Like Bernie Sanders? Who was then placed in a debate in an “insurance town” where every audience question was some insurance leech complaint that his plan would destroy their jobs? Yeah dude. That’s the point, your job is bullshit and you shouldn’t be doing it.
The media also loved to bring on people who “adored their current insurance plan and would hate to lose it”. I’ve never met someone like that in real life, but the MSM would have you believing you
were the only one in all of America who had any ill thoughts about their insurance company.
There’s nonviolent revolution, too. But it’s still likely to yield violence in response because these systems are inherently violent and ultimately enforced with violence.
The mainstream media also doesn't mention that Americans already spend, on a per capita basis, the most on socialized medicine on the planet. I wonder if it has anything to do with those drug commercials that they play constantly?
By my understanding, that's the most on health care. This includes private insurance premiums, which is why the "we like private because it's cheaper" argument doesn't hold water.
Interesting. In the summary, it's not clear what qualifies as "compulsory health insurance":
> Health care is financed through a mix of financing arrangements including government spending and compulsory health insurance (“Government/compulsory”)
Digging into the source report[0], we see the following footnote exclusive to the US:
> All spending by private health insurance companies reported under compulsory health insurance. Category “Other” refers to financing by NGOs, employers, non-resident schemes and unknown schemes.
The root is you. The root is people believing they can change things. The far right believed it and has (unforunately) achieved inconceivable successes based only on utter bullshit and madness.
That’s one way of looking at it certainly. However I’ve never in all my life voted in any election where my vote had any capacity to have any bearing whatsoever on the outcome of the election. This is by design: America is about clumping people together into voting blocks so large that first past the post dynamics prohibit any but the most conventional of viewpoints rising to the surface.
What have the “far right” changed? And was it through voting or other means? In a sibling I admit violent revolution as a plausible change causer, and claim it is unique in that regard.

If voting could change anything it’d be illegal.
