My dog is fine, though, which is the most important thing to me. The raccoons scratched my arm kinda bad and my legs are covered in scratches. My doctor can't be sure if the raccoons had saliva on their claws, and wants me to get rabies shots just in case. She sent me to an ER because she can't get the shots in our area.

I've been at the hospital for 3 hours and haven't been seen.

It's after my bedtime and I have to wake up at 5am for work...

I'm not having a good time.

Meh free healthcare is in our constitution, just like many other countries in Europe. The only place experiencing this problem to this degree is the United States. It's not a capitalist problem at all.

some friendly advice, maybe don't cite your explicitly socialist constitution when explaining that capitalism isn't ackshually the problem.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

This is why we need better education in the US.

Also, this is why we can't have healthcare. We don't know why we deserve it.

I was talking to a person once about single-payer Canadian healthcare. And she said, but what if someone doesn't work? Should they still get it?

[I mean, yes.]

I said, how come you don't ask that question about cops and firefighters? You don't say, well if someone doesn't work, should the firefighter's come to their house if there is a fire? We have single-payer police insurance and single-payer firefighter insurance.

But after the fire, you're on your own!

America! Fuck, yeah.

Socialism in EU may not have the meaning you think it has, it's very distinct from communism. It can be called social democracy, like Bernie Sanders, maybe.
For example, the previous French president was from the French Socialist Party and the current primer minister of Spain is from the Spanish Socialist Workers' Party, and they are not radical lefties.
In this case, socialism means accepting the free market capitalism for the efficiency it may bring to the economy, but with good regulation and, mainly what the USA lack, a good social safety net (free healthcare, free education etc...).

Socialist constitution means they have in there provisions to impede the private ownership of the means of production.

I will put as little effort into my replies as you put into yours. Looks like I have my work cut out for me

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Phew. I'm glad you got that off your chest. Do you need to sit down and take a break now? From all that cleverness?

You're a last word guy. Shocker...

Do you have a point you'd like to share about my support of socialist health care systems, or are you this boring and fucking obtuse IRL as well?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Who are you calling obtuse, you tubby bastard?
