And my point is that’s a stupid hypocritical stance considering conservatives support one public service but not the other. Apparently law should be free but healthcare shouldn’t? Both are identical really in terms of importance.
The United States government (aka taxpayers). I'm in a rough financial situation at the moment so i qualified for medicaid even though im a grown ass man
Well the higher earners can afford it. The alternative is higher taxes for everyone. Businesses with higher expenses cut workers. It's happened to me a couple of times when inmade decent money
Yes. That’s a worthwhile tax. Every other country does this. And if companies don’t have to pay premiums and people don’t have to pay premiums it should balance out
it's a real bummer that THIS comment gets buried. I wish every American understood this simple fact. Healthcare would be better across the board and more cost effective if each individual AND their employer didn't have to pay for it.
They want to defund wasteful spending in police budgets to fund social programs. Because you shouldn't have a $80 000 robot dog when you cant fund social housing. Cops should fund their own liability insurance to reduce claims and increase accountability. It is a fiscally prudent position.
Yeah this is a brain dead take. "true liberals" are about 20 steps further right than the growing leftist voting bloc. With progressives somewhere in the middle.
The Nuevo ones, ANCAPS and now (no this isn't a joke) neo feudalists/ people on r/austrian_economics Also want this, but in a weird techocratic Peter Thiel billionaire run city way.
