FWIW, social democracies like Norway, Sweden etc have big businesses. They have billionaires.
They also have universal healthcare, quality free education & child care, and programs to curb poverty and food insecurity.
How?
Their billionaires pay taxes and don’t control the government.

So let me get this straight. These Democrats are ok with nobody being able to afford health insurance and now they're siding with Republicans to take away something a lot of people use medicinally? I didn't think I could get any angrier at them today but I was wrong.

Spent ~2 hours getting smogged for $150, 2+ hours and $1100 at the DMV and 4 hours texting with Verizon (and got $124 out of them of the $200 that they stole from me.)
Most of that time was spent waiting. A year of waiting on cancer might be making me better at it.
