  What about images sent from Japan? Aren’t they all pixelated by default? /s

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I'm a US citizen, people in other countries, what do you think when you read stories like these about the US health care system?⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Two main benefits/“public goods” from having your lives in a societal arrangement:

  1. Having an educated population allows overall advancements that wouldn’t be possible where education standards are low. If the protestant dogma of “work hard and you’ll get salvation” was still prevalent in all groups we’d still be chiseling stones as that is real manly work. Intellectuality is still mostly frowned upon in the US. The whole purpose is to work less and enjoy living as the benefit of having basic needs solved for. Access to free education has plenty of positive externalities that we aren’t even able to quantify. Would the US still be engrossed in its culture wars or other wars?
  2. Having a healthy population allows a sense of group and care for a country. Belonging to a country should mean that your fellow countrymen have your back in time of need. Father time comes for us all. How unpatriotic it is that people proudly wave their flags whilst letting their own fellow countrymen die from preventable causes or having to face choices such as living longer and getting bankrupt or let sickness fester until perishing. Not having free healthcare from an outside perspective is as unpatriotic as you could get.

  The US seems a prime example of too much emphasis on GDP and limited focus on quality of life. I’d rather be homeless in Cuba than in the US albeit all wealth and quality of life indicators are better in the US.

  Why not? And add couscous to it as well, also wheat-based.

  By normal people do you mean the savages that have a palate sophistication of Dhaka’s sewage?

  Correct. The sake brewed by the fuck is the best sake. Fuck’s sake is the best sake (Japanese rice wine for the uninitiated).
