      Then the murderers would be the voters who consistently choose this system.

          It’s a core DNC stance. They tried to pass it the moment they had supermajority with caucusing Ind for 72 days in 2013, but the Ind betrayed us and we lost it by 1 vote in the senate. Instead we got the medicaid expansion and CHIP renewals which support 79 Million Americans currently.

          The fact that the GOP is currently trying to gut it is even more proof that this is a clear partisan issue.

          If people voted for Universal Healthcare then we would have it. But they don’t vote for it.

              Democrats. The DNC stands for the Democratic National Committee, they’re one of the nations two core political parties.

                I know what the DNC is. I’m asking who we specifically could have elected that would have gotten us universal healthcare. It wasn’t even on the platform agenda for 2024.

                  Any Democrat is better than any Republican.

                    Yes, but I’m asking you to back up your argument:

                    Then the murderers would be the voters who consistently choose this system.

                    Then who should the voters have chosen? We’ve had many Democrats, but no universal healthcare. It’s not even part of their platform. Yes, they’re better than the Republicans by a country mile, but you said the voters chose this system, so who could we have voted for?

        Yes, it’s totally the voters fault and has nothing to do with the broken system that is kept in place by powerful corporations bribing (lobbying) those in charge to keep the system broken for their own benefit and profit. You fucking donkey.

          The voters chose to keep the broken system, so yes.

            Obvious bad faith argument; I’m not going to waste my time engaging with you any further.

        When did you vote on this? I never had such an opportunity

          You have the opportunity every single election cycle. The sides haven’t changed in decades.

            Which side my vote is on also hasn’t changed in decades. Arguably a big reason I live where I do is finding other people who also vote for our future, everyone’s well being. However voting between fascists and centrists isn’t good for anyone

        That would be called 𝘦𝘯𝘢𝘣𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘨 the murderers. The healthcare industries could in theory decide to save many more people without going bankrupt. They are still murderers even if half of the us voted to hand them a knife
