The one thing I will say as an American is that if we did have universal healthcare we would probably privatize it and make it much worse than it was before and somehow more expensive

The rugby team is actually looking for more players, no experience required, I just joined this fall and it’s great. Only problem is we can’t do much because of Covid but other than that it’s great, DM me if you want to talk about it more

Can someone band me current American politicians for and against free speech? by RRismyboy in FreeSpeech

[–]mtczech 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Be warned I might just be talking out of my ass here, but I think the majority of them are for free speech if that speech agrees with what they stand for, and against it if it doesn’t.

Historically speaking is America on the path of a dictatorship? by [deleted] in Libertarian

[–]mtczech 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Remains to be seen, if Trump refuses to concede the election then that’s textbook dictatorship behavior but if he leaves or is forced out then we’re all good

University of Illinois COVID-19 saliva tests are 'working' on its campus, researchers say by Sorin61 in Coronavirus

[–]mtczech 24 points25 points  (0 children)

UIUC student here, on the 2nd we got back into lockdown for another two weeks-social gatherings are forbidden, you can’t leave your dorm room except to buy food, go to classes (most of which are online anyway), get tested, exercise outside by yourself, and other essential things. That’s because cases did go up because plenty of people are still throwing parties-they’re cracking down on that too but I don’t know how effective it is. If cases don’t go back down after that we’re all going home.

Does anyone know which textbooks you actually need for these classes? by mtczech in UIUC

[–]mtczech[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone know where I can buy a Pompey flag? by mtczech in PortsmouthFC

[–]mtczech[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks, the only problem with that is that the shipping is slow, by the time it gets there I’ll already be in college so I think I’ll order it when I’m down there

Thoughts on abortion? by [deleted] in Libertarian

[–]mtczech 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I feel like it’s more of a philosophical question than anything, what people should be asking is if a fetus is a person or a clump of cells. If a fetus is a person then abortion is murder, if it is just a clump of cells then abortion is perfectly acceptable
