Miner49, you left off the part of the sentence that said, “for illegal aliens.”
The rest of your rant addresses issues not included in the comment by .40 cal Booger. 
Nice try!!]]></description>

Dude yeah figured as much I just noticed a slowdown in the frequency and more layoffs of the worst offender. It will continue as long as Obama&#039;s 2013 defense authorization act is in effect officially and to the fullest extent unofficially in perpetuity with or without the PATRIOT act. I just keep it simple for the normies that have trouble keeping up with you, 40, and strych9]]></description>

“Nope, I ain’t got no propaganda masters.”

You continue to lie Miner49. You very devoutly and religiously spread everything your left wing cult masters say. Not one or two things here and there, but in just about every post you make.

And Its kinda odd too that you want death of Christians and jews and rail against christian religion, while at the same time supporting the perverted mantra of Islam of Iran to enact slaughter of the Christians and jews and then claim you hate religion while practicing the religion of the perverted version of Islam by Iran in wanting to slaughter Christians and jews. You can&#039;t even be honest with yourself.

Yeah, you do have propaganda masters and you are very happy to serve that perverted cult religion they and you practice.]]></description>

@Void They&#039;re still backed by them. It doesn&#039;t stop when they don&#039;t control the White House. The deep state still selectively leaks stories that push left-wing narratives.

&lt;i&gt;&quot;Nope, I ain’t got no propaganda masters.&quot;&lt;/i&gt;

I&#039;ve witnessed you parrot EVERY SINGLE MSM narrative and lie for the past seven years! You know that because I&#039;ve called you out on it. You&#039;ve been wrong every time. When they say &quot;jump,&quot; you ask, &quot;How high?&quot; You&#039;re a drone programmed to support the latest thing.

If we stop funding Israel and Ukraine, what will China do? Will they begin funding them? No, China is smarter than that. We&#039;re the only country in the world that throws money away like that on foreign countries. If we stop funding dr_a_g* queen story hour in South Sudan and kweer* Sesame Street in Turkmenistan, then explain how China will take over the world.

We&#039;ve been using foreign aid to fund global conflict, topple governments, meddle in elections, create the appearance of worldwide left-wing support, and make a few very select people extremely wealthy. Will China begin doing that if we stop? The answer is no.

&quot;It’s much more important that we preserve those funds so we can continue to give Israel $4 billion per year.

It’s very generous of American taxpayers to continue to fund Israel’s free university education for every citizen, and you should be really proud of paying $11 million per day to fund their socialized medicine program that provides free on demand abortions to everyone.&quot;

we actually don&#039;t. You really need to learn what context means Miner49er.

Any funds Israel receives from the U.S. is for the same thing we supply other countries, foreign aid or for military purposes. Sometimes there may be a US/Isreal joint special interest purpose the U.S. might fund - but we do that for other countries too.

Israel’s healthcare system operates under the framework of the National Health Insurance Law (NHIL) enacted in 1995. This legislation mandates &#039;universal health insurance&#039; (not &#039;universal health care&#039;) for all citizens and permanent residents. The system is funded through progressive taxation and employer contributions funneled through the National Insurance Institute (Bituah Leumi), and by out of pocket expenses (i.e. co-pays), and other insurance involvement.

While the NHIL provides broad coverage, it is not entirely ‘free.’ Several out-of-pocket expenses exist:

Copays: Small copays are charged for certain services, such as prescription medications and specialist visits. These are capped annually to protect vulnerable populations.

Supplementary Insurance (Shabam): Most Israelis (over 80%) purchase supplementary insurance plans (Shabam) offered by the HMOs or private insurance companies. These plans provide access to a wider range of services, shorter waiting times, and higher-quality facilities. Shabam policies are often priced based on actuarial risk models, similar to any other insurance product.

Private Healthcare: A smaller segment of the population opts for private healthcare services, which offer faster access and a wider selection of providers but come at a significantly higher cost. 

