    They literally think that because the government would be running it, it would be wasteful and evil. Somehow their religious based nonprofits obviously don’t have waste and politicking.

    They don’t seem to comprehend that large numbers of humans working together is exactly what creates the need for red tape, politics, political correctness, bureaucracy, regulations… oh wait, shit, we made government again.

      All evidence around the world proves that government run healthcare costs less per person with better outcomes for the whole population. The lower cost is obvious since there is not profit cost on top of not needing for a ton of private companies to spend money doing a ton of individual contracts with each other as an additional cost before profit.

      Even with some corruption public ends up being cheaper than private. Other than the profitilability, most countries make the rich pay more of the cost through progressive taxes and the rich sure do hate paying their fair share.

      That’s the result of decades of brainwashing us in the US against anything government run. Can’t allow anything to be socialized lest the billionaires rake in slightly less money than they already do.

      Not everything has to be like the DMV. Hell, even the DMV is efficient where I’m at.
