A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

You found the only liberal argument for healthcare.

Honestly, those are important arguments and people would be wise to make them.

Outside this bubble that kind of talk is very accepted and desired. Convincing people it's better for the economy, starting a business doesn't risk losing healthcare, businesses now don't need to waste time and money picking health insurance plans, etc. Are all valid arguments and would only help achieve the end goal of universal healthcare.

Well, the same applies to social services (welfare) and education, and the rich and powerful already know all this. So why do you think they don't want us comfortable, educated, healthy, and secure?
