If you’re got universal health care, I don’t see how that would lead to voting for Democrats?

I'm a Candian. I'm suggesting that voting for Democrats would be far more likely to get you universal healthcare than voting for the neo-fascist Christian nationalists.

Sadly, it is not.

Democrats could have implemented a universal health care system under Obama, but chose not to. They, as much as Republicans, are profiting from the price gouging in our health care system.

They didn't do it last time so vote neo-fascist Christian national because they surely will? Give you fucking head a shake.

They didn't do it last time.

Respectfully, it's not "they didn't do it last time". It's "they never do it". It's never going to happen. Democrats have demonstrated that they are just a corrupt cog in the system, a system that ensures the wealthy keep acquiring vulgar sums of money they don't need, while life gets harder and harder for the working class and the poor.
