Now, add to this the fact that #UniversalHealthcare (probably #SinglePayer) would actually ensure that mentally ill/unstable people would be afforded help, which would reduce the instances of school shootings *and* suicides (which are 2/3 of gun deaths here), and it’s maddening.
And it should upset you, too. Because imagine if universal healthcare actually got this kind of a push, and this kind of media coverage. It could change the world. And unlike #GunControl #GunControlNow, it *would* immediately save *thousands* of American lives *every month*.
But it universal healthcare doesn’t get this kind of a push because the healthcare industry are also huge advertisers. And because, again, people don’t seem to care about deaths that won’t happen to them. This is why white people are less incensed about POC killed by police, too.
I encourage everybody to *always* #followthemoney. Ultimately, money is why certain things are covered by our media, and other things aren’t. It’s not morals or principles, it’s just money.
The same money that allows 100 poor Americans per day to die for lack of health insurance
In the end, the hashtag says it best: It’s #MarchForOURLives, which denotes the self-interest at play.
If people who have health insurance were to march for universal healthcare, it would be altruism; ie #MarchForTHEIRLives
Self-interest, as always, is the problem here.
No, it takes a complicit media and party apparatus. And if you think the parties care about you, I’ll just have to wait for you to figure it out.
Please , just hush.
