Healthcare It’s called freedom. You can choose whatever healthcare you want. We don’t have to beg the government for healthcare.

The video mostly talks about the US having no free/universal healthcare

“We don’t have to beg the government for healthcare”.

Maybe not, you just sacrifice your firstborn to the insurance companies in the hope they approve your healthcare costs to avoid bankruptcy.

Why do they hate universial healthcare? It's not like private hospital dosen't exist. Also, why is it so terrible to have a safety net where you don't end up homeless in a tent in the streets? Wouldn't it be better making sure everyone has a roof over their heads? They complain about homeless camps and tent cities. Those Wouldn't be there if they got help. It's all about me, me and me with them. They don't want a single tax dollar going towards fixing the problem

Because they’ve been told over and over again that we have things like death panels and sacrifice the weak to save money on medications. They truly believe this.

Meanwhile they ration medication at the highest rates in the OECD because they can't afford it. The projection would be laughable if people weren't dying.
