After $700 Million U.S. Bailout, Trucking Firm Is Shutting Down
Yellow, which received a pandemic loan, is winding down operations ahead of an expected bankruptcy filing. The closure of the company would mean the loss of about 30,000 jobs.

Weird that people from all these great places come to America for real Healthcare. That's weird. There is many reasons why people are broke. Some of them are self inflicted, some aren't.
They come to America for very specialized health care, and only that.
And you know why?
They won't be bankrupted for an injury or illness in their own countries, and not a god damn one of them is going to sign up for American health care once they look at the medical bills we get for routine shit.
So strange that while the Healthcare is free that it takes months on a waiting list to get basic surgery. That most of it can't be done there. Almost like the hospitals don't have the time or money to treat everyone. I'm sure it's just a coincidence.
Repeating bumper sticker slogans doesn't change facts.
If Europeans wanted American-style health care, every European country would have it. They don't. They'd rather not mortgage their homes for health care like we do.
There's a reason why the rest of the world doesn't do health care the way they do. They don't want to be left for dead when they can't pay a price-gouged medical bill.
Well that would be a huge bumper sticker. No idea where you found that before. You really think the people have a choice? The European people have less of a say about their government than we do.

Nope. But do go on about things you know little about.
Glass houses blah blah blah.
You and I both know that the odds are stacked, between the haves, and have nots. And for the halves to tell the have nots to suck it up and just pull up on their bootstraps doesn't always work.
The first group of people (aka haves) getting into power forceify their power base so that only they and their friends benefit from it.
Democracy is supposed to prevent that, but it's only as good at preventing that as it is the people you elect to office.
I wasn't born with a silver spoon up my ass. I worked my ass off and used any resources that I could find. It took time and hard work. I didn't sit around waiting for a handout and being upset at the world for not getting it.
I did as well, and was successful in doing so, but it definately wasn't a fair/equal field to walk through, which goes to my point.
The world isn't fair. It is impossible to be fair to everyone and having and real world experience would show they. Especially since fair is subjective.
The World is what you make of it.
The world is what it is currently. You can change your perspective or option on it, but that is only internal. You can change how you react and deal with the world.
You've missed the understanding of what that phrase represents.
I'm pretty sure you are taking that quote way to literally. That or you apply it to others and not yourself.
That or you apply it to others and not yourself.
What proof do you have of this?
