Comment Doctors are so full of it (Score 1) 70

I have never had the same diagnosis from 2 doctors. I had a room of doctors completely disagree on a treatment. Some said bone death imminent without medicine while others thought it will resolve itself. Medicine is definitely not an exact science and needs serious changes in attitude to start healing people instead of focussing on how to charge more money.

Comment The Chinese view (Score 1) 85

They simply believe someone took dead animals from the lab and sold them at the market. But no, you cry, how could someone possibly travel day and age from a lab in Wuhan they do not live at, back to own their home, let alone to a market with over 1,000 shops selling freshly dead animals.

You already are at that level. 1 in 7 US males are effectively ineligible for work because of criminal records (because they make anything a criminal offence now). Millions see no point and drop out of college and have nothing to show for it. No chance to ever buy a house. There must be a huge society running in parallel with "society" that is never talked about.

Comment Why do this? (Score 1) 337

Because teachers have no authority over students and neither do parents anymore. Therefore no amount of time, effort and money can change their grades. so change how you grade. Meanwhile, you will keep importing already qualified people from countries that are harsh on school kids. Costs the federal, state and local government nothing, requires no behaviour change on anyone's part and you can even charge them the price of a house to immigrate (as student and charge them again to then reclass as a skilled migrant). For example - Indians have to memorise logarithms and major trigonometric values at school. Did you?

Unrelated fact: A recent case in Australia saw a Jewish soldier stripped of security access for training with IDF. He said during training he was told by officers Zionism is the only type of Judaism, look around you, how could it not be, and they only tell gullible foreigners they are not the same thing.
