Thanks .... my post was to dust .. will wait for his reply :thumbsup:

Hey Blondey, I never do links and I try not to respond personally to others. My computing skills are not that great when it comes to moving things from one spot to another. Unfortunately at this point I can not find where I saw each article or video and Google is now flooded with nonsense about George Floyd. When the video first surfaced and uncensored Floyd clearly pushes or falls into the officer as he gets out of the car. They then cuff him and sit him on the sidewalk. Then as they lead him to the car he falls down, at the time not sure if this was intentional to throw the cops off or if he is having some kind of issue. They then go to him on the ground with the officers restraining him until he is limp. Another video shows them pulling him from back seat. The officer statement after the incident states he was clostrphobic while in the back seat and having difficulty breathing so they take him out to the ground. While restraining him one officer says " I think he's suffering from proxidum or whatever" and he should be on his side. The coroner's report I was referring too came from the independent report not the Hennepin co. report which also included the cardiopulmonary arrest complicating law enforcement subdual.
Both saying he had fentanyl in his system.

Fentanyl at any level in the body can cause death, just ask Prince, it can cause breathing problems and heart attacks. The restraint was at the back of the neck, not the front, and he was still able to talk, so maybe it some what contributed to his shortness of breath I highly doubt a healthy human couldn't survive that. To all the doubters out there take a belt and wrap it around your neck til you can't breathe, make sure your are taking video of this, after 2 minutes try saying "I can't breathe". If you do this right I'm willing to bet 95% will not be able to talk at all. Its easy for people to judge these cops after the fact, there was no advantage to them to let Floyd die, they did what they thought was necessary at the time and now they have to live with their decisions the rest of their life. People are forced to make these types of decisions all the time, but when was the last time you seen a Doctor go to prison for making a bad decision?

Surprise, surprise the autopsy showed fentanyl intoxication and recent methamphetamine in this felon that many are calling a hero, along with hypertensive heart disease. The black folks really need to find some new hero's besides OJ, Bill Cosby, Tupac, and Rodney King. I know many people including many politicians that would like nothing more than to see all 4 officers drug thru the streets and lynched with out due process, and at this point it is far too late to ever get the truth. However the initial report of the cops included Floyd stumbling and the reason they took him from the back of the car to the ground was because he was having trouble breathing. The officers laid him on his side and restrained him thinking this was in the best interest of everybody's safety including Floyd's, clearly the ambulance was on its way as it arrived shortly after they did this. These cops have some medical training but in no way are they professionals or able to know what to do in every situation. Floyd was acting paranoid and clearly the fentanyl, meth, and problems breathing could have been the only factors that caused his death. There is no proof that the restraint is what actually killed him but in this curupt world we live we will never know. BLM and the Democrats have far too much to gain to ever have the truth known!
If he was already having problems breathing, then why did the Copper, put his knee and all his weight onto the guys neck then? Doesn't matter if he was under the influence of drugs, or not. He didn't deserve to die, in the way he did!

Your so right when you say he didn't deserve to die like that, he shouldn't have been on drugs, and he should have obeyed the police's orders and the whole world would be a much better place. His brother said they were a peaceful god fearing family, I wonder how peaceful that armed robbery was he committed was?

“Minnesota Department of Human Rights filed a civil rights charge against the Minneapolis Police Department in relation to the death of George Floyd. Additionally, the department will begin an investigation into Minneapolis Police”




The Minneapolis police department is not racist, in fact a couple years ago they even put Popeye chicken cups and 40 oz malt beer cans on their Christmas tree to honor black people. However I I do not have a lot of faith in them been they couldn't even keep their police department from being burnt down, but in their defence they were 4 officers missing at the time!

To the family of George Floyd you have my deepest sympathiessad2 brokenheart . I pray that true justice will be rendered and served to you:thumbsup: .

