    SatansMagotyCumFart, are you being intentionally or unintentionally dense?

      I don’t know much about this topic, but I’m seeing a lot of uncontested claims of “us spends more on healthcare per capita” in this thread, leading me to believe that more money won’t fix the underlying problem.

      Okay, I know that user, and they’re a fuckwit, but they’re right. If you think defense spending is why we don’t have universal health care, you’re extremely uninformed.

      Which is somewhat excusable if you’re not American, but if your are, for shame, my dudes.

      Unintentionally I guess, I just wonder what the defense budget has to do with healthcare.

        There should be less defense budget and more healthcare budget

          What’s funny is that there should be less healthcare budget because the current cost per capita for the whole US is the highest in the world even though public healthcare only covers a minority of people. If actual universal public healthcare was implemented like in any rich country then healthcare spendings would go down dramatically.

          We already spend more on healthcare per capita than almost every other country.

          More healthcare budget won’t give us universal health care. All we need is the existing budget, plus single payer.

          I think

          There should be less defense budget

          Is the reason tankies brought this post up. They don’t actually give a shit about health care.

          I think everyone thirteen and older should get government-supplied methamphetamine rations to increase the GDP.

            I think you should take the entire ration of gov supply meth. Oh sheeeeet I believe you already did.
