Well, look at what we have here! What do you wanna bet she's a Bernie supporter? Anyone want to tell her?
The odd truth is that it is only the right wing of american politics that is talking about "free shit." The left explains how they will pay for "free shit", which makes it not "free shit". For example bernard is a advocate of medicare for all. It will be paid for by increased medicare taxes. It is claimed that your total medicare taxes will go up less than the present monthly cost of your private medical insurance -- which you will no longer need, resulting in a net savings. Even if you now have employer paid medical insurance someone is paying for it. It is not free. You are likely paying indirectly through a lower salary. We shall see. But it's true that only the right is talking about "free shit." There is a lot of very strong evidence suggesting Bernard is right. Its found in every other industrialized nation. However there is also some strong evidence that Bernard is wrong. That evidence is found right here in the United States. Of all the industrialized nations, the United States has the lowest ratio of socialism to capitalism in its mixed economy . And capitalism is all about profits and not about efficiency or saving individuals money -- in capitalism the way to save money is to buy a new car on sale using credit-- in other less capitalistic economic mixes the way to save money is to avoid buying a new car when your old one works just fine. Capitalism is about credit, and using government regulation to capture can't-lose markets where the buyer has to buy and can't walk. Can an efficient, moderate cost, medical care system survive full-on capitalism? We may get a chance to find out in the unlikely event that the next moscow election miracle fails and both the White House and the Senate fall into the hands of the Democrats. Don't hold your breath though. You'll likely be dead before that happens.
Math is clearly not the strong suit of anyone making these claims. Try working out some examples and see for yourself.
The correct understanding is that the left does not talk about free-shit because they do not recognize it. They are raised to believe at birth that they are entitled to everything so any free-shit they receive is actually just a payment toward what they are "owed."
Its too complicated for my simple brain. I just use the numbers from other countries. When I do that a miracle happens. The all come out with amazingly lower medical costs and much better medical outcomes. I don't know how they do it. They must be fudging the numbers! I wonder if they don't make as much money off of medical care, do you think?
Really? You think someone has to be a savant to understand how the lefty free-stuff mentality works? Might be a problem for you trying to figure out from within the lefty trance state.
You're really not making any argument here, just spewing nonsense. Not to worry, though, I didn't expect anything more.
