It’s worth looking at why the UK (and Germany and Japan) were able to provide these services at a reasonable cost while the US can’t. All of those countries rebuilt their social contracts after WW2 ended. The US built the New Deal (which has mostly been dismantled and/or sabotaged since), but we haven’t really changed the social contract or updated most of our welfare / safety net systems for the modern age. People who want those things simply don’t see how they fit into the current US social contract. |
