sales tax, particularly on food, is the most regressive form of taxation, so it figures that's why it's so popular amongst american pols

you might want to rethink france because macron doubling down on austerity like he promised investors will turn it into a hellpit real fast

germany at least knows how to gently caress its own citizens just enough for them to not actually notice and then give them bread and circus to make them happy

Communism will help more white people than anyone else. Any equal measures unfairly provide less to minority populations just because there's less of them. Democracy is truly the tyranny of the mob.

but would single payer solve racism?

Yes.

I'm just going to say yes if anyone asks me that about anything. And then say well obviously we have to do other stuff too but it helps when they press me.

yeesh

this was not a stat I had seen

But it tracks. In elections where both candidates suck and you're basically picking for the one associated with fewer negative buzzwords in your head, the GOP will always win because old people are immune to low turnout.
