We have capitalism and public health care im the EU.
If you stop using "le capitalism bad" more people will lisent to you.
Couldn't be more wrong.
We have public health DESPITE capitalism.
Capitalism didn't produce them, they were fought for and earned with sweat and blood by the people, same as workers rights.
And slowly but surely capitalism is breaking them down and eroding them.
Slowly but surely we are creeping towards the same situations in EU.
All thanks to your precious capitalism.
You can listen, or more people can get the Luigi treatment. I mean, it’s your choice, I’m good either way.
The EU has socialist / non-capitalist parties that have fought tooth and nail for socialized medicine and labor protections. The US doesn't have non-capitalist parties to fight for the working class.
So in other words, the US only has capitalism and our government only represents the interests of capital (our government doesn't do anything unless capitalists are allowed to get their hands in it to funnel public funds into private pockets)
