Like you're presumably unconscious and at no point ever consent to be liable for the cost, and yet people get billed. It's like if someone just came and did a bunch of work on your house when you were asleep and then sent you a bill.

Like, just wack. It's like if you passed out in Walmart and an employee put a cell phone in your pocket, took your money, then gave you a receipt, and people were like "hmm yes that's legit"

It is wild how countries less powerful and substantially poorer than the US can afford this apparently onerous cost. A mystery that will never be solved

Well, my country is not exactly poor. We just have a huge innequality.

Anyway, have you ever tried to listen to the people you guys label as communists in US? Turns out that most of them are not communists at all! They are just fighting for their right to have access to good healthcare, good educational system and good job regulamentations.

Surely there is a communist here and there, but most of the people that is labeled as communist is not communist! They just are tired to live in a place where profit is prioritized over people

You're posting on Hexbear. WE'RE the communists.

I don't really know each instance, but now I'm alert about hexbear

Lmao we do like the sentiment though

Welcome, friend! Poke around a bit, we have a bunch of cool folks around here.

I don't live in the US, but I have reached out to the circuit of communists, socialists, and vague "left leaning whatever" people in my country. We largely have public healthcare here and decent worker and consumer protections, but it's still capitalist and it's still shit.

(Australia btw)

Exactly most of the world... Capitalism is destroying the world in the name of the profit.
