We came within a gnat's ass of a total economic meltdown and I give Obama great credit for avoided that, I just wish he had done more because we did get the worst rescission in 80 years and that could have been avoided if he had also bailed out Lehman brothers. Fun Fact: the loans were paid back by 2012 and the government actually ended up making 266.7 billion dollars out of the bailout deal due to interest and dividends. > > There are hardly any, billionaire good guys, > I don't agree with that at all! Bill Gates has saved more lives and reduced the net amount of misery in the world VASTLY more than Mother Teresa ever did. Gates has already given away 50 billion dollars and he isn't finished yet, and just as important he has given away the money very intelligently (mostly in the third world) to maximize the number of lives saved. Gates gave it away so wisely that Warren Buffet asked Gates to figure out how to best give away his money too. If I could be assured that all future billionaires would be like them I wouldn't worry so much, but there is no such assurance. > > *which is why the globalist crap has been pushed by both parties,* > I said it before I'll say it again, in the era of Trump its absolutely nuts to claim there is any sort of moral equivalence between the two political parties. > *> For a health care plan that beats UK style ones* [...] > Beats the UK style health plan? You are ambitious! I'd be delighted if the USA had a plan that was half as good. John K Clark -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
