> A broken society

I don't think this is necessarily broken by any reasonable standard. If no medication exists, that's not "broken society". Nor is there not being money to give a bespoke treatment to everyone, no matter how expensive it is. If that's broken, no society in history has ever not been broken. Which is just a poor definition.

Yeah I wonder how people who say this stuff feel about the homeless? How do they feel about tax increase to fix "broken society"?

We feel fine. The ones against taxes never cared and pay the least proportion.

This is vs them talk is honestly pointless. You don't speak for anyone but yourself.
