"developed country" that's a racist microaggression

American exceptionalism means the richest country in the history of the world can't afford to do something that every other developed country takes for granted.

That, of course, is nowhere near true. If by, "takes care of" you mean provides them with health insurance or health care.

bentone - Have you ever thought about why we are the richest country on earth? Maybe it is because we have never believed it was the place of government to meet all of the needs of all of its citizens. Maybe it is because we as a people believe in self reliance and individual responsibility. Yes, we are different from every other country on Earth. We are exceptional. "Every other developed country on Earth takes care of ALL their citizens. We're the richest country on Earth. Of course we can do it." There are any number of things we can do that we should not do. Especially if we wish to remain exceptional. Being a Left Wing Liberal/Progressive/Communist you will never understand this. None of you pinko, commie idiots have learned anything from history.
