      You know what I think about sometimes is how it’s so weird that in America it’s the duty of our employers to provide health insurance, meaning it’s a cost to the business. Universal healthcare would free up shitloads of capital and have a huge impact on small businesses’ staying power.

        I’m convinced that health insurance companies continually lobby Congress to prevent any gor of universal healthcare so that they can continue to leech off the American public. Hell, tax filing companies have already been doing just that for decades.
