Serious / Re: Breaking news: the NHS is still fucking terrible

Hey, you should come to the US and see how the health care here is!

It's totally privatized
LOL

Then what the fuck is medicare, medicaid and the ACA?
Fine. Totally privatized is an exaggeration that I didn't notice I made, but medicaid and medicare are very barebones and limited in scope. ACA is definitely a step in the right direction though and I hope it is the basis for making health care more of a Government service rather than a private service.
The ACA is corporatist shit.  It does nothing to make healthcare a public service.  You need to do more research.

Probably Johnson if Rand keeps up the Republican corporate kiss-ass banter.

Next to him I'd welcome Bernie Sanders just to see how much he can fuck things up.

i don't know anything about venezuela
It's actually fascinating.  They just nationalized the food industry and raised the minimum wage 30%.  Place is a shit hole.

So Verbatim, if capitalism is so full of "teh evulz", what other system do you propose? Something that wouldn't work in reality, I'd imagine.
socialism

didn't work in the past =/= can't ever be done correctly
Still not working in the present.

Case and point: Venezuela

I prefer a homemade toothpaste consisting of lemon oil, green tea leaves, and truffle oil.

Makes your breath smell like ass and doesn't do shit for gum health.

Serious / Re: Should we allow private prisons?

Privatize individual blocks, and don't allow a single company to own more than one block in any one prison.

It would be funny.

Fred.  It's one of those episodes that's backstory you can't really comprehend as a kid.  But growing up, learning about Trichotemnomania, and watching it again has shed a new light on it.

584
you'd be perfectly fine with that and wouldn't tell anybody?
I'd block them and forget about the issue. I wouldn't go "Oh look, a closeted congressman" and then run to the press with it.
Is it bad that I'd probably sell them to some tabloid?
No.  There's an argument to be made that as soon as he sent those images out they entered the public domain.

The Flood / Re: How many people here have a 144hz Monitor?
« on: May 02, 2015, 04:52:32 AM »
I play on a 60 Hz television.  I'll get a 144 Hz monitor someday, but right now my two main focuses are an i7 and a 980.

587
yes, in order to get your message heard in a capitalistic society, you need to take advantage of capitalism

even if your message is that capitalism is evil (and it is)

i don't see your point
it's not like we can just opt out of capitalism if we disagree with it
You can at least take measures to mitigate your profits.  The fact that he's profiting off of an anti-capitalist message is laughable.  It's the same reason why I can't take Rage Against the Machine's political message seriously, even if they make good music.

I can draw the entire earth from memory but I don't have any poster board large enough, or a way to get it on the internet.

you seem to think that just because i'm against mods, you must think i'm against ALL CHANGE
which is absolutely fucktarded

i'm only against pissing on ART
and that's what mods do

changing a car's tires has FUCK ALL to do with anything
Except cars can easily be considered art.  Hell, there are more cars in museums than there are video games.  cars are designed to fit a function, sure, but anyone can put a box frame on wheels and make it go.  You have different designs for cars because each designer (artist) has a different vision for what makes a better automobile.

Hell, I can draw up more analogies:

Standard / limited / collector's edition = ST / LX / EX
Season pass = warranty
Patches = routine maintenance

Yes, liberal arts degrees are a waste of time.

Yes it it, which is why I'm not getting one.
so why are questions about ribbon mics in your final?

I'm getting a Bachelor's Degree in something else. Would Music Production Technology be a liberal arts degree?
>wasting money on a MPT degree when you could be using that money to buy professional recording equipment and learning how to use it by watching YouTube videos

My 10-year-old sister plays that game series, which automatically means that it was designed for autists.

That's high-functioning.

I mean the other kind.

She does have a learning disability, though.

Watching any of the Funhaus guys play GTA V makes me want to put my head in a deep fryer.  Even if that's what makes the videos hilarious at times.

I haven't been on as much because I've been busy with work, my social life and video games.  Not to mention the serious board, aside from current events, has pretty much run out of things to discuss.

>Canada


Canada is one of the few Western, Industrialized countries I dislike more than the US. Good job Canada.
Fuck you, man. Canada is the bomb.
At least the US has a much richer diversity of climate (the only country with every climate in the world) and isn't completely depopulated outside of the major urban centers. That, and the only person from Canada I know who I actually like is Sandtrap. But he kind of lives in rural nowhere.

The USA is literally a trillion times better than Greece
>Aegean Sea
>Greek food
>Greek climate

>lol

The Pacific Ocean is a garbage cesspool. Literally. Aegean sea is fucking beautiful. I can practically live in that water.....
>Greek economy
>American wealth inequality
Richer economies have a higher wealth inequality.  It's just the nature of things.
