When you're pretending to stand for freedom etc and you then turn round and happily censor stuff for China.how?
like, if you were pointing at any of this it'd be pretty apparent, but wtf is progressive or not progressive about airing a Simpson's episode somewhere?
Why not? They censor stuff for plenty of other countries. And that's regarded as normal and fine.When you're pretending to stand for freedom etc and you then turn round and happily censor stuff for China.
Calling people who defend pharmaceutical companies making a profit "Communists" comes to mind.
and they get called out for that too.....Why not? They censor stuff for plenty of other countries. And that's regarded as normal and fine.
I think you screwed that up, want to try it again?Calling people who defend pharmaceutical companies making a profit "Communists" comes to mind.
Yes, how dare Disney comply with FCC regulations on obscenityand they get called out for that too.....
FCC is a bit different to China's censorship lolYes, how dare Disney comply with FCC regulations on obscenity
You'd certainly like to think so.FCC is a bit different to China's censorship lol
It's pretty accurate. Something along the lines of: 'Marxists want to destroy the world so they want vaccine.'I think you screwed that up, want to try it again?
It's... pretty relevant, when you're arguing that centralised government provision of healthcare resources is inferior to decentralised provision.It's largely irrelevant, what matters is they overpaid for too few ventilators.
Complete bollocks. Several times you've claimed I've said something, and when challenged, dredged up some quote that doesn't say what you claimed. You're lying.I'd pull the quotes, but you throw a fit when I quote you.
The problems of unanticipated demand and production issues were entirely, successfully negated by DPA. The US made a political choice to not invoke Federal involvement for far too long.Uhhh, the problem with ventilators worldwide was unanticipated demand and production issues. That includes the US. You realize the DPA is a way to create more supply than you would ever normally need, correct?
Yet again, just regurgitate shite I never said and insist ad-nauseum that I said them. You can quote me "literally" saying that, eh? Literally that? No you fucking can't.It's not dishonest, you've quite literally said silly things like that people don't know silicon is useful and it would disappear without a bureaucrat in charge. You lie about your own positions.
Incredibly large and monied businesses and groups, perhaps. As I've said before, I do not want to empower those entities one iota. I would have thought you wouldn't either.You did notice I kept saying businesses and groups, right?
!?!?I didn't and I in fact was the first one talking about nationalization because you're the one that started with privatization not being bad, and tried to equate privatization with nationalization. Which is another weird argument from you.
If that were my argument, maybe, but it's not. I've been exceedingly clear that my position is that the biggest determination of ventilator price and availability is when you ordered them, not what kind of healthcare system a country in question is using.It's... pretty relevant, when you're arguing that centralised government provision of healthcare resources is inferior to decentralised provision.
Except it said exactly what I said you said, in plain English.Complete bollocks. Several times you've claimed I've said something, and when challenged, dredged up some quote that doesn't say what you claimed. You're lying.
The problems of unanticipated demand and production issues were entirely, successfully negated by DPA. The US made a political choice to not invoke Federal involvement for far too long.
You cannot say "the problem with ventilators worldwide was unanticipated demand and production issues" when the country in question had a provable method to solve those issues, and chose not to use it, even as states and medical associations begged them to. That choice is the problem.
Yet again, just regurgitate shite I never said and insist ad-nauseum that I said them. You can quote me "literally" saying that, eh? Literally that? No you fucking can't.
I really actually can.Let's imagine that a trade deal is required. The country needs more silicon, else they'll be looking at a severe computer chip shortage in a few years.
Now, the vast majority of people do not know the stock is low, and nor do they know that computer chips are composed of silicon. So it's unlikely the trade deal even gets proposed in order for it to be put to vote.
Correct. But now do you see my point that a government doesn't really have anything special in contract negotiations?Incredibly large and monied businesses and groups, perhaps. As I've said before, I do not want to empower those entities one iota. I would have thought you wouldn't either.
But you've advocated that government contracting is fine and good and ensures reliability.!?!?
I have literally no idea where you're getting this ludicrous guff from. Everything else you've wrongly attributed to me at least has some partial resemblance to something I've said. This is complete fabrication.
I've never equated nationalisation and privatization. I've consistently been against privatization since the start. I've always advocated nationalisation.
Yeh the issue is it's the whole pharmaceutical companies making profit part that I think seems a bit off. Not the idea of vaccinations themselves part.....It's pretty accurate. Something along the lines of: 'Marxists want to destroy the world so they want vaccine.'
Like most conservative talking points, just throw a bunch of buzz words around and you 'win.' It's doesn't matter if the buzzwords don't match the actions they are meant to take.
Oh no, son, I got it right. I defended big pharma making a profit, and got labeled a COMMUNIST. For defending a private corporation. Making money. Not the first time either, I also got it for advocating for flat rate payment clinics.I think you screwed that up, want to try it again?
I'm going to repeat myself. The MO is throwing a bunch of buzz words.Yeh the issue is it's the whole pharmaceutical companies making profit part that I think seems a bit off. Not the idea of vaccinations themselves part.....
What's wrong with Ruby Bridges?But they told me anti-CRT laws wouldn't be used like this?
