If you’re going to mock me, you might as well spell the word correctly. It’s “principles”. And the government was intended to have as few rules and regulations as necessary. The founders overthrew the British government and based the constitution specifically on this “principle”. That really was supposed to be the American way, but I wouldn’t expect a foreigner without a fundamental understanding of our the history of our founding to understand that. I know that most of you prefer security over freedom, and I believe that someone who holds security more dearly than freedom shall have neither.
Jay Alan yes. I’m such a small percentage. Remind me again what party won the presidential election and is going to again this year? I also never claimed to speak for everyone. I find it very interesting that you think I’m some lone island in the sea yet you spend your time trolling my page. That means either that you have too much time on your hands or you know that there’s way more people out there like me than you’re claiming.
Carol Fraughton someone is still salty... first of all, not everyone voted. Second, you might need to familiarize yourself with our system of elections. We have an electoral college specifically to protect the nation from being run by globalist elites who believe they are above the common people. Generally people like you who think the government should decide and regulate everything for everyone. That’s not how it’s supposed to work, and 2016 was a simple reminder of that. But I’ll go past the simple politics on this... I’m not even a fan of Trump. He is not a real conservative. He just does whatever he wants and says things for votes, just like any other politician. But he’s the best option we have at the position. If you think any of the democratic candidates are better, that says more about your state of mind than anything. Also, you can’t vote, so it doesn’t matter. And yes, that is a sentiment that the majority of Americans feel. We don’t care what foreigners have to say about all. All you see is your self-righteous media, that doesn’t represent most of Americans. Can’t tell if you’re british or Canadian. My guess would be Canadian if you know what the super bowl is but still want to lecture Americans about how you’re somehow morally superior to us.
Jay Alan you’re a troll and a clown. And Hillary was the one cheating. Also, as stated, I don’t like either of them. Furthermore, it doesn’t matter what you think the majority of people want. The constitution exists for a reason, and doesn’t not and should not cater to the whims of the what a tyrannical government has indoctrinated people to think for its own purposes. If you don’t like the constitution, just say that... and then move.
We have a user pay legal system....so ppl don't launch frivolous law suits. This means drs aren't sadled with enormous malpractice insurance. We have regulations on the cost of education. So drs have thousands in student debt, not 100s of thousands....and the are paid accordingly....a fraction of what your drs are paid . Drs do well here. But make a fraction of American drs. So people get to afford to see them here.
Haha the irony is that you don’t realize you’ve made my argument for me. Every problem you just described is the result of government overreach in America. The legal system delivering verdicts for bs lawsuits are a result of liberal judges who think it’s their job to hand money out to people. I’ve actually advocated for a system where the loser pays the fees. When it comes to health care and doctors, the government has intertwined itself so much in medicine that providers can’t compete with each other in a true capitalist system, which would actually reduce cost and improve services. Providers aren’t even allowed to tell patients how much they receive and prescription drug companies aren’t allowed to comparison price with other companies to produce lower prices. This is BECAUSE of government regulation. Without all these regulations, pharmaceutical companies and health care providers would compete with each other and the prices would drop dramatically. When it comes to student debt, again, the GOVERNMENT has created that problem. They started guaranteeing loans for young people going to college who had no understanding of what that money really is and how much it would cost them in the future. You combine that with the fact that most young people are pursuing fields that are worthless, too many people are going to college, and everyone is getting “degrees”, you create “degree inflation” where the degrees they get aren’t worth the paper they are printed on, this exacerbating the student loan issue because they can’t get jobs that pay enough to justify the cost. Point blank, the government is too involved in all of it. It used to be that if you wanted to go to college, you had to be intelligent and work hard. Now the government says everyone should go to college... and they shouldn’t. We need more people in trade school. The government has sold a lie to the American people and is handing immense profits to the loansharks who are all too willing to participate. That’s because the corporations, banks, and politicians are in bed with each other. This is not a true capitalist society as it was originally intended to be. Get rid of the government regulation, and you get rid of all these problems you describe. But thank you for making my point for me.
No. You don't get it. You still have to academically earn your spot in university. Professionals are not over produced. Also, when it comes to healthcare: there are zero restrictions to disclosure for costs in medical care. We are provided itemized invoices as if we are being billed...but billing occurs between the office and the govt agency. Drugs are paid for by the patient and insurance and there are competing companies. So, of course we know prices. Our prices are much lower because of pharma regulation. We also have of- label prescribing, which had been banned In the usa to the detriment of effective care. I think you misunderstand about our user-part legal system. That IS what we have. If you lose a frivolous law suit you are stuck with lawyer/court fees - including those of the accused. For that reason, people are trying to get rich quick on the backs of ppl for crazy reasons..,having everyone absorbing their malpractice insurance costs.
Again, you’re making my point for me. If pharmaceutical companies were allowed to compete with each other transparently, the costs would be much lower. And please, explain to me how, when the cost of government regulation is accounted for, you are getting the cheapest healthcare? It’s impossible. Bureaucracy always leads to higher cost and less efficiency in literally every system of government. If the government didn’t regulate healthcare, companies would be forced to compete with each other and be transparent with their prices. That’s how capitalism works. And yes, I know how the university system works, but I’m sure as hell not paying for someone else to go to college. And I’m talking about the United States. I don’t care about your system. As far as off-label prescriptions, you are, again, making my point. I am telling you explicitly that the American healthcare system is broken, but not because we need more governmental regulation. It is broken because we have too much regulation. I cannot and will not agree with your notion that socialized medicine is better and / or cheaper. The government ruins everything that it touches. I’m posting a follow-up video now. You’re welcome to have a video debate with me if you like, as well. This is your official invitation.
Pragmatic Prepper yet you fail to acknowledge when something is working when you see it. We pay less and get fully taken care of. Your GOVERNMENT pays more and leaves a ton to be desired....because of decisions that your government is making with your money. Why is it so complicated for Americans to have a look at what others are doing that works? It's like anything else. Everyone has an opinion about how to raise a kid. But if you want some good advice, ask someone who's done it successfully. Our system is working for less money. What's the mystery?
Carol Fraughton your system is not working. You have a massive refugee program and your healthcare sucks. That’s why the US is still the most desired destination in the world, has the strongest economy, the greatest military, and the American dollar is the world currency. Tell me again how great your system is.
Pragmatic Prepper clearly, you no nothing about our healthcare so you're better off not expressing an unqualified opinion on it. As far as America being the best place to live: that's just been a laughable conversation about a number of people from a variety of countries and the world..., all of whom consider that to be a huge bragadocious, ego based American fallacy. There are few developed countries in the world with the wealth in the USA... And none that have the levels and numbers who suffer in poverty and lack of opportunity. Ask non-americans if they could live ANYWHERE. I promise, only Americans share your fantasy
Pragmatic Prepper out of 50 of the richest developed countries in the world , the USA is in the top ten for poverty rates...but among the highest for overall wealth. That's not cool.
💯❤💯❤💯❤💯
Principals? And what might they be. Simply freedoms without rules, regulations and responsibilities? You really are an American.

I will remind you that the election was won by less than 50 percent of your country's population. Still the minority.
