Is this free healthcare you speak of in the room with us right now?
Is he mad that young adults can stay on their parents’ health plan until age 26?
Which the parents pay for… They just don’t know what words mean anymore.
People are checking out because the middle class is non-existent. It doesn’t matter how hard you work - the the prospect of getting ahead, owning a home, retirement is out of reach for the vast majority of people.
People can work hard and stress themselves out or they can check out of the system and achieve largely the same result.
This is about the failures of late stage capitalism. To claim the issue is free healthcare is gaslighting.

Free Healthcare ? In Amerikkka ?
Since when ?
So us person here. This free healthcare he speaks of is news to me.
He gets free govt Healthcare and probably stays at home playing video games. It’s all projection.
free healthcare
does he think everyone in the US gets the same healthcare that congresspeople get?
Please tell me more about this free healthcare
This is rich coming from someone that has literally never worked a days labor in their lives.
Young men as a cohort have a 90% employment rate.
Putting aside the, “Everyone but an idiot knows the poor must be kept poor, or they will never be productive” logic, it’s also just dumb as shit to claim that “able-bodied young men” are going to be super motivated to get off the couch for the sake of health insurance - not even real healthcare, we’re talking about paying hundreds of dollars a month so that if you get sick you can “only” be saddled with a very high deductible.
I fucking hate these people’s guts. Something something Luigi’s Mansion.
Where can I get this free healtcare that pays your rent?
By getting elected to Senate or Congress
Oh sweet i didn’t realize my healthcare covered video games
The amount of dirty looks I got today casually playing slay the spire on my steam deck as a 41 year old man in the waiting room of a medical facility was pretty impressive.
Cmon they were just jelly u had a deck lol
It’s so sweet. I am bad at consoles and haven’t owned one since Sonic made his debut but this thing rocks.
Music is making younger generations lazy.
Nono, it’s books.
Nono, it’s film.
Nono, it’s TV.
Nono, it’s music again, but only certain kinds of music like rock and metal.
Nono, it’s video games.

And we’ve made their environment worst than ours and it’s their fault.
Fucking youngsters
Young men who are capable of playing video games all day are likely depressed, and have a clinical problem. Our volition to be productive was demonstrated during the 2020 lockdown and the great resignation of 2021-22, in which young men (as with all other working demographics) learned:
- They felt better in a non-toxic work environment
- They couldn’t couch potato for more than a week without getting fierce cabin fever, and
- They got highly skilled when they were doing a thing they liked.
The ones who resigned from old jobs were the ones who were able to monetize their hobby enough to quit. Many more got productive, but didn’t find something in their craft for which there was a ready market.
Speaker Johnson is a fierce MAGA and conforms to the common fascist trope of never speaking in good faith. See Sartre’s antisemite quote.
With several perspectives including that crunch remains a thing in AAA game development, our ownership class and CEOs are less concerned about maximizing profits than they are being lords with a feif and peons (compulsory servitude).
Oh and death to all monarchists. Disney deaths preferred.
Theres nowhere in the country that has legitimate free healthcare, and only a small handful of states that have healthcare for those below the poverty line.
Where are these supposed young people just living it up off free healthcare?
I would prefer to work a job than to grind in a videogame. Unfortunately, Americans live in a nation where bad working conditions, low pay, heavy competition, instability, and ghost jobs makes job seeking unpalatable.
American capitalism is a cancer.

True. Even the Nordic Model nations are backsliding from what I hear. It is why I think that we need to try an wholly artificial economic system, with rules and principles. Similar to a Constitution’s framework, but focused on providing for the wellbeing of all citizens.
Yes socialism will work with another name attached to it.
The only social system that can work is if democracy comes into the workplace, and that is what socialism is. When workers unite and control the means of production, then we will all truly be free. This is what Marx meant by saying: “Workers of the world unite, you have nothing to lose but your chains.”
The only problem is the name. Some have called it democracy at work, but I feel that is not snappy enough.
