Love the naivite of this post in multiple ways - that everyone else is or aspires to be a wagecuck, or that you don't pay for your healthcare if it's hidden from your paycheck.
To the extent that it's mocking the aggressively bitter and irresponsible red hatters, I love it, too. Just a different kind of love, I guess.

Oh, and when one of side of an "argument" can't manage to make it over the low, low bar of, "Trump bad," does anyone think that you're going to have a nuanced discussion about health care costs?
No.
And I have little doubt that there is PLENTY of sympathy from the (radical leftist groomer) non-Trumpers on here for folks struggling with health care costs. And most any other expense. But will that sympathy be extended to obnoxious Trumpers? Of course not, and for very good reason.

Crime was the lowest in the late 2000s / early 2010s when we didn't have insane Soros DAs who stopped prosecuting crime.
Wrong. There tons of people stealing top secret classified documents and storing them in bathrooms during the 2000s / early 2010s. DAs didn't start cracking down on that sh!t until 2023.

murder is down 28% in NYC since the year 2010.
But thanks for playing. I know your feelings matter a lot to you so please continue to be led around by them. Your feelings are as important as the most crying lefty undergraduate! They are! I mean that!

Nope. The rates kept dropping right through 2019, per the Disaster Center chart linked above. Rates definitely did go up, starting in 2020, but were on the way down again in 2022, per the stats summarized by the NYT article.
Baltimore had 196 homicides in 2011 and 348 in 2019. Chicago had 431 in 2011 and 800 in 2021.
Anecdotally, many people I know (including myself) refuse to go to my home city's downtown because it's overrun by homeless and there are frequent lootings (smash and grab) by 'urban youth'.

well sure you can cherry pick a place where crime is up. Because your feelings are, as I said, important.
It may bum you out, but murders in Chicago are down 39% over the last 3 years. Sorry...maybe you will need a drink after reading that. Hope you are not triggered.
After you sober up, how about finding some broad crime stats and not chicago or baltimore? Fair?
Exactly. That's why I provided national statistics, so we wouldn't get sidetracked by personal experiences or the situations in cherry-picked cities (e.g. "NYC is much safer than it was!" "Baltimore is much worse!"), and instead could get an idea of what's happening in the country as a whole.
And what's happening in the country as a whole is that crime, after a notable spike in 2020-2021, is dropping. As it was doing pretty steadily from ~1990 to 2019.
In 2018, one of the last reliable years, Baltimore was #2 in the nation for homiccides despite being the #30 largest city. It had more than NYC despite being far smaller.
These insurrectionists attacked the White House. Give them solitary. Treat them exactly like the J6 prisoners.
Really? Were most/many/any of the J6ers in solitary? I'd guess at least a few must have been, right?
In any case: To the extent these protesters broke the law, they should receive the punishments that the law prescribes. Period.
People are being silenced and locked up for protesting under Garland's Justice Dept. Parents and Roman Catholics are called domestic terrorists. Those opposing funding the slaughter of Ukrainians are called Putin puppets. Those who oppose funding the genocide of the Gazans are called Hamas sympathizers.

Okay, so nothing about the J6ers' being in solitary.
And please provide a link for people's being locked up simply for protesting (but not actually breaking the law). If people are being locked up solely for protesting, but aren't violating any laws, then that's a huge injustice and every American should be against it.

Okay, and in the same year the homicide rate for the state of Florida (Republican governors since 1999, and significantly lower percentages of black and brown people in the population than NYC) was 5.2/100,000, while NYC's was 3.5/100,000.
See how it's important, when someone talks about national trends, that we come up with national statistics?
