So you need to know who started the fire before you fund the fire department?

I had gastric bypass, I can confidently say I preferred all of that and the surgery risks and the recovery period to the weight. A lot of people do.

Hint: weight loss is incredibly hard to borderline impossible and many people are ready to do things that might kill or cripple them just to stop people from making fun of them, and none of this is an "easy way" anymore than any other treatment.

>No one has a right to another person's labor

On the contrary, everyone has a right to purchase at prevailing market rates - that's what a market is. It's also what the government will pay (MRP) for care, but it's apparently not enough.

This sounds so much like "competition working as expected to prevent rent extraction" that it's morbidly abusing to see protest over it, as if large profits are some kind of God-given right.

News to me.

Still do the hundred nug challenge?

Are you accusing Banksy of paying to put migrants on shoddy boats just to rescue them later? I'm going to need a WHOLE lot of proof to believe that bullshit.

I disagree with them.

That's the thing, Italy recently passed legislation (decreto ONG) that makes it illegal for rescue ships to take in people from more than one boat, and the rescue ships need to make a beeline for the nearest port, unless allowed on case-by-case basis.

I think the question of, who is putting these children in the sea to drown, should be answered before spending money on a company.

Why on earth did you think that?

Yes, I can read the links I post.

They seem to be onboard, but it should be noted that their parliament needs to approve the bill before they're officially over the line, which is still a few weeks away most likely.

No one has a right to another person's labor. If you think everyone should have access to emergency care, fine, put together a public health option via government run facilities, ala NHS, or through government insurance, ala Canada.

You don't just declare that people have right to demand care from private citizens and that you'll figure out a way to pay for it, maybe, someday.

It’s not for free, the government is refunding them.
