Response: ‘My dear friend. With all affection and respect, you are seeing what you see because of the perceptive dyslexia you've developed as a consequence of falling for the misinformation/disinformation you've been spoon fed during your education and by the standard media.
1) Let's start with health care. What about Obamacare makes healthcare affordable? Tell me what skewed or outright manufactured data you can come up with that shows people are paying less for health care. The fact is that inexperienced, unqualified, university-bred eggheads with little to no background in health care, came up with a bureaucracy-based system that is collapsing under its own weight. The incoming administration will demonstrate to you how to make healthcare affordable, while at the same time reestablishing freedoms within the system.
2) Russia. Where to start? It was your candidate, Hillary, who came up with the cute little ‘push the reset button’ soundbite regarding our relations with Russia, but her foreign policy expertise appeared to be just as superficial. Under the current administration we lost the Middle East, and let Russia end-run us in Syria. While we are getting the short end of the stick with China, from an economic perspective, Russia is forging diplomatic ties with them. People like Putin understand power and weakness. That's how they view the world. In that context, the last 8 years have played into Russian hands.
3) Our Allies. Who do you define as our allies? Israel is an ally, but under the outgoing administration we treated them poorly, and tried to influence their elections. We treated their leaders with disrespect, and we sided with their enemies - preferentially. So, let me ask you about Crimea? We, as a nation, pledged our protection to the Ukraine, but other than some bold rhetoric condemning Russia's invasion of the Crimea, we didn't do much. How does this square with your comments about Russia, and about our allies? There are many more examples to go along with those.
4) Cutting taxes - and thus incentivizing people and corporations to invest and take risks is good. Having a strong military is a deterrent to war, and a very strong tool for effective and peaceful diplomacy. Speak softly and carry a big stick is relevant.
5) The incoming administration supports Civil Rights, as does the vast majority of the American populace. Some of the exceptions to this are those like the Democrat Symone Sanders, who stated that ‘We don't need white people leading the Democratic party’.
6) Reducing the population by 10%? Where did you get that one? Margaret Sanger was an advocate of abortion based population management, in a racist context. It is the Republicans who have wanted to stop infanticide.
7) Regarding trade wars with countries that lend us money, and the issue of telling private companies how to run their businesses, there are many things to say. First, why does the US have to ‘borrow’ money? Why are we a debtor nation? Partially, because we have an unsustainably large government that irresponsibly put into place unsustainable social programs that actually hurt people in the long run, and put our nations children and future generations into debt. Second, why shouldn't we protect ourselves and the interests of our citizens when determining trade policy and trade agreements? We've been getting the short end of the stick, and anyone who claims to be a champion of American workers should be in favor of negotiating fair trade agreements. With regards telling private companies what to do, it has been the Democrats who have pushed policies that tell private companies that they have to bake cakes for occasions that are inconsistent with their personal religious beliefs, and that want to force private Catholic hospitals to provide abortions, etc. The whole concept of a private company was questioned with the comment “You didn't build that”.
Those are just a start. I'm sure that with a little thought you can do better.
Wow .... awesome thoughts .... thank you :)
