Falkland Islanders to hold referendum over sovereignty

[Ben Kenobi]

So you are saying that of the tens of millions of uninsured people in the US, all of them have access to better healthcare?

Yes, I can confirm this as someone who is uninsured.

[Ben Kenobi]

Bull****. Despite what liberals proclaim our healthcare is in fact excellent, as evidenced by the fact that more people survive diseases such as cancer here than anywhere else, and far and away more people come here for medical treatment than any other country. You don't see Saudi princes traveling to Argentina for brain surgery.

It's taken as a matter of faith that no matter how ****ty things are in Argentina that at least American health care sucks worse.

The didn't land on the moon guy?

No, that's Bootsy Collins.

Personally I'm touched because the fate of saudi royalty always nests close to my heart

Erm, 'gave it back' is rather rose tinted. Ever heard of Michael Collins ?

And... what, you've heard of Michael Collins since ?

You know we gave Ireland back nearly a hundred years ago, right?

I'm not homophobic! Butt, go ahead and have your way.

What bugs me is this group has a tougher time taking a joke than most. Really I'm getting the Brits and their one sided anti brown South Americanism. You look real good at Ireland. The Brits don't even like the Irish controlling Ireland, imagine if the Argentinians controlled it?

The British used to have very good relations with South America- they invested and contributed quite a lot to Argentina itself. The current state of affairs will pass as all such things do...

Jesus Christ what ****ing thread did i do that in?

[Sava]

Sorry I called you an idiot reg

[Lorizael]

...fact that more people survive diseases such as cancer here than anywhere else...

You've touted this "fact" on multiple occasions here on Poly, and on each occasion it's been pointed out to you that this fact only appears in flawed statistical analyses of cancer survival and that the non-flawed analyses paint a significantly more ambiguous picture. You've yet to change your stance, though, so my pointing this out probably won't do much good.

[Sava]

You say that like America is a monolithic entity where everyone has equal service.

You're also factually wrong on cancer survival. I remember that narrative quite well.

The only possible thing you could be referring to is a single 2008 study that compared the 5 year survival rate with Europe's. So yeah, for one specific statistic, the US is number one.

Right wing editorials around the time were spouting the same bull****.

You are bad at this.
