White House website publishes a page on "socialism". They think it will scare people to hear that if we tax 1000 billionaires, $355,000 worth of benefits will be distributed to 150,000,000 households.

Damn, that’s a lot less than I thought it would cost for everyone to have equal access to healthcare.

If it’s that cheap, why are we denying healthcare to anyone?

Because the United States is an open-air labor camp, and medical care is a stick to make us work.

Also keeps competition down. I know more than one family where one parent is working a shit job just so their business-owning partner can have medical benefits.
