UHC is cheaper than the current US healthcare system. You can literally have both.
Funding for Ukraine isn't holding up UHC. Bad politicians are.
Someone needs to force their hand, if you just give them what they want anyways, there is no reason for them to do anything for u
Not sure punishing Ukrainians who are being raped and murdered in their own homes forces their hand in any way whatsoever. Seems like the least efficient way to do it.
Ukraine is not my concern.
I'm so annoyed by all these European freeloaders.
See the problem is that Biden could have easily negotiated some deal on Ukraine. That then doesn't require any resources spent on it. But because he has some shady buseness interests there - they used state resources to fight for his fucking personal business interests.
That's the problem.
Don't for a second think america wants to help someone. We dont help. We don't even give healthcare to own citizens , what do u think we would do to others.
Republicans spent significant efforts trying to prove shady business interests of the Bidens in Ukraine and never managed to find jack shit that ever seemed improper.
The US acts in its own interests. Countering Russian imperialism is part of that. They're not helping Ukraine out of pure good will, sure, but in this case US interests do align with doing the right thing.
