then stop themselves from plunging into the world of making sense—like, yeah, there should be universal healthcare system that covers people for all those things.

But that would sniff of socialism and we can't have that. And don't touch my unemploymet, medicaid or my parents medicare and social security. And I'm not giving back those three government checks we just got either.

There's a philosophical theory that political leanings are NOT a 2-dimensional line, left to right and that indeed political characteristics are more accurately placed on a circle.

You can move to the left and to the right, but move far enough and the 2 points will converge around the back.

Yes, nothing to do with this OP... lol... just a thought for the day
