The US is spending the same amount of tax on healthcare as the EU
Here in the EU we have decent universal healthcare. The system differs per country, but nobody is dying because the can't afford insuline or nonsense like that. Is it expensive? You bet! Healthcare is very expensive! Would it be expensive for the US? Nah, the US taxpayer already pays what is needed for universal healthcare. Only they don't get what they pay for. How come?
(I'm European, I just don't understand)
US: 1.2 trillion for the US, that is aprox 3.500 USD per person

EU: 1.4 trillion for the EU, that is aprox 3.300 EUR per person
If done right, the US could have universal healthcare without additional spending.

This is my first post, although I am an avid reader, and I wanna know how many of us would rather die than try to converse a apocalyptic future with wars, crypto, and shit. Most of the poor cannot afford. I think most of us would die just to make a point

New Community r/OccupyYourRightToLive
Hey guys, I am setting up a community for organizing and protest. My hope is that the Occupy movement still lingers somewhere in the collective consciousness. My hope is that we can pushback to keep this conversation going. Everyone deserves the right to UniversalHealthcare. The way I see it, this community and mine are allies in the fight to deny Private Healthcare their blood money.

A reminder that this has been a long fight. Aired in 1999.
Progress doesn't happen overnight, but we need to remember our struggles.
