Yes, we're a profoundly broken country in how we use our wealth. But you were over here acting like no other country that isnt entirely and devastatingly impoverished is failing it's citizens this way, and I'm pointing out that no, once again we fall in line with developing nations rather than developed ones. And for those of us who wish for it to be a functional country, I think my framing is much more useful.

And i apologize for assuming you're a European who knows nothing of anywhere beyond the Eurosphere and assumes developing nations don't even have running water.
