Which is bad for improvement

2020-12-24 17:16:44 UTC  

The social issues we face in our cities have been generations in the making.

2020-12-24 17:16:44 UTC  

@gaBe, you just advanced to level 2!

2020-12-24 17:16:58 UTC  

Look at me go! LOL

2020-12-24 17:18:06 UTC  

@gaBe yes as a result of the drug war

2020-12-24 17:18:19 UTC  

Allright ya’ll thanks for the intellectual convo- I have some casseroles to make! Merry Christmas!

2020-12-24 17:18:57 UTC  

@james j I agree with you on that.

2020-12-24 17:22:12 UTC  

Rudy ran New York and made it safe for the years he was there. I have a hard time blaming highly populated areas on that. Been in vegas almost my whole life. This was a cowboy town until the lockdowns. It was clean and safe now not so much. As for healthcare I could afford it before for 250 a month now my plan is almost 1k a month. I dont see an improvement on health care just a steady decline of quality of healthcare. How are supposed to take anything seriously from libs if everything they put out is socially expedient, just half baked plans to maybe make things better. I believe both sides are need to make this country work. First get rid of this old fucks term limits needed.

2020-12-24 17:25:18 UTC  

@MyxnamesxjEff25 we don’t have universal health care. And even after an implementation of such system it would be years before you see any benefits as a result of people living many years. You are still pointing to the growing pains of implementing a system. https://www.google.com/amp/s/thehill.com/blogs/congress-blog/healthcare/484301-22-studies-agree-medicare-for-all-saves-money%3famp

I am focused on long term benefits. Obamacare is a interesting start but nowhere near as comprehensive as it needs to be.

2020-12-24 17:25:36 UTC  

As far as city crimes, get rid of drug laws @MyxnamesxjEff25

2020-12-24 17:26:30 UTC  

The plans aren’t half baked. Conservatives won’t let comprehensive plans pass. Too many self defeating compromises made

We legalized pot and now people are getting in fatal accidents everyday high. I smoke and I can agree with some of that but people on the strip are shooting each other over stupid arguments everyday now. The crime isn't the issue it's the lack of control people exhibit when they come here. My point is that I can't afford coverage as before I could what changed? Obamacare... what system did I watch my uncle waste from cancer on because hotels couldn't afford good benefits.... Obamacare. How about that my family and I are still paying off the helicopter flight for life for my late sister. Why you ask? Because my mother's work dropped her insurance due to the cost because of Obamacare. I get the greater good but how can you put something in place and not be ready for inflation? I personally have only seen terrible things come from that plan.

2020-12-24 17:40:05 UTC  

No I missed that you have links?

2020-12-24 17:46:35 UTC  

Huh? Far right what are you smoking?

2020-12-24 18:00:03 UTC  

Can I keep my doctor too <:KermitSip:669943901792108570>

2020-12-24 18:02:27 UTC  

I like how most of his commentary consists of 'Uhh?', 'Why!?', 'What?', 'Okaay?'

2020-12-24 18:04:25 UTC  

he just stopped evaluating the lawsuit because it was making him too stupid

2020-12-24 18:08:25 UTC  

That's where I clicked in to the video.

2020-12-24 18:09:14 UTC  

Then scrubbed back to see how it started off. He progressively became more irritated.

2020-12-24 18:11:54 UTC  

Protesting is fine, going to church is bad

2020-12-24 18:14:19 UTC  

How is it possible that in 2020 we are back to choosing who to give medical lifesaving treatments to based on race.

2020-12-24 18:17:54 UTC  

I'm high on reality. I will never understand how people think they can just switch to more rightwing news and pretend the country shifted left 🤷

2020-12-24 18:21:58 UTC  

Really the overton window hasn't shifted to the far-right. It's been steadily shifting more left due to Trump being such a divisive figure.

2020-12-24 18:23:32 UTC  

Interesting between fleshing out the election process and proving no fraud and Trumps legal team failing to produce results, fake fraud support seems to be waning among informed middle of the road folks. That might be the best we get with many taking queues from Trump not court cases.

I dont see how Newsmax beating out Fox is a leftward shift. Fox is the same as always been and folks saying they sold out to the Democrats. It's odd. Biden beat out remotely progressive candidates and put forth a boring moderate cabinet. I dont see the left doing much more than before. The major beef people seemed to have with Obama is healthcare which was a much further right law than most developed countries use. Or that his policies on national security or drones were far too right.

2020-12-24 18:29:05 UTC  

Well, for one, the US is more further right than most other countries for one. Two: Socialized healthcare in general is a leftward swing for the US. Keep in mind, the US is very different to Britain and Canada for example.

2020-12-24 18:29:19 UTC  

As you can see in the screenshot.

2020-12-24 18:34:54 UTC  

We had greatly reduced corporate tax wealthy tax regulation following Bush. I dont find a partial restoration of that a very left shift. While the right tried to gut unions I always found it curious it was deemed a right leaning platform. Workers having bargaining power leads to greater market freedom. The government stepping in and forcing corporations to give workers more is the left. Neoconservatives abandoned the working class to support CEOs. A much more right leaning stance than their prior views.

2020-12-24 18:35:08 UTC  

It really depends on the Polling and questions asked. Tell me your desired Outcome and I will design questions to achieve that.

2020-12-24 18:36:05 UTC  

Stop looking at things through a narrow scope.

2020-12-24 18:36:20 UTC  

Seems like they used a pretty straight forward question.

2020-12-24 18:37:30 UTC  

I look at things through a broader scope 😂 2000- 2016? What happened to conservativism of 50 years back.

2020-12-24 18:38:08 UTC  

I am not questioning the Merits of that Poll as I am unfamiliar with its Methodology. I am only speaking of how Polls in general can be manipulated.

2020-12-24 18:39:18 UTC  

The Psychology of Polling.

2020-12-24 18:43:47 UTC  

NPR not exactly known for making polls political they are about third behind Gallup and Pew. Trumps throwing the country into chaos seems to be waning. Once a super majority of independents, all the opposing party and support in your own party wanes you have optics issues at the very least. At th beginning we started at what bulk or GOP and even a third of Dems saying we definetely wany more info. Now we are hitting a point many are comfortable with that info.
