Higher rates of asthma and other respiratory illnesses are "fine"? You might have a chronic health problem, but you didn't die, so it's fine?

Well it's reasonable those with the affliction do what they need to do about it.
The rest without such issues can live on as they always have.
So yea. I'm fine with it.

Just wow. "I don't have a chronic health issue so I don't care if others do."
Someone give this man the Humanitarian of the Year award.

The world dosent bend to others whims just because there are conditions out there.
Talk about entitlement mentality. Wow!

Not as bizarre as is is with people who expects and demands that everyone around them needs to bend over backwards just because they have a health condition.

Well, what did your post have to do with the OP? Do you have a source for the idea that people with health problems behave as you describe? (Even though that has nothing to do with the OP?)

Nothing to do with the op? Don't be daft.
Tha nutcases banning gas furnaces among other appliances and utilities are the source, and I'm not going into a circular argument over and over just because you hit an impasse for a rebuttal.

So you've got nothing. Check.

Obviously, since you stopped providing proper rebuttals to the argument on the matter and I agree. There is nothing more to continue with since you made it abundantly clear you have no more counterpoints left.

We fight for affordable healthcare and you're sitting here supporting corporate price gouging.
The Republican position will always be "the price of the drug is too cheap.....that nurse's hourly wage is too high!"

Democrats haven't done a very good job at 'affordable' either, hence they introduced the wonderful brave world of $5, 000 to $10, 000 dollar deductibles before they even remotely think of coverage for people.
Nurses are paid fine. Their main problem is they are overworked and understaffed.
I see nothing in the executive order about "wartime powers" etc. It seems that the "hate Biden" continent is busy getting the fear, panic and rage on the right into high gear so they'll see more ads.
...therefore, the policy of my Administration to listen to the science; to improve public health and protect our environment; to ensure access to clean air and water; to limit exposure to dangerous chemicals and pesticides; to hold polluters accountable, including those who disproportionately harm communities of color and low-income communities; to reduce greenhouse gas emissions; to bolster resilience to the impacts of climate change; to restore and expand our national treasures and monuments; and to prioritize both environmental justice and the creation of the well-paying union jobs necessary to deliver on these goals.

Democrats don't dictate corporate deductibles for insurance. Republicans support the higher deductible anyways. Your point?
Nurses are paid as low a wage as possible. This helps with corporate profits.
Nurses are overworked because they're underpaid.
Lower salaries don't entice people to sign up.

Democrats do nothing about anything aside from saying they are doing it.
Nothing will ever become of it either because Democrats like their equals the Republicans are simply not that serious about making any changes for the better.
It will always be promises, followed up by throwing their hands up once people vote them in , and saying, " oh well we tried" and then repeated again every single election cycle ad nauseam as long as the two party duopoly exists.

Ok, you replace your fossile fuel cars and appliances with electrical ones.
You do realize that: below from: U.S. Renewable Energy Factsheet.
About 79% of the nation's energy comes from fossil fuels, 8.0% from nuclear, and 13.1% from renewable sources. In 2019, renewables surpassed coal in the amount of energy provided to the U.S. and this trend has continued through 2022.
Therefore more electric damand means more fossile fuel to provide the electric power. That is until an reliable green energy source can brought on-line.

It's all an imperfect work in process.
