COVID-19

[Sky_Nova_20]

Please though, do some research! It’s time to get woke people. Our situation won’t change if we remain complacent with our government and believe the lies that people say. America can get better, a lot better, but people are lying to themselves and convincing themselves that what we have right now is good and it’s even better than the systems others have. Ask friends from outside the US what their healthcare, university systems, care of the homeless and poor and government are like. Research and learn well. Open your mind

But nobody is actually going outside because of the stay home orders?

Online is literally where people gain new knowledge, in the COVID - 19 era.

The United States is the freest and most accepting country in the world. Unfortunately, no matter where you go, or how much is done, there will unfortunately always be people who discriminate against others. And why are we talking about this in a Covid-19 topic?

It isn't either.

Better than most of the world, yes.

MOST though?

I can tell you as someone form a diverse background, who has also been in the United States, that unfortunately th at is not true.

Absolutely!

Brother E: I don't know what you guys are saying, but America is pretty free here. It is very care free here in Florida.

Oh yeah, and the bad healthcare here, well you can thank Obamacare for that. While our healthcare is probably pretty good here, that made our healthcare so much worse.

[Abu]

Yes, "pretty free" is accurate. It is by no means an authoritarian country, and among democratic countries also much better. But "most free" is complete propaganda fed to American children. Simply by going to Canada, Australia, New Zealand, or most of western and central Europe will lead to you realising that the United States is not quite #1 here.

[Abu]

I'm not even going to mention the Obamacare. That did not affect the actual healthcare system, it just made it more affordable for those who are making less money.

There is currently a large astroturfing movement going on trying to end the United States lockdown:

Be careful.

Brother E: We are mostly free here. What can't we do here? If we weren't so free, we wouldn't have millions of immigrants flocking here.
And yes, Obamacare made it worse. People can't keep their doctor like the plan says.
We couldn't keep our doctor. We had to keep changed from different doctors.

What's better about Canada and central Europe than America? What do they have that we don't besides free healthcare?

What's better about Canada and central Europe than America? What do they have that we don't besides free healthcare?

Canada has the following that is better than the United States:

- Stronger democracy, including more faith in democratic institutions in the country
- Lower corruption
- Higher freedom of press
- Freedom of expression, rather than just speech
- Longer life expectancy
- Lower income inequality
- Lower crime rate (including homicide rate)

This applies to most countries in central Europe compared to the United States as well, if not all...

I am on phone but I can back this up with sources (I only gave points that I know are true according to certain quantifiable sources). So if you want to know a specific one let me know.

Also, the healthcare is not free. It is paid for by taxes, which is worth it in the eyes of over 90% of this country.

Russia also has millions of immigrants flocking there though and it's not a free country.

Brother E: True, our freedom of speech is a little limited, but other than that, it's free living here

Yeah, I'm not saying the USA isn't free. I was born in a democratic country, but we have a lot of restrictions there and the police control almost everything. This doesn't happen in the USA orCanada.
