I said I understand it, not that I support or even approve of it. It is similar to healthcare; I *understand* why someone would support the government hiring doctors and nurses, making the saline solution for your political border, etc. But that does not mean that I understand (((socialized medicine))), where we allow monopolies by private interests (AMA, prescription system, pharma patents, etc.) to treat obese people, who will never contribute to society in a positive way; the same (and many times better) way they would someone who takes care of their self and contributes to society. Ideally medical would be transparent and not encumbered by the state at all. If some shitty person wants care they would need to either find charity, or barter with the doctor for payment. There would also be many more doctors, and pharmacists would take a larger role in our medical care, maybe ordering strep tests and other routine crap that currently costs hundreds if you are an uninsured person.
