    OMG, yes! I know people typically think of universal healthcare as a socialist policy, but I really think it is a capitalist one for this s very reason. How many innovations have we missed because someone needed to stay at a shitty job for the insurance?

      I don’t think capitalism has anything to do with innovation really. I mean its not inherent. The essence is really just the more capital you have, the more you can get.
