Whether or not universal healthcare is the right outcome, our current scenario really is not as strong of an argument for it as some people seem to be suggesting.

Would it have helped? Probably, yes.

Should the government be planned and organized in perpetuity to be optimized against functioning during a global pandemic.... no.

Same people decrying the Governments response to this pandemic are the same ones clamoring for universal health care.

Look into studies about certain groups attitudes towards things like guns and Healthcare and how their view changes when they find out certain "other" groups will also benefit. Once it becomes known that other "lower-level" groups will also benefit, all of a sudden they are not in favor of it.

Went for a pre-employment drug test yesterday. They never asked me if I was on any medications. I had to ask them and was told "oh yeah, just put any you may think make a difference in this text box." I put Xanax, Flexeril, and gabapentin. All of which are prescribed and used as directed. Now I'm terrified that I should have put ALL my meds, to including my psych meds. I've been sober over 12 years and never touched drugs (just booze) but I'm having a full blown panic attack.

Why do we always tell people “Be the best version of yourself before starting a relationship?”
I feel this is wrong…first, if you’re someone who constantly wants to be better, this doesn’t work. Also, what happens when you’re going through things and you’re not the best version? What happens is…the going gets tough and then one person leaves the other.
