Paying for healthcare is already bizarre as is. I still do not comprehend how Americans do not immediately revolt over this. Why exactly are you paying taxes for? If everything is privatized and costly… what’s the explanation given for your taxes? I’m not being ironic, I truly do not understand.
Because us Americans have been taught that this is how it is. And unfortunately only one side wants to change this.
Never fun thing when I have to leave a job and I lose my health insurance for the reason I’ve just losing a job. Or I can pay full amount for the insurance after I leave like $800 a month for one person.
One side is… more friendly to the idea of public services. I know what you’re saying, but while the liberals and the fascists might be buddies, only one wants people to directly die.
There are people who are convinced that the reason our healthcare is so expensive is because we “subsidize healthcare for the rest of the world.” They live in this version of reality where exorbitant salaries of CEOs and dividends in the healthcare and drug industries are somehow not the cause of insulin creeping past $100/vial
The real answer is that Americans conservatives genuinely hate the poor, and will happily double their own healthcare costs if it means denying poor people access to care. They will fight tooth and nail to preserve the system that rich white Americans can afford, but poor black people can’t.
Turns out humans are kind of awful. If you under-educate them enough and then feed them propaganda they’ll believe almost anything. Also they’re really resistant to change. Not a great combination of factors. You might have noticed their adverse effect on the climate lately…
For our taxes we get war in nine countries at the same time.
And not only that, our government has managed to spend more than 100 billion on another country’s war too.
98% of the voting public in America thinks you’re not entitled to anything you can’t put cash down for. It’s insane, but that’s how we vote every two years.

Correction: One side SAYS they’re more friendly to the idea of public servies.
Those words are worthless because they don’t do anything meaningful with their power to make said services a reality.

It is important to view American politics through a prism of cruelty.
98% of our people are love the status quo as long as it punishes the right people.
Sad thing is so do most democrats/liberals
The pentagon, mostly.
