   The problem with spelling “lose” as “loose” (aside the fact that it is plain wrong and can cause confusion) is that it is a common mistake. Normally I ignore typos – make them too often myself, for a start – but this loose/lose thing is one of those trigger thingies. So on this one I am with some dude from FL.

   In this case, it’s snsurone76, it seems (although I cannot fathom, why ATMs should be banned in Iran).

   Well, fortunately for you (probably) and me (certainly), I am neither a US citizen nor resident; I am a member of a socialist party; I believe in equal protections for all under the law and, more than anything, the need for a fair and democratic political system in which policy discussions are based on facts. and in which opposing parties can respect each other, discuss their differences respectfully, and then, whatever laws are decided, respect those as well. I happen to live in a majority right-wing country, I don’t agree with many decisions but I am certainly not going to use weapons (which I don’t have) do defend “my” rights in the face of the democratic majority. I also hate giving lessons and here I go… haha. Respectfully yours,

   “New Mexico had the highest violent crime rate of any state at 780.5 incidences per 100,000 residents, followed by Alaska (758.9), Arkansas (645.3), Louisiana (628.6), and Tennessee (621.6).” (which-states-have-the-least-and-most-crime)As for health care, we need a system that responds to the needs of common people, not of the the wealthiest; a system that ensures health for all because it is a human right, not a luxury.

   In a country with one of the highest incarceration rates in the world, closing prisons strikes me as a positive, and health care is always a positive, not only for its direct beneficiaries, but for the economy and the general population. Of course, if you think people should be in poor shape and not have access to care, you might not see things in that light.
