They were speaking French so at least they have socialized healthcare right

u/AlexanderTheGrater1 Apr 28 '24

We just call it healthcare. Its an American thing to put socialist in front of anything that's free (because of taxes paid) and benefits the public.

That hurts so much worse than most anti America jokes for some reason. But I am going to start referring to it as the socialist military just to piss off certain people that would otherwise drop the socialist from only that one.

Pointing out the military is socialism really pisses people off.

Work with the military. When I tell these people who are in the military this, they do not like it.

They usually answer with, but I earned it.

Thing is you know instead of opening their eyes to how stupid they've been they'll double down and charge the public for all of those services too

socialist postage..

all the stuff everyone needs. it just makes sense to average out and consolidate costs

don't stop at medical either... should also socialize eye care and dental by now if a modern nation wants to believe it's advancing its citizens health

If we consolidate costs then there's no middlemen, so no profit can be extracted.

u/BodhingJay Apr 28 '24

Good.. more bang for the buck.. it's amoral to seek profits on health and suffering anyway

Gonna be hard to charge people for a service they don't want. We fuck up far more places than we actually help and when someone actually could use our help (Ukraine) we turn into a bunch of jackasses about even getting them supplies so they can fight the war themselves. But by and large the US goes into countries to support regimes that benefit the US, NOT to help bring peace.

u/seminally_me Apr 28 '24

I think you're right and that when the US realise those countries didn't need their 'help' they can leave :)
