We're the only 'first world" country without centralized healthcare. So the other countries that have done that would be... All the other first world countries, and all of them spend way less on healthcare then we do in the US.

What happened is two of them died, one retired, opening up three spots. One actually died during Obama's term, but the Dems let the Republicans delay the appointment thinking Hillary was a shoe in and then lost that position. Stronger governance and they could've appointed one of their own before Trump. Also RBG dumbly (and selfishly) did not retire under Obama, another Dem misstep out of weakness and unnecessary righteousness.

But for the most part are American cars bringing that much more value for the price? If the average American car lasted 250,000 miles with little maintenance, maybe that would be worth the price.

Definitely true, but you never hear conservatives complaining about all the paid leave they get or the healthcare benefits they enjoy.

If some conservative president really wanted to walk the talk, they'd axe all those benefits for everyone.

Some departments in the US government give you a paid time off day every week to use however you want. A lot of people would take every Friday off, or some would stash them for a longer vacation.

It's wild to me how internally the government offers the kind of benefits politicians should've pushed into law a long time ago. It really is "for Me, not for Thee".
