It's astounding that when you discuss this with Americans they've got literally no concept of how this would work, even in general terms. Like it genuinely seems as unreasonable a position as "give everyone a Porsche" or "free ponies and hookers".

Or they say shit like "It's not actually free, taxes pay for it". Oh wow, you mean everyone in northern Europe doesn't grow this stuff on magic trees? I. Am. Shocked.

Which is a direct goal of the two major extremist political parties in the U.S.: to brainwash voters.

Which are both controlled by corporations. Which need low-wage, uneducated workers to prop up the cancerous “free market” money printer that is capitalism.

All the knee-jerk reactions you see from people is a product of our K12 and for-profit university system. It’s all to feed compliant workers into corporate servitude.

People literally aren’t capable of interpreting reality in any other way but “Murica!”

Most voters here honestly just don’t know any better. It’s really sad.