All together, this is encompasses the Israel medical care system - and its not paid for by the U.S. nor is it &#039;socialized medicine&#039;. Its a participant private and tax funded insurance system - a socialized medicine system is tax funded.

higher education in Israel is not free, although it is heavily subsidized by the government. Israeli universities and colleges charge tuition fees, which are significantly lower than those in many Western countries.

Structure and Funding:

The Israeli higher education system comprises:

Universities: Nine research universities, including the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Tel Aviv University, the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology, and Ben-Gurion University of the Negev. These universities offer a wide range of undergraduate and graduate programs.

Colleges: Numerous academic colleges and teacher training institutions that focus primarily on undergraduate education and vocational training.

Open University: A distance learning institution that provides accessible higher education to students who may not meet the traditional admission requirements or prefer to study at their own pace.

The Council for Higher Education (CHE) is the governing body responsible for accrediting institutions and overseeing the quality of higher education in Israel. Funding for universities and colleges comes from a combination of government subsidies, tuition fees, research grants, and private donations. The Isreal government subsidy component represents a significant portion of the total budget for most institutions, making higher education relatively affordable, and is funded by taxes and private companies. Its not funded by the U.S.

There was a time when the Isreal health insurance system was under water. The U.S. loaned them money to keep it aflot until they could fix it and they did fix it and pay the U.S. back.

Isreal does have free abortions under its medical system. These are only for gestational age limit up to 24 weeks and if threat to the mother&#039;s life, physical or mental health, fetal abnormalities, rape, incest. This is vastly different from what liberals want in the U.S. - they want the ability to have free tax payer funded abortions for any reason they choose at any time they choose (like, &quot;ya know, I changed my mind so go ahead and kill the life growing inside me...I have a date with another cute guy tonight&quot;) and birth control purposes and up to moment of birth (which is legally and morally murder).]]></description>

<p>All together, this is encompasses the Israel medical care system &#8211; and its not paid for by the U.S. nor is it &#8216;socialized medicine&#8217;. Its a participant private and tax funded insurance system &#8211; a socialized medicine system is tax funded.</p>
<p>higher education in Israel is not free, although it is heavily subsidized by the government. Israeli universities and colleges charge tuition fees, which are significantly lower than those in many Western countries.</p>
<p>Structure and Funding:</p>
<p>The Israeli higher education system comprises:</p>
<p>Universities: Nine research universities, including the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Tel Aviv University, the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology, and Ben-Gurion University of the Negev. These universities offer a wide range of undergraduate and graduate programs.</p>
<p>Colleges: Numerous academic colleges and teacher training institutions that focus primarily on undergraduate education and vocational training.</p>
<p>Open University: A distance learning institution that provides accessible higher education to students who may not meet the traditional admission requirements or prefer to study at their own pace.</p>
<p>The Council for Higher Education (CHE) is the governing body responsible for accrediting institutions and overseeing the quality of higher education in Israel. Funding for universities and colleges comes from a combination of government subsidies, tuition fees, research grants, and private donations. The Isreal government subsidy component represents a significant portion of the total budget for most institutions, making higher education relatively affordable, and is funded by taxes and private companies. Its not funded by the U.S.</p>
<p>There was a time when the Isreal health insurance system was under water. The U.S. loaned them money to keep it aflot until they could fix it and they did fix it and pay the U.S. back.</p>
<p>Isreal does have free abortions under its medical system. These are only for gestational age limit up to 24 weeks and if threat to the mother&#8217;s life, physical or mental health, fetal abnormalities, rape, incest. This is vastly different from what liberals want in the U.S. &#8211; they want the ability to have free tax payer funded abortions for any reason they choose at any time they choose (like, &#8220;ya know, I changed my mind so go ahead and kill the life growing inside me&#8230;I have a date with another cute guy tonight&#8221;) and birth control purposes and up to moment of birth (which is legally and morally murder).</p>
