    i mean isnt that just true? i remember reading that bismarck created a decentralized socialized healthcare system in 1883. it had compulsory insurance, free health services and sick benefits. there was increasing pressure to democratize the country. by tying healthcare to the state instead of labor unions or socialist political parties he defused some working class movements. thats what my textbook says at least

      yes, but that's a denunciation of the liberal position on universal healthcare - they're more reactionary than fucking bismarck. the problem is conflating health insurance with healthcare (something M4A does as well) and holding up bismarck as some kind of paragon.
