Any alternative to employees is even more inhumane and enables explicit exploitation, as uber and lyft do (aka the gig economy). What would you suggest as a meaning for this third type of workin class?
- scarface74 8y agoHow about we have universal health care like every other industrialized nation?
- AlexTWithBeard 8y agoA universal health insurance may be unfair, non-american, going against a free market ideology and endorsing nanny state. But it would relieve so many problems, from homelesness to our overly litigious society, that I'd vote for it with both hands.
- scarface74 8y agoSo why do we feel that it is “Unamerican” to not let people die on the street because they can’t afford health insurance? I thought we were suppose to be a “great moral Christian nation”? There is nothing about the American health care system that has anything to do with the free market. Before the ACA, if you had any type of pre-existing condition, you could not buy health insurance at any price.
- AlexTWithBeard 8y agoVery rarely religion shapes the moral, rather than just encloses and protects the existing state of things. I guess the roots of this "American" morale is those times when you arrive to the New World, you disembark the ship, and nobody owes you anything. You don't owe anyone anything either. If you don't like it, don't board the ship. The times have changed. The morale, as it often happens, lags behind.
