FWIW, healthcare insurance shareholders aren't getting rich

The top shareholders and the executives are. Hence Luigi.

The main driver of high cost in the US is the providers, not the insurers

The insurers are motivated to drive health care costs up by the so-called affordable care act, which caps their profits at a percentage of those costs. Since they're not the ones paying the bills, the insured are (and via APTC, the government is, which means the taxpayers are) they want those costs to go up because they get to collect more profit. You need to not ignore reality if you want it to make sense.

"Medicare for all" is a sham.

"sabbede" is a dumbfuck.

Medicare is age restricted

The proposals address that, because the people who write them are not dumbfucks. Also, there are already people who are less than 65 getting Medicare. They have disabilities. The BASIS code for their Medicare eligibility is "D" instead of "A", for disabled instead of aged. Maybe don't fucking try to educate me about things you know fuck-all about? TBF that means you shouldn't try to educate me about anything, but that would be just peachy.

The major advantage is being able to use an engine that's worthless for acceleration, e.g. Atkinson cycle. All ICEs are most efficient at a specific point on the torque/RPM chart so that's not the differentiator.

Regen braking is the biggest benefit in the city. It's essentially irrelevant everywhere else, but whether it matters most or not depends on where you're driving.

South Dakota is a state full of retirement homes and very few other employment opportunities.

Nothing could be more compatible with American crony capitalism than just continually building retirement homes in SD and sending poor old people there to die. But they will need to find some way to give out some nursing degrees.

Real talk though, there's no chance of SD attracting CA's workforce by changing policy.

True, because they will never have any self-awareness in SD or any other flyover state. They will cry and complain about how they can't attract these professionals but they won't make any changes to the shitty society that drove those people away in the first place.

Leaving sunny CA to live in a tundra and probably be a cowboy is simply a non-starter.

There are people who would prefer the weather there, but still won't move there because they don't want to deal with the provincial hicks in sticks bullshit. THAT is the non-starter, which as you said, is not going to change.

Define "working society". Are you including the people who shoplift/steal items and make their living selling them at popup flea markets?

Boosters are risking their freedom and even their lives. If it was easier for them to find work then they'd do legitimate work instead of boosting. Selling at flea markets is a job itself, so they're clearly willing to work.

haha good one, the boys down at the maga rally will get a real kick out of it as you stroke eachother off

You have it exactly right. I can see why you didn't post with an identity, you'd get punished by the reich wingers. Wage theft exceeds all other theft combined but maggots are still crying about shoplifters
