Do you think? This is yet another "no fucking shit" conclusion.
Just look in the political arena, critical thinking is MIA. Americans buy and sell spoon fed FAKE NEWS. They swallow whole without reflex, people unable to analyze anything are the reason we have the politicians and the media we have. We deserve them, the liars fill a desire for simple solutions.
I feel you pain, honestly, I do. Hope and Change and the War on Poverty.
You can keep your doctor and I'm going to improve healthcare quality, cover more people AND REDUCE COSTS. When somebody hears something like that, they should think BULLSHIT. But they don't, they actually think those things are compatible.
