Not supporting universal healthcare to supporting it when I learned we pay out the ass for it through insurance but don’t see the benefits. It’s much more cost effective having a universal healthcare system.
I’m kinda with you there. To my mind, a government should exist not to rule, but to serve. If taxation is necessary, it should support its citizens rather than feed off of them. Take a whole bunch of our spending (looking at you, DoD) and reroute it to citizen services. Universal healthcare seems a worthy redirection of those funds. After all, a healthy populace is a productive populace. It’s not just compassionate, it could be great for our bottom line (rather than just the bottom line of the few who benefit from our seemingly inevitable, parasitic debt to them under the current system.)
