Not necessarily. Lots of people already release their “fun” things they make for free. If you had all your needs taken care of, you could release anything you made for free a lot more easily.

That being said, there will always be limits even if you don’t have to work, there are only so many major sports teams that can be owned by a single person. There can only be so many stays per night at fancy hotels in a particular city.

People really don’t understand how debt works for governments. This is not a personal credit card. Governments can actually make money off having debt if it’s done properly.

Government spending goes into the economy, it stimulates a ton of different people and industries. Those entities are then taxed, and if the stimulus improves the industries, the taxes can actually be more than the cost of the interest. Even just paying a ton of government employees pumps money into the economy that they spend to buy all sorts of goods and services.

On top of that, inflation makes interest on government debt easier to pay off. The government issued trillions of dollars of that debt at stupidly low interest rates over the last decades, and now they’re collecting taxes on much higher incomes to pay it off.

Tl;dr It’s not as bad as it seems because economics gets complicated at that scale.

Focused on trying to stop the next one in every way except restricting guns, or funding mental health care, or reducing hate, or… Well anything that takes more than thoughts and prayers.

What a country.

I would say the primary reason for going there is the entertainment center, not the food.

The one thing even Americans who have health insurance don’t realize about single payer healthcare systems, is that we don’t worry about it.

We don’t consider it when switching jobs, we don’t think about it when we’re sick, we don’t worry about medical bills… we just go to the doctor/hospital, and worry about getting better or dealing with the work implications of taking time off.

The weight for that piece simply doesn’t rest on our shoulders or minds at all.

You’ve been tricked and brainwashed you into thinking what you have is normal, and it’s disturbing how many of you think it’s a reasonable way to continue.
