Healthcare
Then why isn't America rioting?
Because it didnโt disappear overnight
Can't riot against something being taken away if you never had it in the first place and have convinced yourself that you don't need it ๐ซ
They should be. Really.
Militarization of the police, and a extremely unfair, draconian, for profit prison system.

Non-US people have such an hilariously skewed view of the US healthcare system
I'm an American in my mid 30s. I've traveled to other countries, made friends with people in other countries, and I myself lived in Germany for a few years. I'm pretty sure my view comes from an adequately knowledgeable position.
Then why aren't you rioting?
