Are you high? If a Saudi woman reports rape in Saudi Arabia she will get blamed for it and very well might get executed by a male relative in an honor killing.
Explain why scaling is an issue, whats the magical cutoff point that prevents the US from being able to copy other countries policies that are obviously better than ours.

Canada, India, England, France, China, Egypt, Israel, and some other areas near each that were minitrips and honestly I can't recall 100% because it was like "Hey, lets do one day in Denmark while we're doing a week in France" type stuff when I was younger. Only have done targeted trips on my own (India/Israel/England).

And of course he'd need to explain why we couldn't just "scale" to a per state thing - after all states are roughly the same size as most of these countries (actually smaller for all but a few) and still have sovereignty when the 10th isn't being ignored.

Yes, that's how much they value female vagina. They are truly savages of our time.

Socialism is great until you run out of other people's money. Venezuela's socialist experiment is going down in flames as we speak. California's too, albeit more slowly.

You and Burnbaby are welcome to explain how we are going to pay for and staff these unidentified yet apparently awesome foreign social programs. If you're talking about British health care, that worked when they could take other peoples doctors (mostly from India and Pakistan). Nowadays not so much.

Refuses to explain why scaling is a problem. Refuses to list the countries he's visited. Wears fedoras.

Who are these "other people" that are generously donating money to fund dirty, dirty socialism?

Oh and...Norwegians become crown millionaires as sovereign wealth fund hits benchmark - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation)

Our system is due to have problems now that Indian and Pakistani doctors are starting to slow in coming here too... and "social programs" are a trickle of the funding we use as is, even in the nations that are "OMG SOCIALISMS" tier, we could match their expenses as a percentage of national expenses by halving our military budget and STILL have a military thrice the size of the next largest nation.

Funding shit is easy. Hell, just cut out some of the tax breaks to the Exxons and the like and you might be able to do it without even trimming the military.

PS - For someone who likes to refer to those places as "OMG FASCIST" isn't it odd that one of the most important things for a Facism to operate - a large military is what we have, not they?

Reminder: "socialist" healthcare systems cost a lot less than our current system, so why exactly is "running out of other people's money" a major concern for them?

Dodge and evade never answer the direct question asked of you, you sir are clearly the winner, I mean shit how can you not when you are never forced to actually fucking explain the shit you say. Tuco won't even hold you to the same standards that he holds Lumie to, you are worse than Lumie, let that shit sink in for a moment.

Simple math is to difficult for Merlin and Tad they are confused by it, can't pay for it (trying to change the topic from scaling) even though it is cheaper. Care to address why scaling fucks us sir?

America steals bunch of doctors from Canada and UK cuz bigger pay.
Which is cool, Europeans get to go to the UK. USMLE is serious business, hard to compete with them brown folks from India for the profitable specializations anyway.

we get leftovers from paki and india.
As a Brown immigrant would you want to come to the US unless it was NE or West coast? I'm white and I wouldn't ever want to go back to Alabama, fucking racist down there even hate white people (Seriously had a cashier ask me if I was Bagel Eater, and I went there because I passed a piggly wiggly that was having a KKK rally in the parking lot) so you have to consider that as well.

Bad news if you've donated to a Tea Party PAC:

How are two big tea party groups spending their money? | The Daily Caller

"The mission of the PAC will be to support good citizen-candidates to run for public office and represent the views of the majority of Americans in all levels of government," Martin added.

So far, no money has been spent to support those candidates. According to the year-end spending report filed with the Federal Election Commission, of the $6,405,087 that the group has raised since early last year, $5,335,162 has been spent, and all of it has been put toward operating expenditures."
Gee what a surprise. Tea Party PACs are just like every other PAC...
