Literally the most fucking stupid thing on the internet

Why lower the requirements? The requirements should be going up not down

>>52564172
>that pictures
Sounds like complete bullshit desu. Do you know how much we spend on military? It's ridiculous.

Right now I'm on 10 mbps, does that mean I'm not on broadband by fcc standards? I find that ridiculous.

Palmer Luckey will make anime real

>Netflix, for example, recommends a download speed of 5Mbps to receive high-definition streaming video
That's 1/5th of a 25Mps connection for netflix alone, assuming you're only running one device.

If you have multiple devices and each is doing something like one running netflix, one playing video games, one downloading stuff(like games on steam), and one watching videos on youtube then 25Mbps could be cutting it close.

>>52565453
It means the standards should go up according with available technology

ISP wants to keep it lower so they can brag about how more e people have broadband when really isps are fucking crony and refuse to give people better speeds. Comcast is the worst offender of this claiming their customers don't want higher speeds

>>52563236
Just clickbait.

What they are saying actually isnt that bad. The only stupid statement out of the entire thing was
>"In addition, according to the FCC's own data, the majority of Americans who can purchase 25Mbps service choose not to."

which is obviously stricly price related and due to the monopolies ISPs have in this country.

>>52565453
I just looked it up and in 2015 the FCC bumped broadband minimum from 4/1Mbps down/up to 25/3Mbps. Explains why my 15/1Mbps connection randomly bumped up a few months ago, my new speed matches the new broadband minimum

>>52565545
Why isn't the internet treated like a utility yet? I don't wanna keep getting jewed by twc, their service keeps dropping in and out and the service is completely unusable between 5 and 8pm

Free college for everyone alone would be about 750 billion per year.

Avg 22 mil enrolled in college * 36k average semester tution = 750 bil total. Divide that by approx 180 mil taxpayers and you get around 4200 dollars per taxpayer per year. People who only make 20k per year (people who can't afford college anyway) wouldn't be able to afford that on top of all his other tax proposals. People would begin to die. Not to mention a college degree would become as worthless as a high school diploma even if you COULD pay for it (which you can't, it's too fucking expensive to be sustained for any long period of time) since anyone could get one, thus defeating the purpose.

Anyone who played attention in economics knows that these things can't thrive in the public sector when you have a population as large as the US.

>inb4 citing socialist Nordic/Euro countries

These are capable of doing this because of their small population, thus making it much more inexpensive to fund their education, but statistics show that even these countries' economies are beggining to fail, and they are dying due to low birthrate.

Simply observe facts, cold, hard facts and you will realize nothing this mong proposes is fiscally possible.

No you just took the average tuition and multiplied it. That says nothing about the actual cost. Keep in mind that tuition costs have been dramatically inflating for years.

>>52566471
I have a better solution.

Let school debt be discharged in bankruptcy and then let the free market take over from there.

>>52566471
>but statistics show that even these countries' economies are beggining to fail
Aside from the slump in Norway due to the laughably low cost of oil, citation needed. Even if we look EXCLUSIVELY at Norway, those socialist buggers have enough money stashed away to last until the end of the world.

>>52566591
Not everyone needs expensive medical care at the same time? You understand that it wouldn't be like allocating $2k to everyone, but rather a communal pool of money right? As long as the total withdrawals are lower than the supply of money, it should be fine. The US already wastes more money that countries with universal healthcare anyway.

>>52566674
>http://www.nationaldebtclocks.org/debtclock/norway

kill yourself berncuck

>>52566636

Yes, I did multiply it. By the number of people that would need said tuition. Thus giving you the TOTAL AMOUNT OF MONEY NEEDED. How hard is that?

>>52566674
Because they were smart with their oil money thats why.


With oil prices so low, now would be a good time to tie the gas tax to inflation and fix the US's crumbling infrastructure.

Instead what happens, SUV/Truck sales boom ..yeah like this shit never goes in cycles.. eventually they will tank and GM/Chrysler will be crying for money because their cash cow large vehicles aren't selling anymore.

>>52566705
But anon, if your math shows bernie is wrong then it must be false.

>>52566705
You're still missing the point. Do you really believe that college tuition is not artificially inflated in any way?

>>52566471

A larger population also means a larger tax base, so I'm not sure what this statement is supposed to prove.

because oil's doing great right now right?

>>52566747
Not him, and not arguing whether or not it is or isnt. But just out of curiosity, how would making it to where everyone had "free" college change the fact that the prices are artificially inflated or not?

>>52566471
>Not to mention a college degree would become as worthless as a high school diploma

Do you even know what a college degree is for?
If you think it's just for getting a job/cash, you don't belong in college. What a waste of brain.

>>52566769

Because berncucks don't know how markets work, so they think that Santa Claus can make the prices magically go down

>>52566759

The numbers are not false. However I'm not going to spoonfeed you.

