I have an argument with a friend where I support free college, Medicare4All, Green New Deal etc. & she tells me we need an "incremental approach;" that such things are "too far left." I tell her they're centrist in Europe.She says "We're not Europe." I bang my head against a wall

The "incremental approach" is nothing but a compromise that leaves the Insurance companies in place to stay in control. It's half-ass and doesn't fix the problem.

US has collective battered woman syndrome at the hands of GOP. Ppl have been abused & told they don’t deserve to be healthy & educated for decades now & they have come to not only believe it but actively resist it. It’s insanity

Reasonable people would choose to live in a country where people don't die, and families don't go broke due to a predatory healthcare system. Is the country that put the 1st man on the Moon incapable of providing healthcare to all of it's citizens?
Denmark is a "Social Democracy" Their society is centered on social programs, like ✅ Socialized Healthcare ✅ Socialized Education Happiest countries: 1. Finland 🇫🇮 2. Denmark 🇩🇰 3. Norway 🇳🇴 4. Iceland 🇮🇸 5. Netherlands 🇳🇱
