As someone who lives in the UK free healthcare is entirely possible. The reason you probably don't think so is probably down to the fact the U.S is so dominated by conservatives, who for some reason think giving the public services that should be free for free is a terrible idea.


On the subject of Trump, now this may be my socialism showing but, I personally feel sick about the idea a businessman would be able to run a country.


That and he's an idiot. You'd think the U.S would learn to stop electing morons after doing it TWICE with good ol' Dubya Bush Junior but eh.


Those aren't unpopular opinions but maybe they are to someone somewhere.


Here in Denmark, we have free healthcare, free education, free elderly care (I think), and basically every social service here is free.
We have a tax on about 35% though, if I remember correctly, but we're doing fine. Oh, and also, we get paid for going to college. And no, you don't have to pay it back.




Should someone make a politics thread? 'Cause this is getting kinda out of paw.


Unpopular opinion: I prefer Pepsi over Coke. Big time.
Truly unpopular opinion: I think they're equal. *waits for the rocks to start coming from all sides*

I agree, I don't think there's any more room for debate.


If you can't behave yourself here, I suggest you turn around and stop posting BS. That goes for everyone, regardless of what side you're on.

Silaluk is too brutal for 90% of this forum.


Actually, make that something like 96%.

I've gotta be honest, I really don't like "mobile" gaming. On cell-phones.

I've tried tons of times to pick up a game and play it on my phone, but I can't. I just can't. None of them really appeal to me, the quality is, well, cell-phone quality. The top games are typically pay-to-play. Sure you can emulate or pick up ported titles like Knights of the Old Republic, but I'm just gonna end up playing those on my PC or the original consoles.

I'd much rather have to carry around a 3DS and a Phone, than just my phone, if it means having to play.

I completely agree with you, Nrein. I really don't like cell-phone games, and I prefer hand held console far more. Plus, I feel like cell-phone games are kinda overrated, I guess. I mean, I see them in Youtube adds all the time.


Unpopular opinion (well at least around where I live): I don't like the hip music nowadays. I really don't like a lot of the songs the music artists make, and my classmates listen to it all the time. It's only very few songs that I kinda like, but that's it.

To go off of that, I don't enjoy 90% of the female singers we get today, mainly the ones that get all the attention.

They all sound the same. I remember when female singers used to have their own distinct voices, but nowadays it's like they all need to sound like Adele.

It literally sounds like they're out of breath half the time. That's why I much prefer the local singer/songwriter crowd when it comes to females, as opposed to the big names.

Just re-enforcing the rules is all. And please leave me, the creator of the thread, to decide what can be considered unnecessary. Let's not discuss it further.

Let's just forget about that, and move on


Unpopular opinion: I like Samsung much more than I like Apple. Apple is WAY overprised on things that are not even near worth the money, they sell it for. Plus, when it comes to phones, I feel like Samsung is more innovative, and functional. I like how they have an instant "back" and "settings" button at all times, at the bottom of the phone. Plus, they make more innovative designs. Sure, the Samsung Galaxy S6 looks exactly like the iPhone 6, but don't forget about the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge. And the Galaxy S7 Edge, for crying out loud.

People I know worship the Metal Gear Solid franchise, but honestly I can't stand the games. I've always hated the slow, gun-based gameplay, the characters, the monochromatic graphics, and a lot of other things. Every time I say why I dislike the games, it's legions of fans telling me "You haven't played the games" or getting down my throat about how I'm wrong for not liking the franchise.

I think let's play/gaming Youtube channels are garbage. I'll say I'm guilty of watching them, but I've realized how lame they are.

Depends entirely on the Youtube channel. Pewdiepie sure, but others can be a lot more thoughtful and decent (totalbiscuit springs to mind, though he very rarely does full playthroughs of anything.)

Also ultimately, if you still go back to watch them, is it really garbage? :P

I've seen a few, but most of them consist of the player screaming at the top of their lungs for most of the video.

1, feminism is a joke now.

2. You are weak for needing to be in a relationship 24/7 as in jumping from one romantic partner to the next.

3. Marriage is a joke.

Garbage is kind of a strong word, I'll say that, and I'm entertained by some of them.

That's the one's I'm mostly referring to. Those get annoying.

(Late response. Sorry bout that.)

1. Problem is, one of our middle brackets would be 50% under his tax plan :/
2. Paid for colledge? Are you also paid for homework? (Think I heard that somewhere)
3. Politics thread? Gr8 plan m8.
4. Oh yes, Pepsi for the win
