The Great Depression No One Talks About

I see a lot of false conservative tropes. For example, Medicare isn't free, the VA has good healthcare (my dad speaks highly of it), you can still have a successful career and accomplishment alongside socialism, megacorporations get direct subsidies from the government yet they are never criticized (see Exon), and paying for university is no longer possible for many so people are often stuck in an economic class without a viable way to get out.The best way to give regular citizens a shot in life is socialism. It allows regular people to not go bankrupt when they get sick. It offers a safety net that allows them to find new work instead of being homeless. It can offer affordable education so that people can advance in society. What do we see from conservatives? More tax cuts from the rich and attacks on the very programs that can improve the lives of regular citizens.Edited by Taq, : No reason given.

It seems that you fear democracy because democracy puts trust in humanity.If you buy private health insurance, are you putting your trust in humanity? Does God run Blue Shield and Blue Cross?

So it's about the money?In case you were wondering, First World economies with socialized medicine pay half of what the US does on medical care. HALF!!!Or better yet, just ask a group of retirees (pensioners for you Brits) if they want Medicare to go away and have to pay for private insurance for all of their health care. See how that goes. By the way, Medicare is socialized health care.Edited by Taq, : No reason given.

Mark 10:21
And Jesus, looking at him, loved him, and said to him, You lack one thing: go, sell all that you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me.
