What's the first thing a high-ranking CCP does? Buys property in a Western country and sends his family to live there and set things up for him to jump ship.

Members of the CCP should be banned from doing so.

Never mind that, members of the CCP should be barred from entering our countries. I believe a law was passed, last year in the US, putting a travel ban on any CCP members. Problem is, CCP members simply lie on immigration/Visa forms and it's oftentimes very difficult to prove any connection to the CCP.

Rich people from around the world fly to the United States to be treated there. Why? Best medical technology / best hospitals / best doctors / best treatment money can buy. That’s what the US has that other countries don’t.

Actually, I think Finland is ranked #1 for medical technology. At least it was a year or 2 ago.
After my classes I can hunt down my source.

Actually, I agree here. They are insidious, like vermin.  I think what we
need here is for them to wear patches sewn onto the outside of their
clothing.  Even better would be a tattoo that can be easily seen and
would facilitate a final solution to this problem.

And then take them on for a camping trip in the wonderful, unspoiled American Rockies!

But seriously, comparing the CCP to an ethnic minority is a pretty fail analogy.  :rolleyes:

*sigh*

Dullardry.

American health technology is fine but when you're discussing average life expectancy of 79 vs 81 you're not speaking of big differences.

LI, old buddy old pal, I've lived in the US and health care there is as good as anywhere on Earth but it can be ridiculously expensive. That aspect needs to be reformed. Admitting this is not to detract from what makes the USA a fantastic country to live in. You also don't need to bore us with "the American made vaccine is superior" stuff too. We already like America, your "things Americans say" reddit nonesense is why people don't like your country.   Give it a rest.

Others: stfu with the CCP rubbish. It's the Communist Party of China, CPC. Everybody knows what it is. We don't need boring TEFL mediocrities telling us that authoritarian governments are oppressive. We know. It's an unfashionable opinion but the CPC has done fairly well in the past 40 years, even if we wouldn't choose that government for ourselves (except for 3rd World countries like South Africa, maybe.)

Okay, you have a point. If I was perhaps an Ethiopian living in absolute
poverty and being hunted down by ISIS or Al-Shabaab, I might begrudgingly
accept refuge in a place like the US.

But it would be way down on my list for sanctuaries.  Why would I choose a
country with no universal healthcare? A country awash in guns with the highest
incarceration rate in the world? A country that hunts down and exterminates
Asians. A country with more hate groups and psychotic militias than most
people nowadays can count? A country where the police drive armored
vehicles and kill innocent civilians with impunity?

I would choose just about any European country before I ever make the
mistake of coming to the good old USA.
Dude, lay off the media fear porn. Are you really that easily manipulated and frightened?

Second, we really don't need lectures from the likes of you on progressive thinking and intellectual matters. Not exactly the most enlightened yourself there.

If ol'DeMart can do handle it, you can too. Heck, old grannies from Cambodia and Lebanon and wherever can handle it without running away terrified and hiding under the sheets.

But hey, if you're really that easily scared, go to Europe then. America would be fine without you.

Yeah Roman Senate, if this Martino character can handle sub-standard American public schools and still be a TEFL teacher, you betta watch your mouth. Wealthy European countries only have better food, better schools, better healthcare, well, just better generally. You get the picture though. America is better off without you. Grrrr.

I’m a dual US-UK citizen (to play that card) and I know both systems, seemingly unlike most of the tiresome boneheads on here. The NHS is generally fine if sometimes slow, the US is also fine

Yep, if you think putting people in concentration camps, live organ harvesting, oppressing people, letting a virus loose on the world, claiming the whole of the South China Sea, murdering their own citizens, sending tanks to ride over protesting students, torturing people because they don't agree with you, is good, then they have done 'fairly well' over the last 40 years.

Oh and let's not forget the 40 million plus that died from starvation under dear old Chairman Mao, yep, they have definitely done fairly well.
