RE: Socialism works so well it brought back polio!
Point 1: I will need a credible reference for that
Point 2: Not real polio!
Point 1: I will need a credible reference for that
Point 2: Not real polio!
Point 1: WHO I guess, use google
Point 2: What???
point 1: you are the one who made an argument, show me your evidence and convince me (propaganda posters won't cut it)
point 2: ok, I should have said "not real communism/socialism", hope now you get the joke. If you ask me, venezuela is the perfect example of end stage socialism.
Weirdly point 1 is true (reference), but it should in no way be synonymous with a good thing. From what I gather most communist countries (at least) had compulsory vaccination, so its more like the North Korean strategy from World War Z than how we would see health care in the west. Effective but not overly "patient centred".
This has proven to backfire since many of the eastern bloc became independent. Not sure why but might be a very understandable distrust in all things government.
Not at all weirdly.
Good health care for everyone is one of the central ideological points after all. They may fail at it, and you may not like the methods, like compulspry vaccination, but weird? not at all!
