For everyone: Progressive politics could become your preferred politics if they became less bigoted/moralistic.

I think there are specific aspects of the progressive movement I could get behind. Since I do think infrastructure needs more funding. But as a whole, not really. The social aspect seems misguided and they tend to go overboard with their spending plans.

One of the issues we deal with in Canada is dental care. I can't imagine the pain of having my teeth rot out and taking NSAIDs (not opiates) to deal with it. I think getting one's teeth extracted should be no-cost to the patient.

I'm not familiar with Canada's healthcare system. So they give drugs instead of dealing with it? That's odd. In the US, I just paid for private insurance and the dentists office/insurance broker lied to me so I can't even get fillings done. The experience really changed my mind.

My parents paid to get my teeth straightened and for my twin to get cavities filled but that's it. In other circumstances I would pay for others to get 'emergency' treatment out of taxes I paid because of the detriment to society of people being in agony due to their teeth.

It's the next step after shelter and food. If you can't eat the food...

Dental is a weird practice in the US. I will never understand why hospitals don't have a dentist. It's not life threatening. But tooth pain is probably worse than what a lot of people go into the hospital for. Good teeth seem rather important to me also.
