the expenditures
are tough
We literally spend the most in the world on healthcare and have some of the least uninsured
Which when you combine that with having to manage hospitals, and equipment, it means that quality will almost always suffer, and lead to longer wait times, and worse care.
Phenian, what?
yes, bernie confuses demsoc and socdem
single payer healthcare in america would be a disaster
300 million people
not paying a dime
for the expensive-ass healthcare they're receiving
@Your Favorite Martian =3 Healthcare is a very difficult thing to manage, both economically and politically.
the quality of healthcare would lower
and the GDP percentage put into it
would skyrocket
no profit would come out of it
no profit?
do healthy people not produce profit?
an estimated 155 million people
under 65
were insured
@Deleted User They do, but you would have to hope that the costs and profits would even out in those terms.
healthcare in the US
has been costing less and less
since the 2000's
people are getting less and less insured
as a result
are you sure that's because of the free market
uh, yes
and not technical advances?
technical advances are a result of capitalism
lower prices are a result of
competition
@Deleted User Oh you said that "OG social democratic party was marxist"
The term had different meaning in the past. Like in the Russian Social Democratic Labour Party which turned into Bolsheviks.
@EALootcrates Not exactly, they are supplied and funded by capitalism, but are not the direct cause of advancements.
capitalism pushes for innovation
the crave for success and profit
the competition
And is that not to say that different systems would not push for innovation?
so cuba has the highest life expectancy in all of NA even though there were no job creators to innovate and all the doctors just lay around in bed all day and aren't paid anything
sectors that have already been explored into
are less profitable
