The argument for Nationalized healthcare is, "We all have to take care of each other with our tax dollars".

How far does this go?  If one believed this consistently, then they would not support nationalized healthcare (NH), but internationalized healthcare(INH).

Basically, every country with NH agrees to form a treaty that states that they would join an INH pact, largely funded by the rich globalists.

Oh, wait?  Countries like their independence.  Alright.  Kind of like people.

I don't respect NH; I can respect INH or I can respect the American model; but NH is too arbitrary.

You can argue that having food, shelter, and sundries that help mental health like entertainment all fall under "healthcare"

When a country goes full central planning, this is the end goal.

I believe people should have food, shelter and entertainment.

I like how you just assumed that I dont believe that?

Thats a lie.

Its called "leading people to conclusion".

You wanted to make it seem like we dont want people to have healthcare, shelter or food.

Nice try.

Sigmund Freud....

Sigmund Freud's statement "sometimes a cigar is just a cigar" is often interpreted to mean that not everything in life has a deeper, hidden meaning or symbolism. It also suggests that people should not always try to look for hidden meanings or subtext in everything, and that sometimes things can be taken at face value.

There's a famous anecdote involving Sigmund Freud and a cigar, which is often recounted to illustrate Freud's theories about psychoanalysis.

Here's the story:
Legend has it that during a lecture, a student asked Freud, "Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar, but why is it that sometimes a cigar is more than just a cigar?" This question was meant to challenge Freud's tendency to interpret everyday objects and actions as symbols of unconscious desires and conflicts.

Freud is said to have chuckled at the question and replied, "My dear colleague, sometimes a cigar is just a cigar." This response has been interpreted in various ways. Some see it as Freud acknowledging that not everything has a hidden meaning, and sometimes objects are exactly what you expect them to be.

No, I dont want his opinion.

So sometimes its not?

Really gotta stop getting knowledge from people who died before AI was invented, unless those people are Karl Marx of course.

You know that's not what the EU did and quit pretending like it's what they did.

But some things in society have to be socialized (like public school should exist.  Without it, we would be stupid.)

Now, maybe public school should be less "woke", but it's a horrible idea to just eliminate public schools.

So some amount of socialization is needed.

They haven't done it yet, but it's hard to deny this is the goal.

It would be easy for them to try socialism if it's what they wanted to do; but you think anything left wing of Rand Paul is socialist.

The word, "socialist" for the right is the word, "racist" to the BLM left.
