Ah, its always healthcare in US politics, isn't it.
Yes, where they argue over which convoluted plan that ultimately benefits insurance companies is "better" and which is "totally communism."
Excluding the obvious choice of everybody gets Healthcare at no higher average cost to the individuals.
What planet do you live on where people don't care about healthcare funding and policy?
In many countries it's been working long enough that unless someone tries to fuck with it, nobody really thinks about it
Yeah, but more and more countries are getting more and more far right shitbags fucking with public services
So this is a bit hard to gauge because (as you most likely know), outside of the US, it isn't just a left-right line that explains everything.
In my experience the far right shitbags are more about "Keep our country ours" and "Keep the tradition of marriage pure" (aka let's deport all black people and criminalize the gay). But in my country at least they want to keep healthcare and such. It's the liberals, aka the center right, that wants private health insurance. At the same time, the liberals socially are quite liberal...
