Btw during this argument several people have died due to not having Healthcare in America. But tell me more about Tony dooming this country. Tony shouldn't have to be responsible for saving America and being frustrated with people who let people die every day is pretty reasonable.

Our country's healthcare system sucks. And yet the voters punish anyone who makes an effort to fix it. Hillary Clinton got demonized for attempting to make healthcare a priority as First Lady, and that led to thirty years of smearing and an eventual loss to Donald Fucking Trump. The Democrats burned every last drop of political capital they had in the wake of Obama's massive 2008 victory, to pass the ACA, and that led to a blowout loss of the House in 2010 and a decade of Republican legislative control. In 2016 and 2020, Bernie's biggest and most prominent policy was medicare for all, and voters just didn't turn out to vote for him.

It fucking sucks. I get that. It really fucking sucks, especially for those of you who have a personal stake in the matter. I won't say 'us' because the closest I've had to an issue with our healthcare system is turning 26 and still being unable to find a stable job with a Masters' degree, which led to spiraling depression and fear about what I'd do without health insurance once I was pushed off my parents' plan. And that sucks. It's all fucking terrible, and healthcare SHOULD be a human right. But for whatever stupid and selfish reason, this country fights against the concept with every fiber of their collective being. And if the strategy isn't working, then SOMETHING needs to change to MAYBE gain some traction. It NEEDS to happen, because America fucking sucks and needs to be catered to in a very specific fashion because our population is stupid and self-centered.