>>52566769
Is that not obvious? If the government took complete control over universities, then there would be no need to charge absurd amounts of money for education.

>>52566787
You're delusional if you believe current tuition prices truly represent the actual costs of education. It's no secret that it is dramatically more expensive now than it was a mere 10 years ago.

>>52566762
Wow, you're well and truly clueless, aren't you?
Oil was the source of the money, yes. The money was then invested into other assets. Those assets are not oil.

Also, throwing all this aside, the important figure is debt as a percentage of GDP. I challenge you to find a single country with a lower figure than Norway.

>>52566471
>People who only make 20k per year (people who can't afford college anyway) wouldn't be able to afford that on top of all his other tax proposals.
You retarded? He wouldn't take that from people making $20k a year.

>Not to mention a college degree would become as worthless as a high school diploma even if you COULD pay for it (which you can't, it's too fucking expensive to be sustained for any long period of time) since anyone could get one, thus defeating the purpose.
You retarded? Not everyone can pass college. A great many people would still fail to get in. And the good universities would become even MORE exclusive. If everyone can afford to go to college, the good schools can afford to be MORE selective since they would have more qualified applicants.
No one is suggesting everyone should go to college. Many people would still fail to get in. Getting into a good school would still be an achievement. But no one would be denied for their financial situation.

>thus making it much more inexpensive to fund their education
It costs exactly the same per capita.

>>52566700
No, we get better healthcare than them. Everything from cancer to simple eye surgeries have higher survival and less complication rates.

And that's despite the fact the average american has a far unhealthier lifestyle than any other country which is use as an example.

>Is that not obvious? If the government took complete control over universities, then there would be no need to charge absurd amounts of money for education.

Provided they get treated. Treatment rates are far lower than any other civilised country on the planet.

It's a bit like those studies showing there are low rates of type 1 diabetes in African nations. Funny that, you'd almost thing the diabetics were dying of something before they were ever diagnosed.

>>52565291
Libs want the USA to be a shit hole not GOP. Are you retarded?

>>52566824
Sure it's better quality healthcare if you can afford it. But it's still fucked that we spend more money per capita on it, and it's not even universal. And that your fiances will be ruined if you get cancer. I don't know if universal healthcare is the ideal solution, but something should be done. I'd even try full on free market healthcare too.

Why? You pay for better service and you don't end up with patients drinking water from pots because the NHS can afford any more glasses. Or to use Panama, my country, as an example you don't get thousands of people poisoned with cooling fluid and then have nothing but a "we are sorry" as a result.

Idiots who think Universal healthcare is some sort of panacea when they haven't actually had to live with it in both mundane and emergency annoy me to no end.

>>52566591
The NHS gets by with £116.4 billion a year to provide a similar standard of care to what most Americans get.
http://www.nhs.uk/NHSEngland/thenhs/about/Pages/overview.aspx
That works out to about $2,613 per person.

So yes, $2,000 a year IS enough to pay for healthcare with a socialized system.

Even leaving aside ethics, the US system is just plain bad. It's shockingly inefficient. Replacing it with a socialized system like there is in other countries would decrease costs and improve outcomes. The fact that socialized medicine helps poor people is just the icing on the cake.

>>52566914

I'm pretty sure most of the problems with your healthcare system are due to other factors (not enough doctors, government corruption, etc.).

The problem with the US system is that it is disgustingly inefficient and outrageously expensive. A well-done socialized system would actual decrease costs. Of course, the catch is that you would actually need legislation that is well written and not full of dumb bullshit, but in theory it could work.

>>52567033

If I charge admission, it's no harder. Taxes are proportional to population. Expenses for free college are proportional to population. A big country should have no more difficulty than a small one.

Then say that. You were talking about the cost on an ABSOLUTE scale, which is stupid. Say that it costs more per capita because of increased overhead, not that it's absolutely more expensive.

>>52567301
Let me use a line from your party:
It's not my duty to educate you.

But I will anyway:
http://www.nhs.uk/news/2013/09September/Pages/death-risk-much-higher-in-English-than-US-hospitals.aspx

And yes, the absolute cost is different because the cost per capita increases with the number of people you get involved. No matter how you dice it, working with 100 people will be more expensive than working for 10 people unless you start scamping with the 100 people simply because it becomes more difficult to use the same resources you could with 10 people. That's basic business manage and resource allocation, mate.

>>52567226

>they survival is roughly half
That is not what the thing you linked to actually says. Here is the text:
>NHS patients are 45% MORE LIKELY TO DIE than patients in the US
1. Survival rate != death rate. Doubling the death rate is not the same as halving survival rate. Let's say people in American hospitals have a 95% chance of surviving. According to your misunderstanding, that means people in UK hospitals have a 47.5% chance of surviving. But the article actually talks about the DEATH RATE. That means you should double 5%, not half 95%. That gives a much more reasonable 90% figure.
2. That is not a factor of two. That is a factor of 1.5. The chance of death in the US is roughly 2/3 what it is in the UK, not roughly 1/2.

