So I'm pretty liberal. I think that acceptance of others differences should be a thing. I think that society as a whole should take care of itself so as to have a healthier, more educated and happier population. Publicly allow the tools for everybody to live such a life. But the idea of Medicare fucks me up. It's for the elderly and disabled. Which, because of Medicare there are more and more. The elderly population is going to increase and we'll all just fund the old age of people that couldn't themselves. In my idea of how society should be or whatever, you're given the tools until you yourself can't use them and if you haven't utilized them to the point where you or your family can sustain you, then, well that's on you. But it's up to society to a point to allow that opportunity.
But right now we have an ever expanding population of useless and probably miserable sacks of flesh just being kept alive for...? Sentimental reasons? Because it's the right thing to do?
We've become so scared of death and every part of our culture(america) allows us to ignore it.
I still think that some form of universal healthcare is best. But goddamn. People aren't realistic anymore, if they ever were.
I dunno. I just had that thought. Thoughts?
Bump?
