Why do you assume that I am claiming that the outcome will be the same?

It’s a fact that 2 of the last 3 Presidents took office after losing the popular vote...
Yes the system would change and yes more people would then vote, why is that a bad thing again?
The system we have has failed miserably twice with the last 3 Presidents. And you’re afraid fixing it might not be foolproof?
Why would a president who won the popular vote be unable to act as a check on the legislative branch?
What’s the penalty for not following the compact though? The first time a State doesn’t agree with the winner of the popular vote they are free to back out and switch back to their own legislature’s rules for allocating EC votes with no penalty. In a 2016 situation neither candidate will concede to the other putting…
We don’t have the EC in federal elections, though. It’s only in one election,
A friendly reminder that the State and Federal Governments are not the same. Neither is the President of the USA the same as a Governor.
300 Million >>> you anecdotal evidence.

Yes I am insulting your intelligence, mainly because you’re wasting my life with your banal attempt to argue.
Whataboutism (also known as whataboutery) is a variant of the tu quoque logical fallacy that attempts to discredit an opponent’s position by charging them with hypocrisy without directly refuting or disproving their argument, which in the United States is particularly associated with Soviet and Russian propaganda.
Again an emotional appeal. That’s very weak, without support, and basically meaningless.
No. if a person is in need of health care a provider cannot turn them away. It’s against the law in the USA.
Also no one in the US is being denied access to health care. What the issue at hand is the cost of that health care and who pays for it.
That’s not a factual statement. That’s an opinion.
You’re gonna need to try harder - you’ve fallen into emotion appeals without any clear support. I did a 10k brewery run this morning and am about 6 beers in ATM so what’s your excuse?
Citation needed for “improper access to health care.” Start with a definition of what that actually means.
And nothing you’ve posted actually demonstrates it does not. A voluntary system where there is 85% uptake where employers provide benefits for 50%+ of citizens and a social safety net that covers all children, disabled, and elderly (assuming they worked 40 quarters in their adult life or was married to someone who…
