    The US Supreme Court has just abolished Affirmative Action in regards to college/university admissions. Do you believe this is right or wrong?

    It's of my opinion that affirmative action isn't a suitable solution. Quotas led to issues within my medical school for those who struggled to qualify scholastically to finish the program. They struggled, dropped out, and then spots were lost that couldn't be filled. College level is not the...

    Homebrew PS4 FW 7.02 kernel exploit released by TheFlow

    I just want to chime in and say it was interesting to see this development in the PS4 scene but I sold my dusty 5.05FW PS4 Pro for $580 on ebay during the beginning of the Covid-19 quarantine. Given that more and more console titles are finding their way to PC I'm hesitating on buying a day 1...

    North American Super Nintendo World park location will open in 2023 as part of Epic Universe

    I'm not going to disclose where I live but it's quite presumptuous for you to assert something like knowing where I reside in the US. Furthermore, your logic of worker's smiles is akin to complaining about every hospitality service as 'fake'. Breaking news: Chick-fil-a employees lied when they...

    North American Super Nintendo World park location will open in 2023 as part of Epic Universe

    Everything in moderation. I find theme parks are best enjoyed by waiting until you have a different group of people to go with. Be it family, friends, coworkers. If it's viewed as a shared experience, the dynamic of a new group each visit brings something new. I will be looking forward to...

    Healthcare in the USA is a joke and I'll tell you why

    I agree with this as well. Employer's should have never been linked to our health insurance. 11 of our states have an insurance commissioners that are elected, the rest are appointed (who is bothering to ask Governors who they are appointing for their insurance commissioner?). Either way...

    Healthcare in the USA is a joke and I'll tell you why

    Well I appreciate your insight, I can see the raised concerns. It sounds like there is a power imbalance on the patient autonomy in directing healthcare vs physician expertise where you are located. While I don't foresee these type of issues becoming systemic in an expansion of healthcare in...

    Healthcare in the USA is a joke and I'll tell you why

    As someone who is also familiar with patients in the ER, much of your complaints are the same here in the US, despite that we appear to differ on what is an acceptable method of payment for healthcare services (ie taxation for nationalized healthcare vs privatized insurance w/ co-payments)...

    Democrats vow to probe BuzzFeed report Trump directed Michael Cohen to lie to Congress

    Well, you'd be looking at Republicans not being the honest people as they conducted and ran the Benghazi investigation. I'm not sure where you are going with that statement. auto That would be fine if Trump's administration didn't blow the statistics out of proportion. You (republicans, not...

    Trump Impeachment: Public Hearings Have Begun

    SCOTUS hearing those cases in my understanding are because of a variety of different reasons due to each case having a different set of arguments for seeking the information and the white-house refusing while seeking an appeal to a higher court. Not all of the are congress seeking information...

    Kamala Harris Drops Out - Democrats Concerned Their Remaining Candidates Won't Win 2020

    Are you referring to Jeff Van Drew? He's not a senator. He's in the house. He's also not much of an established democrat, as he just came into office this year. He comes from a purple district that Trump had support in 2016. I'm not familiar with his voting record. It could be possible that he...

    Trump Impeachment: Public Hearings Have Begun

    Noted, I remember reading about a juvenile dui as well that his dad helped seal but that may have been taken out of context, this was a while ago during his campaign for office. If I can produce it I will, otherwise I'll agree it was the one. As far as pushing influence. DUI's are often disputed...

    Trump Impeachment: Public Hearings Have Begun

    A hyper-partisan like @cots (the same one who I presume blocked me due to me pointing out his inconsistencies on this thread and others) insists that democrats exclusively pre-planned impeachment. That narrative was disproven earlier in this thread as multiple republican congressmen pledged to...

    Trump Impeachment: Public Hearings Have Begun

    Its entirely comical that the Floridan representative that brought that up, he himself struggles with alcohol and had his dad use his political influence to bail himself out of multiple dwi's. Whether or not that allegation brought forth today is true or not. No one has asserted Biden's son...

    Trump Impeachment: Public Hearings Have Begun

    Hyper-partisan view from @cots. It can equally be argued that republicans refuse to even acknowledge direct evidence presented by either witness testimony, call memorandum, or Giuliani's interviews vs a preferred right-wing narrative that there lies 'no evidence whatsoever'. @cots also...
