A place for for news, discussion, memes, and links criticizing capitalism and advancing viewpoints that challenge liberal capitalist ideology. That means any support for any liberal capitalist political party (like the Democrats) is strictly prohibited.
A zero-tolerance policy for bigotry of any kind. Failure to respect this will result in a ban.
RULES:
1 Understand the left starts at anti-capitalism.
2 No Trolling
3 No capitalist apologia, anti-socialism, or liberalism, liberalism is in direct conflict with the left. Support for capitalism or for the parties or ideologies that uphold it are not welcome or tolerated.
4 No imperialism, conservatism, reactionism or Zionism, lessor evil rhetoric. Dismissing 3rd party votes or 'wasted votes on 3rd party' is lessor evil rhetoric.
5 No bigotry, no racism, sexism, antisemitism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, or any type of prejudice.
6 Be civil in comments and no accusations of being a bot, 'paid by Putin,' Tankie, etc.

MODERATORS
Sorry, when someone says "more than it costs Canada to fund its universal healtcare", I guess we most commonly think in total, like years or something. So I find this unintentionally misleading
It literally says "since Brian Thompson died"
Also for only 40 million people
That's the population of Canada
We got there in the end. Good work boys.
But not of the USA
Not every person in the USA has insurance through United Health, but according to their own website, they "provide care" [sic] to 7.7 million Americans.
Doesn't that mean that UnitedHealth costs more than Canada if extrapolated though? 🤔
Yes, that's exactly the point. The middlemen increase the cost and provide zero value.
Negative* value.
You shine like a beacon of understatement.
Because funding of literally every other ongoing thing doesn't occur over time?
