. People that think that the measures of combating C19 infringe on their rights or are too severe to really help should think about seat belts, airbags, experimental cancer drugs and other means of helping people survive some awful death. Yes even cloth masks do something. Proper masks and distancing work even better. If we as a whole had not politicized this shit we could have bought a lot more time to get a vaccine up to speed and saved a LOT more lives. I'll say again, yes Australia was firm with its shut downs but the people did not divide themselves into tribes and the country as a whole is light years better than the chaos division has caused here in the US.

 

Well land mass wise we are bigger. Per capita deaths we are still higher that ALL f the European countries combined Total population of Europe is a little over 721 million people with 662326 deaths. The US pop is 328 million with 425000 deaths. So yeah we are still in last place or 1st place according to how you frame it. Europe is way more crowded and I think that alone would contribute to faster and more wide spread transmission. Political division is our problem.
Kind of reminds me a while back when I was on my Honda at bike week in Daytona and a Harley rider was giving me shit for not buying American. I said well your bike is not entirely American. He took great offense until I asked where his Showa forks were made, (Japan) or his EFI system that comes from Korea or the steel used for his pistons (Japan) and many other parts. He was looking at me with a lost look on his face when I said I bet that Harley T shirt you are wearing is not US. His buddy flipped the tag and started laughing, China! Ignorance is bliss and biased.

 

You said Europe, on a country by country per capita we are not the highest. If I remember correctly compared to European countries only Italy is higher than us on a per capita basis. Tightly packed countries have a harder time controlling this crap. I'm worried about some of the new mutations, they are far more contagious than the already vey contagious original strain. And they don't know yet if the vaccines work on it. I still wonder if this was a bio weapon being developed in China that got out of control.

That PBS Doc was very interesting. Seeing Cruz and Rubio who both publicly trash and hated Trump fold like wet noodles was just pitiful.

 

I don't think its fear mongering, I think more shit is going to hit the fan. I traveled a lot world wide for work during many other viral outbreaks and thankfully never caught H1N1, Ebola or other corona viruses. This C19 is by far the biggest pain in the worlds ass. But I'd rather contract C19 than Ebola! Bleeding out through all of your orifices in agony is probably worse than drowning in your own lung fluids.

 

Once again, you have no clue what privilege I was talking about.





Topic of for-profit prisons & our so-called "justice system" is also rigged for investors:


Maybe these topics don't pertain to you, so you can just ignore them; that's privilege.

 

Your inability to understand clear text displayed among imagines does not make the messages any less clear, learn to read.

Must be a privilege not have to get through life without comprehending what you read.

I guess when you can't debate about the context of the memes, you are resorted to label the context as "opportunity for misunderstanding".
