Study: Increasing minimum wage does not reduce jobs
  • Eastern Washington state borders Idaho. Idaho consistently fought Masking and quarantine. Many people from Idaho would become infected with Covid and rely on a state that did participate in masking and quarantine to help them when their own government refused to provide adequate services and policies. Washington state was already dealing with its own people, and had a hard enough time providing support without a bunch of Idahoans flooding in when they found out the hard way.

    While I empathize with the individual, I feel there should have been Covid tests at the border.

    You’re starting to sound like a Covid denier who doesn’t understand that while we are “united” under one federal government, each state has vastly different ideas of sanity.

  • Study: Increasing minimum wage does not reduce jobs
  • You’re not understanding the reality of how the current system works. You’re arguing from a place of fantasy.

    In an ideal world, this wouldn’t even be a problem. Healthcare would be free, and hospitals would be over staffed with low patient ratios and plenty of beds.

    Don’t complain to me about reality.

  • Study: Increasing minimum wage does not reduce jobs
  • Every hospital in the world has a capacity they can support. You must be saying “they need a bigger hospital!” Which I’m sure they are aware of, but building that and staffing that isn’t always feasible with the budget they are given.

    And not everyone has to pay. The hospital there is a charity and provides care regardless of the ability for the patient to pay—which cuts into that budget for more staffing and buildings.

    During Covid, Idaho pretty much threw their hands up and said “go to Spokane” where people were lining the halls on beds dying because they didn’t have enough respirators for that many people.

    So, it’s a common opinion in Spokane that Idaho needs to fuck off and take care of their own.

  • Once upon a time in Canada, there was a kid named Bane Edgelord. Unlike most of his classmates, who spent their evenings enjoying hockey or maple syrup (as one does in Canada), Bane had a different hobby: staying up all night arguing with strangers on the internet about the United States, particularly their healthcare system.

    He knew nothing about healthcare, mind you, but that didn’t stop him. Bane thought he was an edgy badass, telling anyone who would listen that America's system was broken and that Canadians were far superior. But here’s the catch: no one actually cared what Bane thought.

    One night, Bane launched into a tirade in an online forum about how America’s healthcare was a "disaster," how it was "run by greedy capitalists," and how "Canadians did it better." Of course, he had no idea what he was talking about. When someone asked him what a deductible was, he dodged the question, thinking his general disdain was enough to win the argument. Spoiler: it wasn’t.

    He stayed up all night typing furiously at the keyboard, convinced that he was shaking the very foundation of the internet. Meanwhile, everyone in the forum had moved on to discuss pizza toppings.

    By the time morning rolled around, Bane was exhausted, missed school for the third time that week, and officially failed out of his classes. His teachers gave up, his friends stopped calling, and his future in education was toast.

    Now, Bane lives in his mom’s basement, still convinced he's fighting the good fight. He spends his days watching YouTube videos about conspiracy theories and posting angry comments about American healthcare without realizing no one’s reading them. But hey, at least Bane still thinks he’s cool.

    And so, Bane Edgelord remained in his basement, a self-proclaimed internet warrior—forever typing, forever ignored.

    The end. Goodnight kiddo 💋

    They can’t actually believe this, right? This is just nonsense to get the morons upset. He can’t really be that stupid.

    What timeline is this? 😭
