Almost every developed country except ours has universal healthcare. Almost every developed country except ours has some form of free college. How is it possible that Americans have been trained to expect so little?

My British and Canadian friends & family never have anything good to say about their government healthcare, unless you like waiting for months for treatment.

1/4 of this country still trapped in the confederacy. The democrat party has lacked a class analysis since they expelled lefties from the CIO. Schools, churches teach individualism & Puritanism while rendering our mass movements and communitarian ethics invisible.

'Muricans' are stupid sheep, and they unfortunately outnumber 'Americans' by about 50 to 1.

MLK said it 60 yrs ago “It’s Socialism for the rich & rugged individualism for the rest of us.” Americans have been brainwashed by Republicans & Corp Dems into thinking Socialism is scary when the reality is Republicans are secretly for Socialism but ONLY for the rich.
