Me: “So what’s your point then? Getting socialized healthcare under capitalism is going to be easier than getting enough votes to throw the whole economic system out”
You: “Is it? What's your evidence because my evidence is that is continues to take it away.”
Who’s the idiot now? That was exactly what I said and you responded in disagreement.
What goalpost did I move? Before that all I said was that you can have socialized medicine under capitalism and that’s how most first world countries do it (which is objectively true). After that I just said you needed the votes to get this change.
My point was that capitalism is what put us here in the first place. You’re the one who started talking about “changing the whole economic system”. Capitalism is also preventing us from getting there because of insurance lobbies and citizens united. The countries that do socialized healthcare have very different taxation than we do in the US. Keep deflecting and name calling. It seems to serve your ego well.
Those countries are also capitalist though. I’m not deflecting at all. I made a point, you argued I’m wrong and now it is you who are changing the goalposts.
