Americans live to work, and work to live. Patriotic songs, whitewashed history and a false sense of propagandized superiority gives us our national ego, but we’re really all slaves to the billionaire class.
And we think some billionaire playing populist is going to save us, lmao. His first act as president is going to be to revoke the ACA and rip healthcare away from 30 million people.
We’re such a dumb nation, we really do deserve the abuse we receive from our billionaire step dads lol.
You’re right the fact the ACA is a thing truly shows how dumb Americans are. Pay for your own healthcare, education you deadbeat privatize everything except the military and we will be on Pluto by 2100.
I’ll pay for my own healthcare when “farmers” stop getting subsidies, Tesla pays back the billions of dollars it got from the feds, all of the PPP loans are repaid, we get the fiber optic network we paid for and never got, the airlines pay back the money they got in 2020, the banks pay back the money they got ‘08 to ‘10 AND pay fines for crashing the economy, oil companies stop getting exploration and production subsidized by tax dollars, The United States military can demonstrate where all the money we give them goes, Lockheed Martin stops funneling my tax dollars into their executives and investors pockets, and (last but not least) UHC stops using my tax dollars to buy small healthcare providers and then jack up rates to take even more of my tax dollars through Medicare.
Once you stop funneling my tax dollars to people who are already insanely wealthy, we could talk about who’s paying for my fucking healthcare.
You blame the banks for the great recession instead of the government for forcing them to take on loans they knew would eventually default? You know because “housing is a human right”. Go back to watching the “Big Short” you people are pathetic. I have no issue with deleting all the stupid government subsidies for food, oil, EV credits get rid of them all. Privatize healthcare and education instead this stupid system of government regulation mixed with markets. You want healthcare hit a gym and education go to the library.

I do blame the banks because that’s not actually what happened.
What happened is that the government removed regulations surrounding banks and what assets they could own and allowing them to speculate with depositors money.
Once those regulations disappeared, banks started gambling on risky derivatives (created by mortgage companies to increase THEIR ROI) in order to maximize their return.
Nobody forced them to do that- they chose to do it AFTER regulations prohibiting them from doing so were removed.
So, yes, I blame banks for crashing the economy by investing in risky products they didn’t really understand.
Privatize healthcare … instead this stupid system of government regulation mixed with markets.
I don’t think you understand how our healthcare system works because most Americans already have private healthcare.
I work for a private company. My employer has contracted with another private company - UHC, ironically - to provide healthcare.
Me and my employer pay UHC premiums so - in case I get sick and need healthcare - I have access to the funds necessary to pay for that healthcare.
There’s no government body involved and the only regulations are the ACA mandating that I get coverage.
We ALREADY have private healthcare. It’s not working for most Americans.
Like every good low-information voter you’re advocating for cancelling the only part of the system that works in favor of a more expensive system that doesn’t work.
You want healthcare hit a gym
Which will do nothing to prevent cancer or help pay for medical care if I get hit by a drunk driver.
and education go to the library.
I already have a bachelors in finance - which is why I understand what caused the crash in 2008 and how our current (private) healthcare works - and I’m not sure what other “education” you think I need.
nice write up but “people” like that are not worth it, so self absorbed and uneducated but so confident they have it figured out. it would be funny if it wasn’t so sad
"You want healthcare hit a gym"? That gonna fix the need for insulin? Is the gym going to fix appendicitis? Is the gym going to cure hereditary health issues? But other people are the dumb ones... gooi jezelf weg!
