The CBC interviewed one of these people and that guy was basically only cared about money and though paying lower taxes would be better. Probably didn’t factor in paying more money for health insurance.
But there was a guy nearby out walking his dog. When told what the interview was about he said “Is that what that rock over there is for? So we can throw it at him?”
I think it’s just terminally online people that are greedy as fuck. But there isn’t much risk of that 10% taking us over. If anything, they’re the ones taking a risk if they express their collaborator bullshit publicly. 10% with soft support vs. 90% that are absolutely against everything they’re about.
We’re also underestimating how much Americans pay for insurance every month. It’s like a whole second rent. Which I guess we pay through higher taxation but then again, we don’t have to worry about setting up a gofundme if we get sick. Not to mention the secondary effects of this precarity: the whole premise of Breaking Bad for example doesn’t make sense in Canada.
The deficit level is also very extreme in US. Everything so far under Trump means much higher levels, and low growth so that expands faster as % of GDP. The illusion that deficits/debt is free is something GOP complains about when they are out of power, but their “more tax cuts for the rich solution” and soylent green for the rest when they get power doesn’t solve the problem.
Collapse of the US will harm world, economically. A good defense to being an attractive takeover target, unfortunately, is defend Canada through large deficits to match their collapse timing, unless we stop making US enemies are own enemies.
Yeah so much of American culture is influenced by their terrible healthcare. Feelgood stories about people pooling together their money to help someone with their medical bills. It making sense to sue a family member for being injured in their house because it’ll mean their insurance will cover the medical bills.
Yeah it’s like 10%

Don’t underestimate the number of idiots that will vote to inflict pain on everyone. Fight it, if you can. Signed, a population learning the hard way.
