Well I'm in agreement with you from a moral point of view, but you just have to ask yourself what is the breaking point for the average person?

 

How much abuse will people tolerate?

 

Will there be blowback from extreme corporate greed and generational gouging, that we saw during covid. 

 

 I think there will be, and I think the sympathy is going to be minimal. 

 

I don't believe in sympathy at all. Just polite indifference.

My mates Mum, 80s, waited 3 months for gallbladder surgery. I dont see many Brits singing the praises of the NHS, and the dental work isnt an advertisement.

 

That's because it's been underfunded for over a decade, not because there's anything wrong with the principle of universal health care in which all chip in. Socialism indeed. Twaddle!

 

Where I live its universal and working even if it's under strain. I am getting. excellent service, and pay a monthly subscription dependent on my income. 

 

Anyway, any 'socialism' is better than letting young women bleed to death in the car parks of world class hospitals like they do in the 'land of the free and home of the brave'.

 

Such a shame you all shame such a great anthem with your selfishness and hatred.

 

Speaking of which I see your pressy in waiting has announced his intention of destroying the only functioning bit there is in the US.

Unlike the UK socialist health care system where recipients must wait over a year for primary care and end up dying of their illness.

Its better than a pay or die system
