30 People Share Experiences That Made Them Change Their Views Radically

In the end it costs America more anyway, I don't see why they don't just give people free healthcare.

Conservatives

Who gives a f**k? You're paying, and he wouldn't have been able to.

As a parent of a special need child, New Jersey school systems offer speech, occupational, and physical therapies as a part of their school day. They have dedicated ABA classrooms with very low teacher/student ratio (my son's is currently 2/5. A lot of the anger at US services is out of ignorance, including parents not knowing what is actually available for their own children, which is obviously sad.

Didn't you know that it's a sin to be poor in America? All good religious people should shun the poor, it's what Jesus would want. /s

It's both funny and depressing watching people so utterly destroyed and dependent on this broken system defend it.

His wife and child are fine, thank f**k. I hope those nurses never have to experience that fear and pain, racist piece of shits.

That's an outrage.

The Vietnam War was not justified and just resulted in more deaths. There was no "Domino effect" in Asia like they thought there would be. Millions dead, for f***s sake. Edit: Yeah idfk how I made that mistake but thank you

Look, through an honest lens, at the treatment of various peoples through the roughly 250 life of the U.S. and it quickly becomes evident that what America says it stands for doesn't really ring true. In the literal founding document of the country it says that it is a self-evident truth that all men are created equal and the country has not, at any point in its history, been able to live by that simple and self-evident truth.

No kid(or anyone) should go hungry in any part of the world.

For profit prisons are the shittiest thing ever, and the healthcare system is just as broken. Don't want to lose everything to pay for the treatment of a life threatening condition or injury you can't control? Guess you're f****d

Hubby had a heart attack in December 2021, then a stroke in October 2022. We had just about paid off my cancer treatments. I fear we'll never get out from under this

Please stop downvoting this person. They have a right to their opinion :)

I was forced to live in a hotel at one point, ironically, is more expensive than an apartment but it's the payment plan

What ever happened to free speech?

And people not vaccinating because #freedom :/

The system favors the rich, f**k everyone else.

"Essential" apparently doesn't mean enough to pay us a living wage.

It's like one moment you're sipping fine wine and the next you're drinking river water.

The rich will always be favored. Rich people like to say "Money doesn't buy happiness." but b***h poverty doesn't buy anything.

People who were born rich have no concept of money or struggle, what it takes to get overcome that struggle.

"You have money? Good, after this you'll have none" - A health insurance company ._.

I went around and around with a former cop, who retired and worked with me at his 2nd career. I asked did he (Floyd ) deserve to die for allegedly passing a fake $20? "No"..., and the cop that choked him dead was a training officer? "Yes".., and in your training, were you advised that if you held someone in that hold for too long you risked killing them? (eyes down) "Yes"

That orange f**k and his followers are to blame for a lot of that, though.

You say "this cannot be reformed". So, if you can't reform a country's problems, exactly what are you suggesting?

In the US legal system the victim is often accused of causing the rape. She dressed or acted improperly, etc. Nobody has the right to touch a single hair on your head without permission.

True socialism is horrible though! It's just as bad as true capitalism. None of both works in its pure form. We need both at the same time, one regulating the other. If it's done right, you get Denmark. And they're much further forward on the road to a truly great place to live in for every citizen than any other country even though they to have still some way to go. Vut if we want a fair and great society to live in, we need to stop thinking in extremes. We need to stop looking for the perfect system. We need pragmatism and the willingness to look at reality and what brings the best results in every situation. If the best solution comes from capitalism, it has to be used, if in the next situation the best solution comes from socialism, then so be it. And I promise you, in most situations you'll need a little bit of both

The Tories is the conservative party in the UK. Guess conservatives suck just as much anywhere you go.

Millions of unoccupied houses and millions of homeless people don't make sense :I

BOTH our daughters were WIC kids, I worked full time plus LOTS of overtime and still qualified.

Endless profit :I

The campaign they later admitted was clean and NOT stolen :3

Wait, is this person saying they were 23 when they first heard of the holocaust? They were born 1945, So it was still a pretty fresh event o.O

Bernie would make a better president than anyone else could at this moment. I genuinely don't understand how stupid you have to be to think he's bad.

There's a lot of love for a rapist on here

I had a really nice red hat that I liked before Trump. He ruined it.

I'm curious about how Obama betrayed us all... He took a struggling country and made the economy better. When Trump came into office, the economy was doing great, but not because he did anything, he was just elected,and riding on Obama's coattails. It only took 4 years to get us back into a recession, but at least the rich are paying less taxes, and insurance is more expensive than ever for people who don't get it from work.