George Flyod and his family don't deserve any respect whatsoever. If people commit crimes and assault officers they run the risk of being killed. If he would have obeyed the police none of this would have happened. That means building being destroyed, stores being looted, and understand there was people in many of those stores while they were being looted. The cost of all the law enforcement and everything that goes with it, and the closure of many businesses. What gives these protesters the right to gather while there are still restrictions in place for covid19 such as no gatherings of more than 10 people. How many people know what really happened? Most all of this has been propaganda set up by the media to fuel political views.

George Floyd was a Thug, he spent time in prison for armed robbery, he resisted arrest numerous times before they took him to the ground. Did the cop over do it? Yes. Did Floyd deserve to die? No. But this was never a black and white situation for all you racists out there trying to find anything they can to make an issue out of. This is authority verses Thug situation, that cop didn't care what color Floyd was. So how do people respond to this? Well why not go out and steal from some hard working people and burn some buildings to the ground in our neighborhood all while the cops stand by and watch without doing anything. I hope all you THUG SUPPORTERS out there are proud of yourselves, well us hard working tax payers pay for all your wrong doings. So many laws have been broken by the thugs and thug supporter but very few have been arrested even though it would be like shooting fish in a barrel to do so, where is justice when it is really needed?

I believe China made the virus to eliminate their elderly population and it got away from them. They are so over-populated they dont care. I personally will fight being injected with who-knows-what. I have never gotten a flu shot. I did have to get a hepatitis shot when working for the Veterans Hospital in Lincoln. That I could understand. But a covid injection? NO
that is an incredible belief ..

Even if China had the intelligence to genetically engineer the furin cleavage site that enables efficient spread of covid In humans ... how did they target that to an elderly population .,...Covid is “indiscriminate “ and widespread . It does not just target elderly .. anyone can be infected . Depopulation versus economic collapse .., what exactly is the gain ???


researchers on Monday announced the most comprehensive estimates to date of elderly people’s elevated risk of serious illness and death from the new coronavirus: Covid-19 kills an estimated 13.4% of patients 80 and older, compared to 1.25% of those in their 50s and 0.3% of those in their 40s.


https://www.statnews.com/2020/03/30/what-explains-coronavirus-lethality-for-elderly/

How is it done? It's called genetic manipulation. Labs have been fine tuning experiments genetically since they mapped the human genome years ago. I'm really shocked someone claiming to be in the medical profession is not aware of that.

https://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=china+genome+editing&hl=en&as_sdt=0&as_vis=1&oi=scholart

Feel free to catch up on your journal reading. Since Human modification is frowned upon by the scientific community, you won't find examples of that..but if you can do it to a kiwi fruit or wheat, you can do the same thing for ANY living creature.

But wait...after an extensive google search taking 30 seconds...From 2018:

Chinese Scientist Says He's First To Create Genetically Modified Babies Using CRISPR

https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2018/11/26/670752865/chinese-scientist-says-hes-first-to-genetically-edit-babies

What is to gain? Well, the elderly don't produce. The majority are a drain on a country's resources providing little to no positive resources or input. If China were to get rid of a majority of their extensive elderly, it frees up state resources and costs the state less. We are currently experiencing this in America with most of the Baby-Boomers retiring and the remaining workforce isn't large enough to provide via Social Security. Is the purposely killing off a generation ethical? I think their response in Hong Kong issue that was going on right before Covid took over the headlines could be an example of their questionable ethics.
can you please be more specific ., about how they genetically engineered covid to target just the elderly .laugh laugh laugh .

The DNA sequence of covid has been studied scientifically around the world . The only difference that has been found between covid and previous caronaviruses is the furin cleavage site . ( I can explain that to you in simple terms but I doubt it would help ). The site is not specific to the elderly . I am sure if there was any evidence of further manipulation science would have found it . While it is true the cleavage site can be genetically engineered it can also occur naturally .






If someone has furin their cleavage they should probably trim it or wax it, not sure why that has anything to do with covid. The Dr. always says its a virus let it take its coarse, and that's what we should do. It is natures way of taking out the weak, that happens to be old and sick people. Even most of the old people dying have an underlying medical condition. We have been due to have a pandemic for awhile now, what scares me most are the look downs and social distancing going to become a regular part of life every time there is a new strain of Corona, influenza, or any other out break? It will take time for our immune systems to adjust, but eventually they will.

