US spends about as much per capita on healthcare as many other developed countries. The issue is that your insurance companies pocket a lot of it. Be angry at them, not at Ukraine or the weapons going to Ukraine.

Except that in this case the situation really is black and white, no grey area. A peaceful sovereign country was invaded by some genocidal fucks and it is our duty to help them. Corruption is not an excuse to stop the support, because Ukraine is actively trying to sort it out too. They know what life is like in the EU and they want more of that.

For the record, I live in EU, some 60 miles from the nearest russian military base. I have personal interest in Ukraine's victory because if it falls, then my country might be next.

I don't know anything about Mali, which is closer to to me than Titanic, but I do know a lot about the Titanic.

As far as majority of the world is concerned, You are a billionaire too. Annual income of just $34k puts you in the top 1% globally. Why do you need so much wealth??

They didn't have radio communication. Water is really good at blocking all signals.

People tend to care more about the stuff that happens closer to them, or is somehow related to them. You probably don't care all that much about the armed conflict in Mali between the government, ISIS and Wagner Group.

Deepsea Challenger isn't operational. It's a decade old and in a museum right now.

That's what I meant, I can't agree with this explanation. Economic disadvantages don't create incels.

The Nordics don't seem to agree. It's still a poor and fairly conservative country with lots of pro-russian people.

You're fully committed to huffing that copium. Where are the Armata tanks? What is air defence doing? Kyiv in three days, right? :D
