American Politics III: New President, Same Old Country

[No State Here]

No I didn't. Your saying compromise bad and everyone should stick do their corners and insist on everything they want or the highway.

Yes, you did. I'm saying compromise can ruin the morality of a decision, and you're making a strawman.

You’re comparing healthcare to genocide

[Cordel One]

Yes, you did. I'm saying compromise can ruin the morality of a decision, and you're making a strawman.

You’re comparing healthcare to genocide

I'm comparing the capitalist system that denies healthcare to millions in need to genocide now, but that wasn't even my original point.

[Senkaku]

Yes, you did. I'm saying compromise can ruin the morality of a decision, and you're making a strawman.

You’re comparing healthcare to genocide

No, they posted a cartoon that makes a point about why compromise as an end unto itself is foolish. Simmer down

[San Lumen]

No I didn't. Your saying compromise bad and everyone should stick do their corners and insist on everything they want or the highway.

Yes, you did. I'm saying compromise can ruin the morality of a decision, and you're making a strawman.

Do you therefore agree you can't always get what you want and have to work out a deal to get something passed?

[Cordel One]

Yes, you did. I'm saying compromise can ruin the morality of a decision, and you're making a strawman.

Do you therefore agree you can't always get what you want and have to work out a deal to get something passed?

That's true, but it often defeats the purpose of what you want and becomes immoral.

The problem arises when you hold up compromise as an end in itself, regardless of who you're asking people to compromise with and what about.

[San Lumen]

That's true, but it often defeats the purpose of what you want and becomes immoral.

What do you suggest occur instead? How would you govern?

your expectation that anyone challenging your beliefs needs to be able to present a fully-formed whole-of-government plan to operationalize their ideas strikes me as a weird one

and even if it weren't, Cordel's laid out the broad strokes answer to that question for you many times before, so I doubt an answer is going to really cover any new ground

Biden says all Americans could have access to vaccine by spring

President Joe Biden says he anticipates that coronavirus vaccines will be delivered to 1 million Americans per day within the next three weeks, and that the medicines should be available to anyone in the nation who wants it by Spring.

Biden added that he thought the nation would soon get to 1.5 million vaccines per day, noting logistical hurdles that have stalled distribution and left many Americans frustrated they can’t get shots.

“I feel confident that by summer we’re going to be well on our way to heading toward herd immunity and increasing the access for people who aren’t on the first on the list,” Biden said Monday after a ceremony to sign an order to boost government spending on American products.

Biden also repeated his warning that the death count from the virus will continue to rise, and defended his administration’s timeline for stopping it.

“It’s beginning to move but I’m confident that we will beat this,” Biden said. “But we will still be talking about this in the summer. We will still be dealing with this issue in the early fall.”

In some good news, the government has decided to approve of all business deals involving the Houthis which means that companies wont be sanctioned for something as simple as selling them food, baby formula, etc. At least for one month. I'm not a fan of the Houthis but this does allow companies to sell much needed resources given the worsening famine that is ongoing in Yemen.

You reflexively defend existing methods and institutions, make wild generalizations about your ideological opponents, and grandstand all the time on the importance of compromise and party unity and the like. You prefer other people offer "solutions" rather than engaging with you in kind, because it raises the bar for how much effort people have to put in to dismantle your unconscious assumption that the current way of doing things is necessarily the right one.

Sounds more like he's trying to cover his own ass tbh.

Ah man, don't make big promises. Just look at the people who don't understand math. At noon on the equinox this thread will be full of "It's spring and I'm not vaccinated you giant piece of shit..."

I have confidence in him to achieve it but i think by the fall many current measures will be gone.

Some of my family members have already gotten the vaccine. I don't think it too unlikely Biden's goal will be reached.

Good! I hope I get vaccinated soon. It's good that Biden is finally president now.

It depends on the scenario. I have explained it to you a few times in the past.

your expectation that anyone challenging your beliefs needs to be able to present a fully-formed whole-of-government plan to operationalize their ideas strikes me as a weird one

Ask generalized questions, get generalized answers.
