      Americans going to the government owned post office that isn’t profitable: Wow, I sure am glad that there is a way for me to send and receive mail, it’s a service everyone needs.

      Americans considering the government opening a grocery store that might not be profitable: This is totally unsustainable and there is too much stealing for this to exist. People do not deserve access to a conveniently located grocery store.

      I always try to forgo people’s political stance and just debate them on issues as humans. Sucks that these particular humans ignore everything that doesn’t fit their agenda and they all have no fucking responsibility and claim innocence and blame everyone else. It’s pathetic.

        If you actually debated people as humans maybe you’d have some empathy for the common people affected by this issue rather than bootlicking

          Not selling something is usually less profitable than selling something, it’s not bootlicking to say there may be a reason so many stores closed.
