Medicaid covers what, 70 million people? That's poor people who actually can't afford it and as the greatest country on earth we help them. As for the others....

People want things handed to them for nothing. You and I both know there are a lot of people saying they can't afford health insurance who could if they weren't financially irresponsible.
youre not the greatest country on earth, and your health insurance is expensive and everyone knows it

Just different perspectives. Neither is always wrong. I couldn't imagine many Canadians would listen to a review of the main points of each system and prefer the US over the European.
i dunno i just hear things all the time like EU food is better, their healthcare is better, they have better flying rights, better worker rights, cheap or free tuition, less jails, which leads me to that conclusion.

The EU is turning into a third world country because they tolerate too much.

What's wrong with believing your way of life is better. Lack of assimilation is problematic. Let's see we are in the era of diversity for everything except the right way.

What is the right way you ask? It's the culture and rules that benefit your society the most. That's why ideas can be a threat to the norm. The US framework is a constitutional republic. It's an idea that every generation has to relearn and appreciate.

I'm learning myself and these debates are helpful. Good intentions are welcome and are not necessarily a bad thing.

you guys are going to have to attack and discredit Dr. Fauci becuase he's not helping the narrative the left is trying to spin here.

in todays press briefing which you apparently chose to ignore Dr. Fauci specifically addressed this point. He said the issue was not a funding issue but a system issue when he said the CDC was well prepared for testing as had been conducted in the past and that testing at the level we were trying to under take with this pandemic was a system issue that required help from the private sector.
They've been warning about the next pandemic for years and criticized the Trump administration's decision in 2018 to dismantle a National Security Council directorate at the White House charged with preparing for when, not if, another pandemic would hit the nation.

“It would be nice if the office was still there,” Dr. Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases at the National Institute of Health, told Congress this week. “I wouldn't necessarily characterize it as a mistake (to eliminate the unit). I would say we worked very well with that office.”

I admire Fauci for standing-up and telling the truth. I'm sure Trump would like to fire him, but that won't fly, especially since Trump has now been tested. Don't know why he's getting tested over a "hoax".

He sure looked and sounded a bit under the weather in that news conference.

He's fine. Best genes ever!! It's all FAKE NEWS and a HOAX formulated by Shifty Schiff and Pelosi to make those do-nothing Democrats look relevant!!

Seriously, if he does have it, I wonder what all of the doubters here are going to say? My guess is that they'll be rushing to Costco and duct-taping plastic bags together for their version of a hazmat suit.
