  1. Dude, just stop. There is an enormous amount of space to have an intelligent discussion of pragmatic U.S. options to support Ukraine to include offering no support whatsoever. That discussion is impossible to have with someone who uses secondhand Russian propaganda to develop their worldview.

  3. You’re not missing anything. When will all the jackasses in this country actually learn how incredible valuable our liberty and freedoms are, and how they do not exist anywhere else on earth. Why do we fight leftist bullshit? Because we don’t want to live in a country who tells someone they’re not allowed to make health decisions for themselves (spoiler, our society/gov has already demonstrated the desire to do exactly that).

  5. This is why healthcare/insurance needs to be removed from employment. It was originally used as a way of bargaining with union employees as a way to avoid taxes, etc. Just pay people their wage/salary and then allow them as people to find their own healthcare and insurance. Also, we need to treat healthcare and health insurance as two totally different things. Treat routing health care (the flu, basic bone breaks, strep, basic prescriptions, etc) like basic car needs (ie oil change, new battery, etc)—you pay out of pocket. And treat health insurance for treatment that will not be used often, if ever (major surgeries, cancer treatments, costly disease prescriptions) like car insurance for when you have a bad accident/total your car…you have a high deductible that you can save for in case it’s needed but won’t go bankrupt as well. I’m sure I could have worded it better, but I think you get the idea. Expecting great healthcare for a much less direct cost to you means that someone else is going to be picking up the tab.

  6. Don’t be a hard ass; he obviously just wants to know the pulse of the force bra. He’s totally not a non-aviation front office worm that told a GO he had inroads with the cool kids. He even said “fr tho” so you know it’s a young “enthusiast.” Super common word for kids to say. And his username says Butt: so edgy, trust high.

  8. Some epic idiocy/trolling here. But I'll bite, because this is the Internet! --You claim "we" should negotiate to give up some of Ukraine. Do you think maybe the Ukrainians should decide whether or not they want THEIR country? They seem pretty willing to fight for it. --You seem to think the nation that took massive casualties, is resorting to Iranian and North Korean weapons, has a ton of sanctions, had their most effective PMC mutiny, and is at a defensive stalemate on the battlefield is stronger now? 😂 You can debate how much money/arms the US should provide. That's valid. What you are doing is a mockery of intelligent questioning.

  9. They did exactly this to my Mom before she died. We got the denial letter after she was in the ground. It's been a year, I'm still pissed. Employer of picks for almost all Americans.

  10. No, dude. You asked a bunch of strawman/loaded questions based off of one of the most clearly biased pro-russia American commentators and Russian aligned sources. THAT is why so many called you out. It's not zealotry when people criticize clearly biased and VERY often wrong sources. Ukraine is fighting an existential war vs. Russia pursuing an entirely optional one. That does mean something. Additionally, UKR is getting a LOT of external support. That doesn't mean they will win, but it does mean they do have a chance.

  12. When do insurance companies say you don’t have a right to try something? This situation is not the same as saying “we won’t pay for X.” This is straight up the government telling someone they don’t get a say in the matter of their own life.

  15. I think I speak for just about everyone here when I say that your first post is not what an aviation enthusiast would first ask. Political leadership first question because you’re an aviation enthusiast?—really? We’ll moderate the content for the time being.

  17. They did it before with UPT Next at Austin. This will be 2.5 studs going straight to heavy FTUs in lieu of track select. Next was handpicked studs with experienced IPs. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  18. That’s crazy. I know plenty of people (and tons more according to word of mouth) that were sub 60. Maybe it’s your browser search history holding you back! Also, the NFA needs to die immediately.

  25. Learn from the covid failure and move on. That's it. I will not wear masks again to the 7-11. I'll wear one in a hospital, if they make me. I took the vaccine under good faith (retired, no one made me). Now the government, will have one less person willing to give our civilian leaders and the government (city, state, federal, doesn't matter) the benefit of the doubt on the next big "safety" problem they throw at us. If anything, the Covid debacle has taken what little faith I had in our civilian leadership and flushed it down the toilet. I dont trust them to do whats right. They just want my money and freedom.

  26. The problem is not that Ukraine bought the American vice president. The problem is that the American vice president was for sale. There's not a country on earth that wouldn't make that deal.

  29. well 6 of yours, half a dozen of mine. I find for-profit incorporations (HMO/PPO/Medicare part C) exercising that same supposed level of life censorship, a rank distinction without difference. That, "leftist bullshit" does not make.

  31. When you have to stoop to Russian bot or propaganda accusations to “beat” a questioners post, you might be a zealot. I hope I’m wrong and the country with 36mil remaining citizens (~6 mil refugees) can beat the country with 143 million citizens. I simply wondered aloud if we’re pursuing the best strategic policy, and you guys have assured me we are. I’ll quit watching world news and stick to CNN and Fox.
