    Freedom isn’t free. It costs lots of money and time off your life. It also costs some freedoms.

      If you look at the Germany graph you can see that we privatized more and more of health care in recent decades.

    Damn, if the US spent as much as they do now, but had Israel’s healthcare system, life expectancy would be 130 years!

      You mean the most significant piece of legislation that Democrats have passed this century? The one that gave up on systemic changes before debate even started? Man, I wonder why people aren’t excited to vote for them.
