Really? You were basically saying the TV channel is as important as the healthcare and asking you don't get it why people are stuck at health care. And I told you why healthcare beats the TV channel! Which part of my argument you are having a hard time understanding? Let me ask you this way: which one you would be your priority if I asked you? Health care or the TV channel? Considering this and all the bullshit Americans talk about the free healthcare it's surprising to see you (Americans) pay for a TV channel for a foreigner like me. So, I hope I made my point clear for you to get it.

    Okay. Let's go over what you said and what I said. In your original response you said the following: "we also fund public libraries and schools. Im not sure why healthcare is what gets people. (i am it's the constant propaganda and people want to defund libraries and schools)" I've took this as you don't understand why people like me (foreigners) are always talking about the healthcare, because I don't understand what you're trying to say afterwards. Constant propaganda about what? Healthcare? Libraries?...

    I said what I said healthcare being more important than the TV channel and libraries and you responded with "Im not sure what you're saying here. I think that healthcare should be government funded, and at the same time I don't believe PBS (The Public Broadcasting Service TV channel, government funded and nonprofit, not private) should be defunded. They've created countless television series that have aided education and acceptance of other cultures.

    I think that instead of taking from the US public infrastructure (Like PBS or Schools) to fund healthcare, we should be taxing corporations and billionaires more. Thats what most of the american left (the actual left not the practical right wing democrats) believe.

    I'm not exactly sure what your point is, but it reads as if you believe there are Americans who are anti-socialized healthcare, but also pro-PBS. I have never seen that opinion held by any american."

    So, basically you are the one who misunderstood what I'm saying and responded to me that you don't get what I'm saying. So, I tried to make it more simple by saying basically in my opinion health care is more important than a TV channel. And it should be for anyone. Which it means as I said in my original reply funds should be used to better people's lives instead of funding TV channels.

    Now here we are you're blaming me that I'm trying to fight with you and I don't understand.
