Why can't Israel fight its own wars??

[Cellblock2429]

huh? There is no wall. And, Mexico didn’t pay for it.
You know, a big beautiful wall.

/----/Now I know you're just posting lies.

The U.S.-Mexico southern border wall is a multi-layered security system spanning 1,954 miles, combining physical barriers, waterborne defenses, patrol roads, and advanced detection technology.​

Overview and Purpose​

The southern border wall is designed to reduce illegal immigration, human trafficking, and drug smuggling along the U.S.-Mexico border. It is not a continuous wall but a combination of primary and secondary steel bollard walls, waterborne barriers, patrol roads, and integrated technology such as cameras, sensors, and lighting to enhance surveillance and enforcement capabilities U.S. Customs and Border Protection+1. The wall is part of the broader Smart Wall system, which aims to provide operational control over high-risk border sectors U.S. Customs and Border Protection+1.

/-----/ You can't prove how Trump meant Mexico would pay for the wall. What were you expecting other than a check?

I showed how Mexico is losing money with a closed border. Your best response was "Babble and blather." Poor soul. How pathetic. Either you can back up your claims or you can't.

That’s funny. You claim you showed Mexico is losing money and that’s your claim they paid for a wall that was never built. Your lies are staggering. Move on to showing me why the debt under Trump alone has risen more than all the Dem presidents combined since Reagan. Is that because of your logic ?,

I don’t see a tag, “ paid for by Mexico “. Looks like the same wall that Israel used unsuccessfully to keep HAMAS out

I knew Trump was always lying. You’re the buffoon, not me. He never built the wall, Mexico hasn’t paid for it. You are the one reduced to defending a fraud.

Clearly you are not on Medicare nor have studied it very well.
Medicare A is rather minimumal and major medical care, partially paid for.

There's a reason for Medicare B, C, & D. (Which is separate insurance coverage and requires the individual to chose and pay for plans.)

How about you display your great wisdom and knowledge on that for the readers here.
............................
As occurs all too often in these discussions, the term "healthcare" is abused and mis-used.

Health Care = 'Care of one's Health', The individual person's actions that affect their health; Such as proper and nutritious diet, not over-eating(gaining weight), regular exercise (aerobic & strength), plenty of rest/sleep, avoid harmful substances and abuse ~ alcohol and drugs, avoid risky behavior such as extreme sports/activities, etc.

Medical Care = What one uses/needs to help prevent disease/illnesses or treat such, as well as treat for injuries, and other conditions that impair one's health. Provided by medical practitioners and institutions, etc.

Medical Insurance = Payment$ into a pool of fund$ with other persons, administered by a business entity (usually an insurance company) in expectation to provide payments for medical care, usually beyond basic exams, treatments, tests, etc. Usually a major portion of such beyond what a patient pays~can afford.

So I guess your style is to just ignore what anyone says that contradicts the echo chamber you find yourself in.

So now you act like an anti-intellectual and redefine words based on your feelings, not on data or evidence. You know who else does that? MAGA and Pro-Palestinians. Palestinians redefine words like "genocide", "starvation", "famine", and they do that based on feelings, not data or evidence.

Then you try to posture about health care, but you don't understand how Medicare works and how it's different from the NHS, which despite low public polling still has better outcomes than we do. I also find it weird that you would glom onto a single poll that shows low dissatisfaction with the NHS, but completely ignore annual polling by Kaiser Family Foundation that routinely shows high patient satisfaction for the VA, Medicare, and Medicaid upwards of ~90%.

I don't know what it is about you people, but you really have a hard time not being the smartest person in the room. You don't want to learn anything, you just want to dominate the conversation. When you can't, that's usually when the trolling starts.

Medicare Part C is Medicare Advantage, and Medicare Advantage covers Medicare Parts A & B, and every Medicare Advantage plan must cover everything Medicare A & B does. That's the law.

Medicare Advantage plans replace Medicare A & B, and must have as good or better benefits. Depending on your income, you may have $0 premiums but you'll never see astronomical Medicare Advantage premiums because, again, Medicare Advantage (Medicare Part C) has to cover everything A & B does.

