Funny. Step up with what? The Europeans have no ability to wage war nor do they have the ability to help Ukraine wage war. Other than the British, the Europeans would be useless in a war.

The owner needs to go to prison for a minimum of 10 years and if the girl dies, life. It's the only thing that worked in America to get idiots to stop getting these dogs or if they do making it so it can't hurt anyone..

I really don't understand why people are so negative now. • Will we see more war or less? Less, a lot less. • More poverty or greater prosperity? Greater prosperity for all. • Will environmental challenges worsen, or will we make progress in fixing them? The ones we can fix we'll fix, the ones we can't, we'll adjust. • Will human rights and equality improve, or will they decline? Improve greatly. • Will people be healthier due to better awareness of health and technology, or will poor diet and lifestyle choices continue to take a toll? Gotta go with the poor diet and lifestyle choices on this one. • Will AI become a true game-changer, or will it simply evolve into a more advanced and user-friendly search tool? It's already a game changer. • And for Gen Z, will they find themselves in a better world or a more challenging one? A much better one.

Completely agree and its only going to get worse. They won't give people with legitimate pain any pain medication anymore but they'll give them all the mind destroying medications they want.

If it is true that left wing people predominantly take these drugs that would be a genuine health concern.

People makes these statements but what exactly did Trump do to make that happen? Yeah, I know, you don't know. Medications go up for all kinds of reasons.

Those prices seem ridiculously high. .....four surgeries to remove infected tissue, incurring medical expenses of £15,300 (approximately 651,000 baht). .....expected total expenses reaching at least £33,300 (about 1.42 million baht). A commercial flight with a stretcher could cost around £42,500 (approximately 1.81 million baht), while an air ambulance is estimated at £140,000 (about 5.97 million baht).

I've been gambling in casinos in America many times and have not witnessed any violence whatsoever.

That is comical. So now people are going to become tire experts and evaluate their own tires?

No, justice would be the owner going to prison for a few years, paying all medical bills and some restitution to the kid, say, $1 million baht.

There is no solution to this problem without enforcement. The bad air, dangerous driving, etc. are all unsolvable problems because they refuse to enforce anything. What good are traffic laws when so many drivers just ignore them? What good is having laws against burning when so many ignore them. This is not a Thai thing either. In America, people burning trash and littering didn't stop until the authorities starting fining people and threatening them with jail time. People don't care about stopping burning and polluting the air to keep from killing people, including themselves, but they do care if they are fined $1000.

Natural gas burns extremely clean. That's not the problem.

You must be a lot of fun at parties.

Trump didn't have anywhere near a billion dollars for his campaign. If you're going to make stuff up at least make it plausible.

I believe Obamacare took care of that issue but that is also one of the reasons why healthcare insurance is so expensive. They need to drastically lower the prices of medical care in the U.S..

Life expectancy is not a good indicator of healthcare. I saw a study a while back that determined that the U.S. had the second highest life expectancy when removing murders, suicides and accidents, which would be actual life expectancy. We have way too many murders and suicides, far more than any other country and they are usually very young people so that brings life expectancy way down.

This is actually more of the issue than insurance companies. I read an article a while back that compared cost of procedures between the EU and the U.S.A.. One example was some kind of breast cancer treatment. It cost $1500 USD in the EU but it was $5500 USD in the U.S.A..

Was this before or after Obamacare passed?

Yeah in a subsequent post I read the actual denial rate was 37%. But, even at 37% I or someone I know should have seen a denial. I'm not saying it doesn't happen but it would seem it happens in specific instances for specific types of care and not overall.

Maybe I am just lucky but I have never had a claim denied and I don't know anybody who has. At a 90% denial rate I should have been denied multiple times and same with people I know.

I really don't have a problem with Biden pardoning his son but the idea that he was selectively and unfairly prosecuted is nonsense. Anybody caught lying on a Federal firearms form or not paying millions of dollars in taxes would be prosecuted and in prison. Biden pardoning his son just proves that there are plenty of people who are above the law no matter what people say.

You missed a really important space between "a" and "typical", bro.

It depends on what you mean by better off. For some, America is the greatest place to live and for some it isn't. One thing that is absolutely true is that more people want to come to America than any other place in the world and also absolutely true, we allow more people into our country than anybody else. For the most part, these folks are doing well and living good lives. The problem with making these comparisons is that it all depends on what you value the most. You ask for examples for freedoms and then denigrate the most obvious answers but that its what you think. Other people don't necessarily think or value those freedoms the same as you do. Just because you don't like a particular place doesn't mean everybody else sees it like you do. People should just evaluate wherever they would like to live for themselves and make a decision. You are not more right for whatever decision you make and they are not either.

I would recommend you just don't read them and see how that goes.

If the Democrats wanted to win the Presidency again all they had to do was nominate a semi decent candidate. They started with Joe Biden who was senile 4 years ago and that didn't work. Now they are going with Kamala Harris. Just sad and the only reason Trump has a chance to be President again. Pennsylvania Governor Shapiro would have crushed Trump. Senator Joe Manchin would have crushed Trump too but the Democrats essentially kicked him out of the party. Tulsi Gabbard would have destroyed Trump but they forced her out of the party too. Gavin Newsom would have beaten Trump too. This ridiculous post talks about low IQ Republicans but low IQ Democrats are the reason Trump even has a chance to be President again. The average American voter has no clue how our government even works, has no clue what is actually going on politically, has no clue what is going on around the world and is just, in general, completely clueless about anything but their favorite sports team. Democrats and Republicans, equally dumb and this includes the phony Independents who only vote for one party and call themselves Independents.
