Wait a minute! This is the most American thing I’ve ever heard of… So, you’re telling me Americans fund TV channels but they complain and talk shit when someone talk about free healthcare?
Could it be because it’s one of the necessary things so that you can live your life without worrying if you can afford to go to doctor or get healthcare when you need it? You can live without the education and libraries but you can’t live without your health don’t you think?
This being said, I’m not belittling the importance of free education and libraries. However in this example it’s obvious that the money spent to fund a private TV channel because of it’s programs and content could have been used to better the lives of people. Somehow Americans who talk shit about basic human rights such as healthcare and free education are very relaxed about spending money for useless things such as private TV channels, but hey who am I to judge you guys. I’m not an American and you do you.
Really? You were basically saying the TV channel is as important as the healthcare and asking you don’t get it why people are stuck at health care. And I told you why healthcare beats the TV channel! Which part of my argument you are having a hard time understanding?
Let me ask you this way: which one you would be your priority if I asked you? Health care or the TV channel? Considering this and all the bullshit Americans talk about the free healthcare it’s surprising to see you (Americans) pay for a TV channel for a foreigner like me. So, I hope I made my point clear for you to get it.
Okay. Let’s go over what you said and what I said.
In your original response you said the following:
“we also fund public libraries and schools. Im not sure why healthcare is what gets people. (i am it’s the constant propaganda and people want to defund libraries and schools)”
I’ve took this as you don’t understand why people like me (foreigners) are always talking about the healthcare, because I don’t understand what you’re trying to say afterwards. Constant propaganda about what? Healthcare? Libraries?..
I said what I said healthcare being more important than the TV channel and libraries and you responded with "Im not sure what you’re saying here. I think that healthcare should be government funded, and at the same time I don’t believe PBS (The Public Broadcasting Service TV channel, government funded and nonprofit, not private) should be defunded. They’ve created countless television series that have aided education and acceptance of other cultures.
I think that instead of taking from the US public infrastructure (Like PBS or Schools) to fund healthcare, we should be taxing corporations and billionaires more. Thats what most of the american left (the actual left not the practical right wing democrats) believe.
I’m not exactly sure what your point is, but it reads as if you believe there are Americans who are anti-socialized healthcare, but also pro-PBS. I have never seen that opinion held by any american."
So, basically you are the one who misunderstood what I’m saying and responded to me that you don’t get what I’m saying. So, I tried to make it more simple by saying basically in my opinion health care is more important than a TV channel. And it should be for anyone. Which it means as I said in my original reply funds should be used to better people’s lives instead of funding TV channels.
Now here we are you’re blaming me that I’m trying to fight with you and I don’t understand.
Thank you, but which part of my writings you took as combative? You told me you don’t get what I say. I explained what I say why I said. It seems to me you continue to act like I was in the wrong. And it was my purpose to attack your person.
PBS is a remnant of an older America that attempted to improve things. It’s mostly funded by donations just like national public radio. Both are highly politicized because they have a history of apolitical pursuit of truth and that made them boogeymen of the right. The right has also done some capture of them because of that (much like the bbc).
Also universal healthcare is something we’re actively and intensively propagandized against. Despite that it’s still more popular than our politicians would have you believe.
