PaulSmith69, there are different degrees of governing regulations from the extremes of fascism to complete lack of governing, (i.e. anarchy). Do you prefer a government with no law and order, or just government laws and regulations that do not apply to you or conflict with your personal preferences?
Were discussing a wide spectrum of governing systems. I suppose neither one of us are advocating the extreme positions?
Respectfully, Supposn
You're assuming that the problem is laziness, but there's no evidence for that.
Think about your recommended solution, which is to provide "incentive" to "improve one's self". If a person has no interest in improving themselves, "incentives" won't help. If a person DOES have an interest in improving themselves, they don't need an "incentive".
Secondly, suppose you succeed in forcing a "lazy person" to either work or starve. How do you suppose he will perform on the job?
Your "solution" is part of the problem.
Kode, I didn't find the way to send you an personal message through Political Fray. I posted a message within the Feedback forum.
the thread's entitled, " Is this my fault or Political Fray's software bug? ". Respectfully Supposn
PaulSmith69 & Kode, what are you guys opinions regarding reducing of obstacles hindering persons to improve themselves? Would that be preferable? Respectfully, Supposn.
Kode, other nations spend much less than the USA per capita of their populations or students, and the products of some of those nations’ training and educational systems are superior to ours.
Many nations low-cost mass transportation that enable poorer workers reach their jobs, are superior to ours.
Many nations ACTUALLY have affordable medical care available to all their citizens.
Many nations’ proportional segment of middle-income earners are increasing significantly; USA’s proportion of middle-income earners are stagnant, if not actually shrinking.
USA does not accomplish everything in a superior manner; (i.e. the sun don’t shine out of our posteriors).
Respectfully, Supposn
Yes. I know that. I was asking for you to identify some of the obstacles to which you refer.
Ok. You asked for opinions on specific issues. Let's examine them...
Over 75% of the public wants Medicare for All, but the only way we will get it is by getting suitable Democrats in office and get Republicans out.
Our middle class is shrinking because of Republican attacks on our income. Trump has given us tax cuts for the rich that either do not fairly benefit the middle class or actually harms us depending on income. He has harmed us in many other ways that result in life expectancy declining, like pre-existing conditions being excludable, poisonous water, opioid addictions due to prescription drugs, cuts to services like the EPA, etc. But the only way we will get these things corrected at this point is by getting suitable Democrats in office and get Republicans out.
Most Americans like the idea of better mass transportation, but the only way we will get it is by getting suitable Democrats in office and get Republicans out.
