    Because they didn’t choose to be born poor and probably work harder than you. Any other questions?

      I don’t think my vibe came through. It’s a response to the friend you mentioned who doesn’t want to pay for healthcare.

      “Why should we pay for their healthcare?”

      Because it’s far more humane than the poor subsidizing the bank accounts of the mega rich with our labor and getting as little as possible in return.

        Oh yeah, I definitely missed it. Thought you meant why are the poor getting things for “our labor”

        I’m also not the one who mentioned the friend, but that’s unimportant

            Me neither, have had a couple gins and tonic. Decided to try raspberry gin with lemon bitter tonic. Awesome

            Not on topic, just wanted to tell you that was one of the nicest conservations I’ve red online. Good on you for being so understanding and cute.

            And coming from a country with universal healthcare it should totally be a human right everywhere. I hope one day the working class in the USA will win!