So, according to your logic, a 95% survival rate in the US corresponds to a 47.5% survival rate in the UK. Based on the REAL figures, a 95% survival rate in the US corresponds to a 92.5% survival rate in the UK.

You fucking retard. Please go repeat the fourth grade. How do you not understand how percentages work?

Type one is genetic. There is more to the picture than just genetics, there are suspected triggers but it is still genetic.

>and NHS

so I didn't read context and just jumped in off of the first page, so apologies for that, but are you tards seriously going to argue that the average level of healthcare in the US is going to be better than the NHS?

the US may have world class doctors in their specific field, but as does any first world country, however the NHS is one of the most cost effective healthcare providers *in the world*, all the while capable of providing a decent level of care on a countrywide scale free to anyone at point of service, and if public health services are too pleb tier for you yanks then you also have access to private health care in the UK which is on par with any private healthcare service in the first world

>>52567622
Show me where it says the survival rate is half. I'll wait.

You're being so retarded right now that I almost suspect a false flag. You should have learned percentages in the third grade. Are you TRYING to be stupid?

>>52567686
The level of care in the US CAN be higher than the NHS provides. If you have the money, you can get far better care with no waiting lists.

But the NHS provides a good standard of care at an amazingly low price.

I thought I was on /pol/ for a second

Oh, anon, you begin claiming that somehow Blacks not having it isn't cause by outside agents but simply because death rates, and now that you are faced with the fact Type 1 is mostly the result of outside agents which dictate it's appearance.

Type 2, on the other hand, is the one that's mostly hereditary and will likely occur even in healthy individuals. You made a mistake and didn't bother to learn about what disease you were talking about. Left on it's own, type 1 is unlikely to develop.

Frame it as you wish, mate. Attempt to misuse terminology as you must. The fact is there is better care in the USA and no amount of NHS glorification will fix that.

/pol/ is probably at work, if the post rates are anything to go by.

>Looking at the market for broadband applications, we are aware of few applications that require download speeds of 25Mbps
LITERALLY EVERYTHING can use higher speeds. Literally every site will load faster. Literally every file will download faster. Netflix and Youtube (neither of which is known for its video quality) require 25 Mbps for some videos.

Are these politicians just pretending to be retarded because of bribery, or are they really that clueless?

>Blacks not having it
Actually, didn't mention anything about blacks, the comment was about the lacking healthcare in African countries. Trying to set up a strawman isn't helping you.
>Type 1 is mostly the result of outside agents which dictate it's appearance
Type one is triggered by environmental factors, it isn't caused by them. Jesus fuck, read what you've linked. I have, and certainly more than once. I know most of these articles off by heart already.
>Type 2, on the other hand, is the one that's mostly hereditary and will likely occur even in healthy individuals
This goes against every scrap of evidence on the planet, do you have even a single documented case of type two occurring in a healthy adult?

>Attempt to misuse terminology as you must.
I'M the one misusing terminology when you act like a 45% increase in death rate is the same as a 50% reduction in survival rate?

Let's say Disease A has a 5% chance of killing you in a US hospital. This means you have a 95% chance of surviving.
According to the article you linked, the chance of dying in the UK would be about 45% higher. Let's round that to 50%. That means you have a 5% * 150% = 7.5% chance of dying, which means you have a 92.5% of surviving.
According to you, the chance of SURVIVAL is cut in half instead. This means you have a 95% * 50% = 47.5% chance of surviving in the UK and a 52.5% of dying.
The actual figure is 7.5% and your misunderstanding gives a figure of 52.5%. You are off by (52.5% / 7.5%) = 700%! That is a lot of error! And your error could be even bigger in some cases.

I suggest you watch these videos. They should clear things up.

>36k per semester tuition
You fucking joking? My tuition is ~9k per year.

>>52568091
I think he might be counting room and board. Those are necessary.

As far as I can tell, Sanders' plan would not provide free room and board to all students, just to those who need it. Tuition would be covered for everyone.

>>52568131
Even if you add food & rent for a year I'm up to ~18k which is a hell of a lot less than 36k per semester.

>>52568187
Same here man. I live at home and have a few scholarships to cover most of it.

Not him and not defending the 36k per semester number but I suppose you could get up to that figure if you were studying in a place with absurdly high rent with a ridiculous tuition fee. That's a pretty narrow definition though.

Do you not understand ratios anon?
smaller amount of people to send to uni = smaller population to tax

>>52568351
This has got to be bait. Increasing death rate by ~50% is NOT the same as cutting survival rate in half. How can you people use a computer if you don't understand third-grade math?

>>52568503
>Do you not understand ratios anon?
You may just be using that as an insult, but he LITERALLY doesn't understand ratios. Just look at the other bullshit he's writing.
