The New "What did you do with your Z today" (with off topic replies) XXXI

Hotrodz

Lots at play with the wall. As stated Dems are not necessary against a wall as they have funded such things in the past. This is all about power the 2020 elections. Trump need to deliver for his base and the Dems are not about to let it happen. So far Trump has only been able to give his supporter small wins and the Republicans are not helping him. His efforts with health care failed miserably. His only real wins have been with trade and a lot of American companies are hurting because of some of those moves. His efforts to bolster the military have fallen flat and have put our troops at risk. Our government is in chaos and they are so self focused none of us matter. Tax cuts...really were is the money be made up. The US debt is higher than ever and has grown faster than the previous administration. We all should be pissed weather you are for Trump or not he and our congressional leadership are failing us.

The roads are terrible. Took me 45 minutes to get to work. Normally takes me 20 minutes. Cars hung up everywhere. I was in 4x4 the whole way.

It has been so cold they stopped using salt. Both lanes on the expressway are packed down ice piles now. 45 mph the whole way home and the Fit was moving all over the place. I had about 200 yards in front of me until the next car and I hit the brakes hard and I didnt even slow down one bit I eased off the gas pedal and prayed when my exit was coming up. Luckily it is uphill to the stop light.

This is a pretty great summary. It doesn't help that Health Care is such a huge issue to tackle. I have no doubt if the Republicans really had a better platform, they'd have unveiled it, but short of cutting coverage (again) for people with pre-existing conditions, you're not going to cut the cost of health care, and you're not going to stop the costs from rising, unless you make some pretty aggressive moves elsewhere in the sector. Right now a massive portion of the cost of healthcare goes into administration and advertising (up to 25% and 15%, respectively). Eliminating that is very tricky to do. Chronic illnesses such as diabetes and heart disease have also increased - responsible for as much as 85% of health care costs for spending that actually goes towards providing care.

Sickest 5% of the population are 50% of the total health care cost. Blows my mind.

I get where you're coming from, but the level of freedom we STILL have here compared to other countries is pretty mind blowing. The path to success has narrowed, but it hasn't vanished. My brother's stories from his trips to Africa are pretty harrowing. My ex's experiences in Egypt (even as a US Citizen and tourist) are likewise eye opening.

True. Norway is fantastic, but conversely it's an ultra-PC culture. Switzerland is also amazing, but very pricey to live there (of course the average income there is also much higher). I'd consider living in either of those countries.

Everyone voted for the lesser of two evils. The choices the last election were horrible. I hope we have a better choice next election.

FPenvy

doubtful.

it'll be one of the last 2 and another terrible dem choice.

I still think when you are born they should chriofreeze your nuts. Only once you reach adulthood and verified that you are a contributing member of society do they give them back to you so you can procreate.

They're definitely tall! My brother's wife is 6'0, and she's the shortest of her sisters.
