To be clear, I don’t care about this thread. I didn’t even read it. You might be absolutely correct.
I am commenting on the general idea that people seem to particularly call out SFP.

Is your argument the more you talk about someone the more correct they are?
The more you talk about someone the more you seem infatuated you are with them.
And as a corollary, people not to argue with those they can easily dismiss. It's not worth the effort.
So you (and lots of those on this board) spend time and energy on him because he irks you. But part of that is that you cannot easily dismiss him.
Why? Is your argument that he gets called out on the PT (by name in the titles no less) because he is so wrong? There are a lot more people with a lot dumber arguments in this board.
So no, I don't know if he is correct or not. I do tend to find him at least thoughtful. I just know a large number of people spend time calling out a specific poster. To me, that's a not just notable, that's actually amusing.
However, there is an alternative theory, at least for a subsection of posters. It might be that people enjoy the clash of ideas. This very much might be your motivation. And he clearly does as well.
And honestly, the PT could use more of that.

How did "markets generally allocate resources better than governments" become "virtually any government involvement in a market is inherently communist"? When did skepticism about government's ability to solve a problem become skepticism that we have any collective responsibility to address the problem at all?
Who thinks this? Certainly not politicians. They may say something like this, but look at the federal government and the actions BOTH parties have taken.
It's hardly run by anarcho-capitalists.

Hmm… why not let Americans legally study and practice?
Do you really think Americans are somehow prevented from becoming doctors?
Or, more likely, becoming a doctor requires a lot of rigorous training and then being a doctor is a lot of work. Add on that a lot of "medical" work is paperwork and it becomes less glamourous.

You really believe its some appointed judge's place to decide what media pundits are allowed in the White House press room ?
Yes, deciding legal issues is literally their job.

Weird.
My best guess: Dems torpedo it now, without actually voting against it. Then if the D's take the House and/or Senate the bill comes back under their banner so they can take at least partial credit.

To be fair, that is at least partially by design. It's the insurer of last resort. If you can get another insurer, you should.
Did Landry strike a deal, or did he claim credit for something Temple did?
It's not clear from the story either way.

Yes, let's reduce funding for roads and bridges for short-term political gain.
