Lol dayo didn't defend any murder. You won't be able to defend this if asked to bring proof

They claimed I justified the murders when asked for evidence No one could present
Next is that I defended it, when asked for evidence no

Basically some people just sit down create a story and assign it to me

Afrodoc was ready for Raumdeuter regarding the black on black murder he was defending couples of days ago when the news of George Floyd came here, baba just continued with his Boathand propaganda against Airmark. That was the first time I see Raumdeuter dogde an argument. grin grin grin
Do you need to mention of involve ramdeuter in issues not concerning him for your day to be complete?
If I ask you to provide evidence of ramdeuter defending black on black murders you will probably not be able to
If afrodoc needs a response from me, he will say so. Not through you, nihilist has posted his own opinion about black on black issue and BLM so you can take it up with him
The last time I asked my stans to provide evidence of me justifying any murder, for over a week no one was able to.

Wow, I was already on nairaland tho I don’t frequent the sports section back then.

But for real I just find it disturbing that people like Aig that has always been seen as one of the brilliant minds in this country and even at one time a candidate for the CBN governor job is no different from politicians and crooked bank executives and who have used the influence of their friends to get to the pinnacle of their career.


I actually rever the man so much. He was already done with his first degree by 20, was already owing majority shares in on of the top banks in Naija less than 50years old and owns several interest in top financial market players...

Is there any successful person who didn't get some favour at some point in their life?
Being brilliant shouldn't stop you from using your influence
At a level when brilliance evens out, its the people you know who can influence things for you that will make the difference

Welp. Not with Aurier and Lloris in goal

Everytime the ball goes to Aurier I think he makes a mistake. In his box he will foul, I think he is only good close to opposition box

LMFAO..... Mourinho lost Kane, Sissoko and Son to long term Injuries that's the equivalent of klopp losing 3 important players in Salah, Mane and Van dijk. How do you think he will fare? Why not cut Mourinho the slack and look at what he had to work with.

This was January last year and he didnt go on this type of abysmal run

Harry Kane and Dele Alli are expected to be ruled out until March with ankle and hamstring injuries, respectively, while Heung-min Son is on international duty with South Korea at the Asian Cup

LMFAO.......Their is no fact from your side rather just spinning a narrative. The only fact is Mourinho lost his two best players and even their best midfielder in Sissoko That is the equivalent of Liverpool losing Salah, Henderson and Mane for a long time. Even klopp will struggle with that kind of predicament.

It is the narrative they have always given us that Mourinho can work in less than ideal situation while Pep needs perfect situations to perform

Mourinho now has that same less than ideal situation and all we hear now are excuses

LMFAO.....No body cares about last season fluck run to the champions final. The fact on ground is Mourinho was winning matches and performing well untill he lost 2 of his best attackers who have contributed to over 50% of Spurs goals this season. It's not like he has a full squad and was underperforming. Your agenda is bullshit.

Pochetinno didnt have his full squad to perform the miracles he did, Pep didnt have KdB for most of last season either

The fact on the ground is a coach who was fabled to have the ability to adapt to less than ideal situation is failing and coming up with excuses

Why would you choose a totalitarian communist country to represent socialist healthcare?

What about them? The legendary wait times in UK or what

Let's compare the US to Denmark a country with a population of Phoenix metro area?

What is the tax rate in Denmark? When is the income to enter that tax bracket, Now calculate how much of the income gets taken by govt in this Paradise Denmark

My view is that American may not become a 100% socialist country, however, there has to be a way of ensuring that child birth doesn't cost over $4000 in out of pocket costs, and a trip to the emergency room doesn't set someone back by $100,000.

It costs money, serious effort and years to get a medical education and the doctors deserve their pay

Fake news. Shaky statistics and unreliable source. The shady thinktank that conducted the study relies totally on donations. Interesting.

No source for their statistics.



Shady sources?

All told, nearly 3% of Canada's population was waiting for some kind of medical care at the end of last year.

Those delays were excruciatingly long. After receiving a referral from a general practitioner, the typical patient waited more than 21 weeks to receive treatment from a specialist. That was the longest average waiting period on record -- and more than double the median wait in 1993.

Rural patients faced even longer delays. For instance, the average Canadian in need of orthopedic surgery waited almost 24 weeks for treatment -- but the typical patient in rural Nova Scotia waited nearly 39 weeks for the same procedure.

One Ontario woman, Judy Congdon, learned that she needed a hip replacement in 2016, according to the Toronto Sun. Doctors initially scheduled the procedure for September 2017 -- almost a year later. The surgery never happened on schedule. The hospital ran over budget, forcing physicians to postpone the operation for another year.

In the United States, suffering for a year or more before receiving a joint replacement is unheard of. In Canada, it's normal.

Just look at the United Kingdom's government enterprise, the National Health Service, which turns 70 this July. Today, British hospitals are so overcrowded that doctors regularly treat patients in hallways The agency recently canceled tens of thousands of surgeries, including urgent cancer procedures, because of severe resource shortages..

That's an awesome point you brought up.

However, its fair to say that every country on the planet has a similar story.

Such isnt exclusive to the US.

Furthermore, the examples you gave are the exceptional cases of individuals that became successful from a normal background, my point refers mainly to the US political system.

Who is responsible for the policies of the US government, the general public, lobbiest or pressure groups?

As in, who does the political system in the US serve?

The American political system certainly only serves a minority of the general public with the correct intent and purpose, the rest have to put in work, maintain a high level of ambition, get financial backing, and even that doesnt guarentee the guy on the street any kind of success in US politics.

Today, in order to have any kind of success in US politics, one would have to have grdauated from a reputable college or university, have sufficient financial backing and get the aproval of certain lobbiest, pressure groups and other politically invested organisations.

Those that have relative success and all those that become seasoned politicians in the US have to consider all the above aquisitions and then some.

Tell what is wrong with picking the leaders from Only the best Universities?

Barrack Obama born to a Kenyan father who was absent for most of the time and a teenage mom, raised by his middle class grandparents in Kansas

Because of his excellence, got into Harvard and rose from the child of a poor single mother to the President of the US.

That is the spirit of America

This is socialized healthcare in Canada

TORONTO — WHEN SHARON Shamblaw was diagnosed last summer with a form of blood cancer that could only be treated with a particular stem cell transplant, the search for a donor began. A Toronto hospital, 100 miles east of her home in St. Mary's, Ontario, and one of three facilities in the province that could provide the life-saving treatment, had an eight-month waiting list for transplants.

Four months after her diagnosis, Shamblaw headed to Buffalo, New York, for treatment. But it was too late. She died at the age of 46, leaving behind a husband and three children

Ontario, the country's most populous province, provides a good example. The three hospitals that use stem-cell therapy to treat patients with blood disorders and aggressive cancers like the one that Sharon Shamblaw battled are unable to keep up with the soaring demand. So patients are sent to medical facilities in Buffalo, Cleveland, Ohio, and Detroit, Michigan, for the potentially life-saving treatment.

https://www.usnews.com/news/best-countries/articles/2016-08-03/canadians-increasingly-come-to-us-for-health-care

So this fantastic Canada healthcare cannot care for its people that it sends them Southwards to the evil US

Is this the type of healthcare that America wants?

Socialism is evil
