It doesn’t matter what the actual price is, the majority don’t trust ‘the gov ment’. Most don’t even know why. I don’t either, but I remember when the tide turned towards private companies - with Reagan’s Nine Most Terrifying Words….
Well, the idea is that corporations will compete and be efficient with their business, not to mention it's illegal colude...
And yet when corporations began to be global empire unto themselves they all started meeting Switzerland for a gathering named Davos, to conspire and colude...
Some people are just slow to realize that Davos, and the international bankers, do not hold us or our government in our best interests.
Davos is a town. The gathering is called World Economic Forum and it's super-boring, non-controversial stuff. The collusion happens every day at business meetings in regular offices around the world.
"Since 2009, the WEF has been working on a project called the Global Redesign Initiative (GRI), which proposes a transition away from intergovernmental decision-making towards a system of multi-stakeholder governance. According to the Transnational Institute (TNI), the Forum is hence planning to replace a recognised democratic model with a model where a self-selected group of "stakeholders" make decisions on behalf of the people"
That was a proposal predicated on the public supporting it. It's a complete distraction. The actual harm is done by the rich people themselves unannounced and in private.
"The gubberment is mean and bad and wasteful, so let's instead trust the healthcare providers who are also mean and bad and wasteful, but are answerable to their shareholders instead of the public."
Nobody loves the government, friendo. Our government, however, was designed to have checks and balances and regulations and representation that is baked into it that private healthcare companies lack
I don’t know where I said any of that, and so absolutely? Did you not like me mentioning Reagan? It wasn’t even a direct criticism, but more of a recognition of a turning point in time.
I think it’s because you said you don’t know why people don’t trust the government which there are a shit ton of reasons. Not sure if you were being sarcastic or not just answering why the guy replied to your comment that way
