I hate how “anti-war” has been hijacked by these people to mean, let imperialist countries invade whoever they want with no consequences. (in the case of tankies, any imperialist country that isn’t in NATO).

UHC is cheaper than the current US healthcare system. You can literally have both.
Funding for Ukraine isn't holding up UHC. Bad politicians are.
Not sure punishing Ukrainians who are being raped and murdered in their own homes forces their hand in any way whatsoever. Seems like the least efficient way to do it.
Republicans spent significant efforts trying to prove shady business interests of the Bidens in Ukraine and never managed to find jack shit that ever seemed improper.
The US acts in its own interests. Countering Russian imperialism is part of that. They're not helping Ukraine out of pure good will, sure, but in this case US interests do align with doing the right thing.
I think you need to learn how the Military-Industrial Complex works, because if weapons aren't going to Ukraine, and it sounds like they won't, you still won't get your socialized medicine. Especially not in an oligarchical fascist dictatorship.
What are you doing to get "we the people" to do that other than arguing on the internet?
You one post ago:
You now:
Which is it?
Fair, but it misses the trees for the forest. The US already pays WAY more for healthcare than any other country. The money is literally there, just mismanaged. While I feel your frustration, simply cutting aid to allied countries won't change anything domestically.
Really? You're going to complain about one country's genocide and justify another in the same sentence? At least be consistent
Okay so DO something about YOUR healthcare then.