For those with Medicare Advantage premiums, they are deducted from their SS check. But again, Medicare Advantage plans generally don't have premiums, and that covers HMO's, PPO's, HMO-POS, and Giveback plans.

A lot of mirror gazing and projection there Komrade.
Your post is more self reflection than a realistic and objective view of me and my posts.

BTW, I've been on Medicare for a decade+ now, think I know it better than your ignorance displays.

 

[AnOrangeCat]

No. I don't think that's it. I do know what I'm talking about because I do the work.

Ignoring polling -annual polling- that always shows satisfaction with government-run plans ahead of private insurance is a pretty big indicator that Medicare expansion would benefit everyone on private plans or those with no coverage at all.

Medicare is not the NHS.

Your post is more self reflection than a realistic and objective view of me and my posts.

Come on dude. Be real. I've built a very strong case for Medicare expansion. I know the difference between Medicare A & B and Medicare Part C. Every indicator is there. Expanding Medicare to everyone would save us trillions. Literally, it would save $1T over ten years. $1T that doesn't go into the pockets of insurance companies. Cutting insurance companies out and nationalizing drug manufacturing would bring down costs because obviously.

BTW, I've been on Medicare for a decade+ now, think I know it better than your ignorance displays.

I don't think you understand Medicare, what it is, what it does, and why it does what it does.

Medicare is mandatory to all USA citizens at and over 65 years of age.
Try getting a grip on the real world reality.

Did the USA ever fight 3 countries at the same time? nope

2 in WWII and we DID have help.....

Oh, now it’s, how they would pay ? I guess you could now claim we’ve made them pay by selling firearms to the drug dealers in all of Central America

Wrong again bubba…you’re in dream land. Medicare is socialism. You “saying” it’s mandatory makes it socialism…in reality, you can refuse coverage. Hypocrite. Social security is SOCIALISM too, as is Medicaid and many other public services paid for with taxes.

2000 miles of border, 700 miles of border barriers. Doesn’t sound like a wall..,hilarious. No bubba, Mexico hasn’t paid for it. How could they ? The border wal that Trump claimed to build, hasn’t even been built. The majority of wall/ fencing ws to replace barriers all ready in place. He’s a ,liar. .

/----/ I trust Copilot more than your dumb biased opinion. And I already posted how much the sealed border is costing Mexico. You're just too stubborn to admit it.


Current Status of the Southern Border Wall Construction
As of the latest U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) data, about 644 miles of primary wall and 75 miles of secondary wall were already in place along the U.S.–Mexico border before January 20, 2025, meeting Border Patrol operational requirements theworlddata.com.

Under the “Smart Wall” program, which combines steel bollard barriers, waterborne barriers, patrol roads, and detection technology, CBP has since awarded contracts and begun construction. As of June 2026, the program’s status is as follows U.S. Customs and Border Protection:

• Primary Smart Wall (New): 38.7 miles completed since Jan 20, 2025, with 247.8 miles under construction and 342.8 miles planned (not yet awarded).
• Primary Smart Wall (Replacement): 16.1 miles completed, with 43.1 miles under construction.
• Waterborne Barrier System: 14.9 miles completed, with 112.5 miles under construction and 408.2 miles planned.
• Secondary Border Wall: 22 miles completed, with 183 miles under construction and 302 miles planned.
• Vehicle Barrier: 174 miles planned, with 0 completed so far.

Total miles of primary and secondary walls completed since Jan 20, 2025: about 38.7 + 16.1 + 22 = 76.8 miles of physical barriers, plus 14.9 miles of waterborne barriers.

If you include all completed barrier types, the total physical barrier miles built since the start of the new construction phase is roughly 91 miles.

Important context:

• About 535 miles of the border remain unfenced due to terrain, but are covered by detection technology U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
• The goal is to complete the full “Smart Wall” system, including all planned barrier types, by 2029 theworlddata.com.

In short, nearly 100 miles of new or replacement border barriers have been built since January 2025, but the total physical wall length is still far from the 1,419 miles of primary wall planned for the new Smart Wall system U.S. Customs and Border Protection.

Btw, he’s promised an end to the blockade 39 times…still waiting. Is Mexico paying for that too ?