Corona is SARS if you remember anything about that going around, its not a new virus its just this strain is hitting hard. Influenza changes every year and 20,000 to 50,000 people in the United States die due to complications to that even with the flu shot that has been developed. I suppose its possible something from outer space is trying to mess with the world, but I don't think humans are purposely doing this. One aspect that hasn't been covered is the number of people that will die because the restrictions on hospitals and clinics making it difficult for people to get needed medical attention. Its possible more people will die as a result of not getting medical attention then will die from the Corona Virus.

And the Pilgrims purposely came over to America to get all the Indians sick and wipe them out so they could take over the land, ya right. There have been many pandemics thru time, this one really isn't even that bad compared to most. Would you rather go to Africa and get Ebola or stay here and get Corona? Why do you think they plug kids full of vaccinations? We've been past due for something like this and 10 years ago it wouldn't have hit nearly as hard if even at all here because its only recently that people have been allowed to come and go freely from China. When was the last time you heard about bird flu? Or swine flu? This will pass in time and people will once again forget about it. The majority of people that die probably wouldn't last more than a couple more years anyways, just natures way of cleaning house, if it were a conspiracy they would have done a much better job implanting it. Trumps new slogan for his 2020 campaign is Make America great again again.

Hello old kid waving thanks for the article . I am. Not surprised that in 13 years there has been little progress or improvement . Healthcare is always underfunded and rarely meets current population needs let alone pandemic demands . As usual it takes a disaster for planning to come to the fore .

The global ventilator shortfall is very concerning . It is such a specialised and very expensive piece of lifesaving equipment that has to adhere to strict manufacturing and testing protocols . In addition to standard ventilators there are also portable transport ventilators ., unsure what the cost or logistics of using those would be .. but they are scarce and most hospitals have only a small supply .

Not sure if departments are considering sharing a ventilator between more than one patient .. there are ways for this to be done but the safety And logistics of doing so has. Not been determined .

The other matter is the use and care of a ventilated patient . It is a highly skilled job that is much more than attaching someone to a breathing machine . Provision of more ventilators is only half of the deficit problem .

The timeframe needed to manufacture and test ventilators in addition to training staff (and availability) represents a colossal problem . I am sure all is being done that can realistically be done . Fingers crossed solutions are on the horizon . (I did see China are ramping up the manufacture of ventilators for the rest of the world ... I am sure their economy will benefit tenfold if they can successfully sell and export globally )




Health care under funded? You got to be kidding, has more to do with how they spend their money. I can take my pet to the vet and they can run a full blood test for about $120 and find out many different things without the pet saying a thing, go to your doctor and it cost thousands and they have to send you to see someone else for each problem they detect mostly trying to sell you drugs that you don't really need. I see plenty of new hospitals and clinics going up and the price of medical care is outrageous but because of Medicare and insurance they charge whatever they want because the customer isn't directly paying for it or they need it and have no other choice. I looked up the price of ventilators and it said from $5k to $50k. The $2.2 trillion package the government just passed is over $6000 for each person in the United States so if you figure an average ventilator at $24k they could buy one for every four people in the United States. Also consider all the people that have portable oxygen supplies. The biggest drawback is government regulation and putting money into the wrong hands, there are many people who could contribute to helping people but between the regulations and lawsuit it won't happen.

Sanders economics - free college, free health care... are workable

But not minimum wage increase to $15
This would mean inflation by 20%
Your $1 coffee would cost $1.25 minimum

In previous post I suggested SC will write history is because
it is the least developed state among those on the East Coast
based on having driven on the I-95
And likely to fall for Sanders Economics
--xx

Scenario 2:
On the other hand, Steyers, Warren or some other dark horse during debate
And Sanders comes second
--xx

In all these scenarios, Biden comes in 3rd
He has a major trust deficit -- "Impeachment",
His continuous reference to Obama period
Imagine Warren saying "You Sir, are not Obama!"

How else do you explain steep descent in his ratings?

