Pat Riot Posted July 22 Share Posted July 22 Perhaps I am not fully awake yet, but this article is one of the stupidest I have seen this year. First paragraph of the article: A new study found more than 1 million U.S. deaths a year—including those in young people and working-age adults—would have been averted if the United States had mortality rates similar to other wealthy nations.

Alpo Posted July 22 Share Posted July 22 I guess I would like to read that article. But not bad enough to sign in. I really hate those sites, like the Wall Street journal, but you have to be a member to read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texas Joker Posted July 22 Share Posted July 22 HMMM.... You know they're right. If less people died in the US there would be fewer dead people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole story can be wrapped up in that paragraph I posted. “More deaths are leading to a higher mortality rate!” Well no $*** Dick Tracy!

Rip Snorter Posted July 22 Share Posted July 22 The Epoch Times is more truthful than most of the media, but you must remember that "the Epoch Times and theepochtimes.com were founded in 2000 by John Tang and other Chinese Americans affiliated with the Falun Gong new religious movement “in response to communist repression and censorship in China.” Some cultural differences.

Rip Snorter Posted July 22 Share Posted July 22 And she has an editor or editorial board. I have subscribed to The Epoch Times for a few years because I like to have a newspaper. What was particularly interesting in respect to context was attending a Shen Yun Performance. Some interesting, if very unusual perspectives.

Some interesting, if very unusual perspectives. I used to get their paper but I would only read a little of it so I went electronic. I think the reason you all couldn’t read the article I posted is because I downgraded my subscription so I can’t share articles properly. For $44 a year it’s not a bad news source. Better than most.

Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 I was reading some of the reasons the Times dropped some of their columns. They just cannot find an editor who knows everything. Perhaps they should interview folks in the Saloon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
