Just look into the budget of say Sweden which is more rural than America, if the average gross salary is $2500/mo, around 30% of that income goes to municipality tax. Only 10% of that is county tax. That's all the money the county, which are in charge of healthcare has to spend.
And that covers not only the hospitals, but also public transit, the ambulance service, (trucks, buses and helicopters), all adjustments for handicapped, say that you need a wheelchair ramp, and elevator and more after an accident and a wheelchair friendly bathroom in your house, the county pays for that with tax money. It covers elder care, assistant living facilities, and even people who visit elderly regularly to check and help them clean their house, buy groceries etc.
And then there's still millions being stolen through corruption and illegals cheating the system pretending to be handicapped or who doesn't even live in the country. Somehow the system still operates around +/- 0 profit/loss.
but sometimes pain can be the best motivator to fix mistakes.
This is very true, and it's probably for the best that the situation got so bad as it got, because now everyone will remember to never ever vote green again.
and it is going to get too painful over here for it to be hand waved away here soon.
From what I understand, it already is pretty bad. I get the impression that Americans receive very little information about what's going on in the world, perfect censorship basically. This makes it easier to accept the downfall of your country, even tho people should be outraged.
Take something as simple as a stolen election, allover the world it would instantly lead to riots, the government buildings would be put on fire and politicians dragged out, beaten up or hanged. Even in civilized countries.
Some problems will be fixed at the local level, some at the state level.
Transfer power back from the federal government to the states, counties and municipalities is my advice. This should be main priority. The cabal relies entirely on centralization to take over control, and the more power the federal government has the easier it is for them.
Wish all of you Americans good luck too in your attempt to take back your country.
Finland's about to open up a brand new nuclear power plant, increasing their total power production by 10% and removing their dependency on Russia, France, and Switzerland are in the process of building more nuclear power.
UK and Germany invest in coal short term jut to secure the power supply, gas storage is once again refilled despite what fake news media says, there's tankers waiting to unload LNG who can't do that right now because storage is full.
Poland has been importing gas from Norway through their pipeline which opened just days after Nordstream was blown up.
As for immigration, Denmark is tearing down it's ghettos since a few years back, and halved free gibs for immigrants to scare them off. Sweden and Italy just begun applying stricter immigration laws, Sweden revoked all permanent resident permits and made them temporary, this simplifies deportations by a lot.
Many countries in Europe now rent prison space in foreign countries so that foreign criminals can be deported while having to sit in prison in their own shithole country. This to save money and discourage crime.
The left and green is losing by a lot in election after election and right wing majority start to happen in many countries, majority is rare in parliamentary systems.
We'll see what happens in the future, this is just the beginning.
Energy prices rushed up just a few months ago and all hell broke lose with protests against the green, greens being kicked out of government and even beaten up in the streets.
How's that worse than Commiefornia that's been accepting rolling blackouts for years, or Texas who did nothing after the complete grid failure, where many got their homes ruined. Where's the American protests against the green DemonRATs? You even allow them to steal the election right in front of your eyes.
The green has shut down some of the nuclear power plants for over 40 years, not even nearly as much damage as the DemonRATs has done in the US with rolling blackouts all the time in Commiefornia and the complete grid collapse in Texas.
Last nail in the coffin was US enforced sanctions against Russia, from where 2% of Europe's energy comes from. This has since been covered by Norwegian gas, and Finland are about to open up a new nuclear power plant in just a month. Germany reopen coal plants, basically every country in Europe is now firing up domestic energy production again while kicking out the last remains of the green.
There's a small temporary shortage which causes the insanely high prices in some areas, UK for instance who relies on Swedish energy exported via Norway with huge markup. None of this has anything to do with the war between Russia and Ukraine, that's all on the US, provoking and steering it's puppets in Ukraine to force Russia into war.
Socialism can only work as long people doesn't abuse it, which was the case back in the days of National Socialism where illegals weren't allowed welfare. National capitalism would justify more illegals flooding in, most people would rather kick them out then scale down the level of socialism or welfare to reasonable levels. But most importantly stop people from abusing it without having to add more government surveillance.
Shared systems like public transit is nothing wrong in urban areas like a town, a village, community or even a city. The key is to be able to offer such systems without simultaneously installing a mass surveillance system, but also offering transparency and properly deal with corruption that tends to find it's way into all of these systems.
