@High8Studio Well, it's somewhat like religion. A whole lot of people have subjective beliefs that aren't based on any kind of reality, and some people take a more objective approach.
For example, it's really just an objective fact that universal healthcare is doable (plenty of countries do it), is cheaper (as is the case in those countries and supported by numerous studies), doesn't lead to Venezuela or all out communism (most countries with universal healthcare aren't bankrupt or communist countries), and amongst developed countries gets better overall results (the US has the highest infant mortality rate, highest maternal mortality rate, and lowest life expectancy, in the developed world).
So, yeah, anyone spouting any of that bullshit against it, is kind of mental.
Likewise, it's just a fact there's scientific consensus on global warming, it's just a fact that the rich don't put their tax cuts back into the economy, etc, etc, etc.
