How come wad manager is such a high risk? I read about bricks allot from people downloading bad wads! What should I look for when downloading wads, what to stay away from? Is this even really a good idea to do, I'm pretty new to all of this, I have a basic Idea! Thanks
The "bad wads" mentioned are usually wads with custom-made banner graphics; if the banner has any formatting problems or has too large of a filesize, it will cause a "banner brick" - the Wii will show a black screen instead the System Menu after the health warning screen. Banner bricks are easily fixed if you have Priiloader or BootMii boot2, since all you need to do to fix them is remove the offending wad.
Usually if someone has provided a wad to download (whether it is Wiiware, a custom channel, or a forwarder) it is implied that they have tested this wad and it won't cause any issues. Still, it is advisable to only download wads from sites you trust. By doing so you are very unlikely to encounter a bad wad at all.

We all should have free health, dental, vision care, and make the college kids pay for the schooling, f that college forgiveness plan our govt doing now, its really not fair for all others in the past that had to pay for they're schooling anyways (like me, with 2 kids I paid to send to college in the past) -

I think we should outlaw healthcare entirely because the fact that people can get healthcare today is unfair to those in the past that couldn't+2 -

@Sicklyboy - the comparison would be forgiving all medical debt, not making healthcare illegal! -

Although I still don't agree, medical debt is rarely a choice, whereas enrolling in university is certainly a choice

College costs, college loans, book prices, the entire thing is predatory, oft touted as essential to a successful life for my generation and the ones since, and completely unaffordable without putting you through an insane financial hardship for literal decades in many situations.

Many of the same issues can be seen for the insanely predatory healthcare and health insurance system in the US

It's important for society to be healthy and educated. If those things can't happen because all of the institutions that prop up those industries make it unattainable for all but a small portion of society, then your society is largely going to be disease ridden, dying, and uneducated in very short order.

I agree it's not easy for the average American, let alone the ones below that average. Free / cheaper healthcare is much more important I think than free university education.+1
Of course like @mthrnite said, why not both. But I doubt both will get solved at once, and surely healthcare is top priority. -

If it's needed to keep you healthy it shouldn't cost you $90k. The fact that it does is an enormous problem
