You said that capitalists in non-healthcare industry will continue to allow higher healthcare costs, despite it being a giant drag on their bottom line, because they might own some healthcare stocks. And I am the one who doesn't "know how the economy works"

yes, you do not understand how the economy or capitalism itself works

oxsnard posted:

My point is that capitalists, while being greedy fucks, will advocate for lower healthcare costs once it materially benefits them. HC costs can't just keep lapping GDP forever. Either it all burns down or the other non-healthcare businesses will collectively stop it. M4A is probably the easiest route

they�ll just stop offering health benefits, the capitalist has no qualms about their employees dying of a tooth ache

Pembroke Fuse posted:

It implies that all (or even a majority of) oil company owners also hold health care stock, which no one has actually shown to be the case. You can make the argument that the stock market is so diffuse that pretty much every major investor has some portion of health care stocks, no matter how small, but that's not quite the same thing (and also implies that someone would oppose M4A even if a tiny portion of their portfolio was health-care stocks).

alright good point. but those that do hold major investments in health care stocks aren't going to want that investment to lose value

If both of you are taking that away from that sentence, then I don't think we're going to really see eye to eye on this issue; as I was merely pointing out that the pushback to women and minorities that dislike Bernie comes from people who are not women and minorities; I made no assessment whatsoever about the nature and homogeneity of Bernie's supporters are large. Have a good one!

Hieronymous Alloy posted:

It's more fundamental than that.

People chose sides in the 2016 primary and got into slapfights and got trolled by bots and so forth.

Net result they started viewing everything Bernie does through a negative, hostile partisan lens, so anything he does at all they see with a negative spin which reinforces their existing bias etc.

Pattern replicates constantly among the terminal donut Twitter types. Bernie Bad therefore Bernie Bad.

tl;dr broke brain morons remain broke brain morons 4 years later

bernie's plan will "eliminate tuition and fees at four-year public colleges and universities, tribal colleges, community colleges, trade schools, and apprenticeship programs"

this'll still leave lots of people going to private colleges, graduate schools, etc incurring student loan debt, and also probably a lot of people with free tuition still taking out some loans for cost-of-living

what the gently caress do you want. we both know its not full communism now so what are you complaining about with sentence 2

All of this of course dances around the real point, which is that you don�t think that a degree is a plus. Well, employers don�t agree with you. If you legislate away an employer�s ability to have that preference, you will only make hiring more arbitrary.

I understand you don�t really value education, hence, anti-intellectualism, like I said. Employers like education because it helps people see and understand nuance. You know what? I think I understand why leftists don�t see much use for it.

hiring is already completely arbitrary my dude. if you don't hit the right buzzwords in your resume the programs HR departments use trash it without a human being ever laying eyes on it
