As a father of two young men... Good!
Healthcare is a right. Especially in the richest nation in the history of humanity.
Yeah! We gotta give people the choice to work or die due to lack of medical care! That's never been done before! What's that called?
What about all of those congress critters that get that big bad "socialized medicine" that the common people can't (funny how it is fine when it is for them isn't it.)? I bet that costs a shit ton given the average age of congress critters. How about we make some cuts there?
Does he realize these unemployed, dirty gamers who complain but don’t do anything productive tend to lean conservative?
Young men have no idea what health care is, nor do they care.
They are healthy and heal fast.
They are the ones who traditionally pay in and dont take out.
As someone who is 25 I must agree, not only do I not give a damn I actively welcome death. Shitty fucken eyesight not withstanding, I think there's thinner ballistic glass
He must be thinking we get the same healthcare they do. That's how far removed they are.
Why would anyone want to waste their life working for any of these exploitive cunts. I’d much rather play video games.
I mean I do know a lot of people with no real jobs that game all day and they have some sorta shitty health care that doesn't really get them proper treatment if that counts
Shit, they're on to me.
Luigi killed the CEO on call of duty, makes sense
As an Aussie who has always enjoyed playing (and making) games, I've had free healthcare all my life and have only worked my arse off.. Like most people I know.

nah they are playing video games all day because video games are more fun than toxic work environments and helping CEOs earn bonuses
Utter BS
Just in case you forgot, getting rid of video games is part of Project 2025. Republicans have had a vendetta against them since Mortal Kombat came out in the arcades back in the 90s. And in some ways they have been against them since their very inception with Pong and Tetris.

You know what, he's right. I'll go get off my ass to spend the evening running my 2 million dollar quarts mine and then swing by my 875k dollar quarts furnaces, weight seperation, flotation cells, and crystalization facility to create a bunch of semiconductor grade silicon used in solar and electronics production.
OH WAIT! I DON'T HAVE $3M FACILITIES TO RUN! Somebody else is out there doing the work that used to take a hundred men. The world doesn't need us all doing 12 hour days, the world wouldn't take us if we even offered.
Is this the one who gets his son to monitor whether he's masturbating or not? Or is that some other guy?
The problem is not this bloke. The problem is the people that voted for him.
Maybe. But in many areas, only one party realistically has a shot, so reps basically get elected in their primary process. So instead of needing a majority of the total population to win, you just need a plurality of the few who get involved in the primary process.
Blame the people involved in the primary process, not the people who only vote in the general election.
No that is what billionaires do mooch off the tax payer.
the population of young men who do nothing all day, have no interest in employment, but are also extremely motivated to apply for and maintain their access to healthcare and make regular doctor appointments
Mooch on guys!
I make time to do both 🤫