A week to go.



we don't explain us politics. Trump was elected, which defies explanation and all polling and ratings at that time.



I was once again viewing the first Trump Hillary debate on You Tube
the way 'Secretary Clinton' was demolished right from the start
Trump listing out names of companies closed in Penn., Michigan
while Hillary was listening as if it were fresh news that CNN did not have.

Hillary was dead at start.
Media had to keep her going because Hillary's money was in Media
Trump - nothing
====

But between the Democrats - so far Media has not polarized on any one candidate.


The democrats see companies closing as a good thing, getting rid of corporate America. The Democrates lives off people who are poor, on welfare, or minorities. Its part of their power to encourage socialism. The minimum wage is pretty much $15 in most places already, your lucky if you can get a cup of coffee anywhere for $1.00 or even $1.25. Many people are already willing to pay $5 for a coffee at Starbucks. Inflation isn't always a bad thing for such things as your wages go up and your mortgage remains the same. As with all media it depends on what you listen to as to who they are talking about. Bloomberg has many commercials out and has spent a ton of money but he really hasn't gotten much of a draw so far. As far as a woman for president I don't think most people have a problem with that in this day and age, but finding the right one is the problem.

Michael Bloomberg Qualifies for Next Democratic Presidential Debate

Since the democrats are socialist bent Bloomberg seems to be their last chance to go back to how the party was before the conversion. The eleatests are the only ones in the democrat party that can even have a chance of getting the vote against trump at this point. Since the party is divided now it may slit into two separate parties. The regular democrats and the neo-socialist democrats.

The socialists own the propaganda machine so Bloomberg is at a disadvantage here. The standard screeching about money is already making the rounds. Guess only time will tell.


It becomes more clear everyday that Bloomberg is just Trump with a democrat badge, the last thing the Democrates want is another Trump. Starting to look like yet another election where most people are not happy with the candidates, maybe more people need to vote in the primaries. Many people are just smart enough to know they don't want to be the President.

Sanders has the right idea. Children do not get enough education in school to get a good job. Only a min wage one. Most kids today dont know how to read. College is and should be an extention of high school. Its everyone right to learn. Nobody should pay for education if they need it. Alot of kids dont go because of high tuition rate. Some colleges i heard are free if you live in the area and are a resident. I read somewhere in this topic thar mortgages and car should be free. Wow stupidity still rains today.


I always wondered who decided the 'cut off' for where education is not a social necessity anymore. Technology is changing. Everything else is moving forward EXCEPT we approach education. It is scary.

Most high schools offer College classes and vocational classes if the students are willing to do it. I think much of the issue is what happens at home, parents need to be part of their child's education. Some people, in fact many people aren't even able to preform minimum wage jobs much less attend college or go into an advanced field, we should be more focused on work ethics and financial management in schools. Also if we would teach them more in k-12 there wouldn't be a need for college unless you were becoming a doctor or something.

they will remain there for the simple fact they are part of your debt load.

and in determining what you can afford, they count because they offset your income the same as any other loan.





but when they check a score, it does not include what you can 'afford', it is just a number. What you can afford is determined by your current income and bills.



When I was paying child support that was considered a "judgement against me" so I ended up paying close to 2% more for my mortgage, however if I had a wife and 4 kids at home it would not of affected my credit even thou I would of had many more expenses. Never missed a payment, always paid it on time. Child support is 1/4 of your income, plus taxes, plus whatever else you spend on the kid, and that's just for 1 child, it increases for each one after that. Is it fair the way they figure things, not always, but a student loan is just that, "a loan" and should affect your credit rating as such. Intrest on student loans is less than other loans and way cheaper than a credit card, but if you did use your credit card for school or emergency use it would certainly show up on your credit. Same with medical bills, its all debt you owe and affects your ability to pay off other loans.

The United States government already gives a $2000 tax credit per child every year, if the parents were responsible they could put that money into a good savings account for their child's college and they would have about $50,000 to use toward their child's education after they graduate high school.


