instruction:
In this task, you are given a public comment from online platforms. You are expected to classify the comment into two classes: disagree or agree. Classify the comment as disagree if it is likely to raise a certain level of public disagreement, whether healthy or unhealthy. The disagreement can be due to toxic content (for example, disrespect, identity attack, insult, and threat), controversial content, misunderstandings, or conflicting opinions. Classify the comment as agree otherwise.
question:
Comment: So let me get this straight. Unlike Government workers these specialist MD's  have no pension, no dental, no VIP benefits, no catastrophic life insurance,  no physio, no overtime, no triple time on stat holidays, have to work holidays, work weekends, don't see their families and children for dinner, take call for their colleagues overnight once a week, may not have disability and don't have paid vacations. So if these MD's work longer hours and harder and then have to pay more taxes on the additional work.....they just won't work extra. They must feel screwed, let the politicians find some one else to do it. Results in longer wait times in the imploding disasterous Canadian health care system.
answer:
Disagree


question:
Comment: Do you realize that, regardless of your point of view, Gov. Walker actually DID something?  The Legislature has only itself to blame ... and I choose to blame it, and not the governor, whose hand was forced by legislators who could have / should have produced "something" in this session and the first "overtime."  

Furthermore, he did something that was not politically self-serving.  He may incur the wrath of voters for this and either be recalled (silly) or not re-elected.  He knows that, and is willing to stand up for what he believes is a solution (or a step in that direction).  How many of our legislators are willing to put principle over re-election?

I don't have to like the governor's solution to admire him for not doing what is politically expedient, but, rather, to put his reputation on the line for something he believes in.
answer:
Agree


question:
Comment: There seems a bit of a rush by media and their sycophants in the activist community to be apologists for this chap. A little too much enthusiasm for the heart wrenching drama but little objective examination of the story. It's borderline galling that their release was doubtless enabled by US interests yet he harbours  vitriol for America. 

Perhaps he has something to hide?
answer:

Agree
