California

That explains your views

It depends on where you live

I live near chicago

Taxes are bad

Not every Californian is a liberal

If we get universal healthcare in US, my family wouldnt make enough to sustain itself

Taxes also cost money. It would be better just to buy a plan which is cheaper here.

62% more taxes on income. Thats like more than half of your paycheck gone to healthcare

Is it really that worth it? No

@sarge Medicare should be allowed to negotiate prescription drug prices to keep them low

Thats what I want, but having free healthcare is fantasy

@Andrew_Hunter which will lower the doctors pay as well as the amount of money research america has for medicine.

Drug companies do rip us off on the cost

The prices of prescription drugs these days are just downright unethical

We also have a group of people who take care of that.

Look at Skrelli and congress.

Shkrelli*

I believe the government should regulate the prices of medicine. But universal healthcare is a socialist unreal fantasy

The USA is different from tiny European countries.

True and we have much more infrastructure

I don’t believe it’s acceptable for thousands to die every year because they can’t afford medical care

Ok but universal healthcare isnt the solution

They can they just don't want to fork over the 60 bucks a month for it and aren't smart enough to get health care at 18

Putting money in the pot early is important for insurance.

Also those people arent your average americans that get jobs. A lot are just people relying on welfare who are to lazy to get a job

Bernie said so himself if you work hard you can get rich.

And yes he did say that which agitated his base.

Thats true because my family came here as immigrants during when Yugoslavia was communist. They were starving. They came here and worked their asses off. They now have cars, house, farm and more

The american dream is possible

Gotta work hard Welfare isn't going to sustain you long term.

They arent dying on the streets

If you work hard you can get rich but not so rich that the Walton family owns more wealth than the bottom 50% of Americans

They didn’t receive welfare or free medicare

1 family should not own more wealth than over 150 million people

Did that family work for it?

No

Yes, so did generations before them

Oh they got rich from no where?

Yes they did. And also wealth doesn't stagnate. Rockerfellers were the richest people to ever exist but now are not.

The Walton family is no different.
