The political compass in the west is so leftwards that everything mildly centrist is considered far-right.
How can corporations and news media be socialist? Excluding the obvious like the USPS, NPR, and such, independent corporations/media can be socialist by openly supporting and promoting socialism.
You don't even have free healthcare in the US? Well, actually yeah you do. Medicaid. The US is already a socialist country. Social security, welfare, food stamps, section 8 housing, unfair taxation, etc. all exist. Kill all of this shit and give me my money back and we can start to talk about a rightwards political compass.
Plus they honestly believe the healthcare is free. But I’ve heard this logic from people who insist that there is no such thing as far left
It's so frustrating because there is absolutely a discussion to be had regarding why the US spends more on Healthcare (price gauging, unhealthy diet and lifestyle, among many other reasons). But you can't have a productive discussion with a retard who can't get past the idiotic notion that "Healthcare in Europe is free."
US healthcare averaged 20 billion dollars a year on just updating administrative changes to adapt for regulations. That was in 2018, it’s easily double that now with the Medicare/ Medicaid is forcing more strain on the system under Biden. The US still produces about half of all medical innovations in country and funds about 80% of all medical innovations worldwide. This doesn’t even include the strain of state laws that force hospitals to eat costs constantly or pass them on to patients. The mass conglomerating of hospitals is the intended socialism of healthcare, they are forcing private practices into non existence through bureaucratic red tape and regulations so independent doctors must sign up with a network just to not be bogged down with constant paperwork. This is just the tip of the bureaucratic nightmare that is “privatized healthcare”.
Yep the bureaucratic leviathan is absolutely a major component in health care expenditure.
