> ~42%-45% of the US population is in Medicaid, Medicare or other government healthcare solutions Please, not this argument again! Medicaid is an health insurance, not free health care! They are completely different things (no, it's not the same thing as providing free healthcare) And btw, only 23% benefit from it "providing free health insurance to 74 million low-income and disabled people (23% of Americans)" > Progressiveness is vanishing from Europe, while the US is becoming more progressive by the decade The only progress US has made has been the number of homicides... A nation where a thousand people every year are killed by the police and that has almost 700 people in jail every 100,000 of population (25% of the global jail population) looks more like a dictatorships than a progressive country. As a comparison in Italy for the police to kill a thousand people it would take 333 years. USA has only 5.5 times the population of Italy.
