@mat11217534@CodyCullenShaw1@theresa_may electricity is 4x the price of gas, that’s because it’s pinned to the price of gas on the international market, not because of clean energy! it’s determined by the most expensive form of energy needed to meet demand, which is almost always gas. https://t.co/hKEK3nY0Jj

@nycconservat@ElloydNoir@sodiumPen Londons transport system kept going during COVID, and the government made it free for key workers like supermarket staff and hospital workers

@GUNSGOATSGARDEN@SoTerriblyTired@jvgraz under socialism the government still takes the same amount that they’re taking under capitalism - except it’ll go towards healthcare not tax cuts for the rich and war
@ClanPetrie@Kyeruiz_@Kelly0303@CubicCanuck because they pay their staff more, like we could be doing - it’s a political choice not an inevitability. the point is it literally is an endless pot of money - and as we pursue progressive policies that create wealth - we have more capital to invest in the nhs
@ClanPetrie@Kyeruiz_@Kelly0303@CubicCanuck the funding comes from us and no ‘cuts or borrowing’ isn’t the answer we first tax the rich like they do a lot more in your other european nations - can you not see in that paper that the areas the nhs is weaker in is ‘resources’ ‘staff’ and ‘funding’ which are all easy fixes!
@ClanPetrie@Kyeruiz_@Kelly0303@CubicCanuck yes you can if our national insurance were to go through an independent body but the evidence is here and shows that the aspects the nhs lacks in are the direct result of funding and resources - the areas it does well in is to do with the system itself https://t.co/RM540t5f6C
@ClanPetrie@Kyeruiz_@Kelly0303@CubicCanuck as i said - private involvement in public sector healthcare is not a good idea - we have the best system here it’s just not funded well - and politicians want you to believe it’s the system and not government policies that make it bad
@Kbreezy665@Kelly0303@Kyeruiz_@CubicCanuck america is the perfect example of what happens when you don’t redistribute wealth and have any socialist policies whatsoever - no public transport, no healthcare, no wealth inequality, just profit profit profit
@ClanPetrie@Kyeruiz_@Kelly0303@CubicCanuck because if you’ve noticed the state of our infrastructure now can be traced back to stealth privatisation that was accelerated by thatcher and carried on through blair - more private involvement in the nhs will make it worse - we have the best system here it’s just not managed