This credit only reduces your tax bill. Even if you owe nothing the total allowed refund for
the credit would not exceed $1400 from what I understand Over 17 years (the claimable
age) that is just $23,800 assuming you have no tax bill over the 17 year period.
Not a reliable source of savings.

If you owe nothing you get $2000 per child age 0-17 that's $34,000 and after that as long as you claim them as a dependent you get $500 a year. If you were to put that in a good account every year with compound interest it should be around $50,000, even if you didn't make any interest on it it would still be $35,000 and you can do it tax free because it for education. I know people with 3 or 4 kids that get about a $10,000 refund every year and for some reason 3 months later they can't even pay their rent, but they have a new iphone, no clue how they blow the money so fast but to them its easy come, easy go.

If you're not responsible for your own education, why would you be responsible with other people's money?


Because of their nature of being a payment for Use as it is used. Whereas loans for school are FUTURE payments for something predicted to be used, but often not useful after all.



So they shouldn't expect people in medicine going for their doctorate - be physicians?
People studying law, be attorneys? They are receiving the education for purely just having knowledge? Then they shouldn't be getting loans at all. They should be buying what they can afford with the career they chose. Or get a bank loan or line of credit to do so. Either way, it will amount to a regular loan. At least with the latter idea , you can file for bankruptcy.



They shouldn't allow history with student loan payments to be used as an accurate reflection of responsibility towards pay as you go services, like rent, utility, or car notes.




Why not - is it not important to know?


Not when considering credit, no, unless it is a complimentary listing for informative only and not counted to the rating of your credit.



If you owe money on a student loan it should be on your credit rating because you owe that money, the amount you make is reduced by the amount of your payment every month so you have less resources to pay back the debt of another loan. The people loaning you money have every right to know that you have less money available every month to pay your loan back. And just because someone has an education does not mean they make more money or that they are smart with their money, it usually means they have worked at a job less, and if they defer their student loan debt at all that should lower their credit score even more because clearly they aren't capable if paying their debts back.

Bernie Sanders’ pitch for Affordable Education makes good common sense :

Talking on developing the strongest best public school system in the world he says

Schools
Lunch for school children will be subsidized
School Teacher’s minimum salary: $60,000 / year (take care of teachers and ...)
No standardized school tests because … (reasons not so clear)

College
College Tuition: Free for all people
Student Loans: Cancelled
--xx

To achieve these goals he will remove school funding off property taxes and
raise taxes substantially on:
The Wealthy
Wall Street ‘speculation’
Reduce Military Spending

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KHvawAk59xU

--xx

On school education Bernie is 100% right, and the goals achievable

Based on similar situation in India (socialism),

State schools with state syllabus - high teacher absenteeism / student dropouts

Central government (federal) schools - higher syllabus - impersonal teaching

Private schools - less on syllabus and more on personality development

Problem is
How may Bernie achieve this when public schools are under state jurisdiction?







What makes this plan "affordable"? Or employees any kind of "common sense?
Half the students in the USA already receive free or reduced lunches and its not that big of burden to pay for them or just bring something from home.
Teachers work half as many hours as the average American and many do make $60k a year, how about we find more for them to do such as daycare for when the kids aren't in school to make up for some of the extra time?
Standardized test are ment to hold schools accountable to a certain level of teaching, what next? We drop the English requirement because soon we will all be speaking Spanish? Or everyone has a cell phone so we don't need math? The tests are used to compare what areas are doing what.
I know many people with college degrees that do nothing related to what they went to school for, college is not for everybody and giving free tuition would cause many to go even if they have no interest in it just because its "free". Just because something is "free" doesn't mean somebody isn't paying for it.
There are ways to make schools and education better, we've tried throwing money at it and that just caused even more money to be thrown at it with few results.

I almost forgot to mention the large number if cats and dogs on insulin now. It like Avacados, when something becomes popular everybody seems to get onboard. Pets use "human" insulin and more and more pets are being diagnosed with diabetes, easiest way to fix it? You got it, just give them 2 shots of insulin everyday, after all our pets are part of the family and should be treated as such.
