I feel this is intentional; the government allows foods with low caloric value, various chemicals and preservatives, and excess sugar, making obesity and overweight common, in addition to diseases caused by a lack of decent food. To me, this happens so that more people have to ...</description><pubDate>Sun, 11 Jan 2026 19:03:11 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Reply by &quot;Angels.fall_Spiders.crawl&quot;</title><link>https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=785724</link><guid>https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=785724</guid><description>The privatization of healthcare is a PROBLEM.

They&#039;re also relatively common but are small enough that most women don&#039;t notice it due to the symptoms being super minor. They also tend to run in families and many doctors dismiss &quot;female problems&quot; (which is a whole thing in the medic...</description><pubDate>Fri, 12 Aug 2022 16:49:53 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Reply by &quot;Caitlinv&quot;</title><link>https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=291096</link><guid>https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=291096</guid><description>I&#039;m a Pharmacy technician and something I quickly learned is that private insurance is a fucking joke and half worthless. Pharmacy benefit managers are massive assholes and that my state&#039;s Medicaid is the best, most comprehensive and actually gives a shit about it&#039;s members. I also get the health authority emails and electronically sit in on some meetings.

The slightly higher taxes are worth it for me, my loved ones, and my neighbors to not have to choose between necessary medical care vs. buying food and paying bills.

The underlying reason why we would care about this is, Imposing a state of freedom creates an environment in which producers are best able to gauge dem...</description><pubDate>Sat, 20 Feb 2021 06:49:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Reply by &quot;xX emo_walsh Xx&quot;</title><link>https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=12109</link><guid>https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=12109</guid><description>Hey sure Quinn that’s a good point. When libertarians talk about liberty, we talk about being in a state of freedom. Not imposing a state of obligation. So libertarians are more concerned with the state of obligation that is created when something like medical care treatment is mandated to be free.  The reason this is concerning to us is because it creates a state in which there is less incentive ...</description><pubDate>Sat, 20 Feb 2021 06:42:36 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Reply by &quot;ppf&quot;</title><link>https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=11581</link><guid>https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=11581</guid><description>i don&#039;t claim to know anything about infrastructure, but i do think it&#039;s incredibly stupid people can&#039;t have vital procedures due to the price. im a pretty definite leftist, and even i know one of the core libertarian values is the right to &quot;life liberty and property/the pursuit of happiness&quot;. doesn&#039;t &quot;life&quot; include proper medical treatment?</description><pubDate>Thu, 18 Feb 2021 17:33:24 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Reply by &quot;xX emo_walsh Xx&quot;</title><link>https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=11177</link><guid>https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=11177</guid><description>A lot of assumptions and insults for someone who hasn’t asked any constructive questions to find out what I actually believe/have studied.</description><pubDate>Tue, 16 Feb 2021 19:28:18 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Reply by &quot;xX emo_walsh Xx&quot;</title><link>https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=11064</link><guid>https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=11064</guid><description>Sure sure I’m agreeing with you.
