A private healthcare system will be my death sentence and yours too. I feel like I am a dead man walking. But many of you are dead men walking too. In fact, anyone who is poor, vulnerable, or even just an average worker on an average wage in an economy with few protections are dead men walking.
All so true and there isn't any reality of a rational response in sight. Those who might be motivated enough are mired in distractions, which are reactionary or largely irrelivant, to the major essential needs of life ignored, or catered to with crumbs by an avaricious class of psychopaths. Huge swathes of the population in the US who should be allied, have been divided into largely ignorant camps of warring tribes. Many of the more educated owe their advantages of asset holding to the very abuses of decades which stripped many more of their futures. They are the class of liberals with "very socially concerned pinata's full of bullshit for all to admire." I questioned what the fiscalization of everything in the 80's, especially the basic essentials of life, would lead to. I was mocked by others, because I foresaw the celebration of exponentially rising housing prices would lead to their kids unable to afford home ownership. Education was next, gatekeeping funnels for corporations, with ever rising costs. Today, I'm happy I didn't create another sentient life, to endure a species which succumbs over and over again, to the deceptions of mentally ill power hoarders, whose focus and persistence it is apparently no match for. We have perfected only one thing under their violent control. The ability to completely wipe ourselves out, if not in a matter of a few hours, as we presently are, one environmentally destructive day at a time. All I can do now, is offer what alleviation of these consequences I can, shocked at how quickly and stupidly, we hurtle towards the darkness.
Taxes by sovereign currency-issuing governments like those of Canada, USA, UK, Oz, NZ are not required to fund the national healthcare services. Thinking or believing that they are necessary, supports the neoliberal agenda of privatization and commodifying healthcare for the benefit of the shareholders of Big Pharma and other medicare suppliers.

Valid point.
