What you don't understand is that there is a disconnect that exists between the market and the educational system. Whereas the market demands degrees involved with engineering or science, colleges are providing a surplus of low iq morons (see: the OP) who believe that a bachelor's degree in gender studies is going to lead to a comfortable life style. Hence, you complain about how unfair your life is that you are 90k in debt, because the majority of liberal arts majors overestimate what their creative pursuits will accomplish in the real world. This problem is further exacerbated by the Department of Education giving out loans to anybody with a pulse, and the profit-seeking colleges who happily give out garbage degrees for that sweet, sweet guaranteed government moolah. Making college free would not solve anything, other than adding yet another tax liability on the strained working class.

Our modern centralized debt based economic system is rigged.

The use of debt long term based systems, such as mortgages, loans etc has pushed up the expense of living because it allows people to live outside their means artificially. Yes, it does raise the short term traditional 'standard of living' as a $30,000 per annum earner can now have the lifestyle of a $60,000 per annum earner if he is willing to shackle himself to a life long debt, but it also has a knock on effect of making anything tied to those debts raise in price exponentially because people can now afford to pay more for them through said loans. Houses, cars, electronics, dental treatment, pretty much anything you can think of inflate in price infinitely while salaries stagnate.

This results in an unstable dip/peak economy with zero stability and one that eventually collapses under it's own weight as the scales balance higher and higher in to debt to unsustainable levels for the average man. This happens on both micro and macro level.

This also makes it almost necessary to be caged in long term debt as a normal earner as you must use the leverage given by the debt to afford to live in modern day society. This allows banks to create a monoply on loans with a never ending demand for them because they are mandatory. This monopoly allows the banks to create systems/raquets to keep this demand and monopoly such as credit checks, which ensure the only way you get these near-mandatory loans is by consisntently getting in to debt and paying interest. You have to roll over and prove you are a good goy.

In the long run this takes money from the general population and gives it to the hands of the banks. And people do not care because they get a shiny new mercedes that they have to pay off for the rest of their life.

All of the things mentioned in the OP are the government doing something similar but instead of you getting a new mercedes, tyrone gets to harvard to study his degree in post-race theory.

>There’s nothing wrong with FREE universal healthcare.
>There’s nothing wrong with FREE college.

But neither of these are FREE are they? Because you're paying for them forcibly for your whole life through taxation. Here in the UK we have something called national insurance, which is the bill for ''FREE'' healthcare that is forcibly taken from your pay cheque every month. It scales with your wages, so if you earn more you actually have to pay more from your wages for the exact same service from our national health system, which is mediocre at best and terrible at worst. This national insurance bill isnt cheap either. It probably comes out at around 5-10% of your total salary/wage that is FORCIBLY TAKEN from your wages to pay for a system that you likely use maybe 4-5 times in your life. With that money, even if you earned 22k per year, you could afford to save $1248 per year for a fund for healthcare or go private. The idea of individual responsibility has been phased out in society as techonogy has advanced to make group-think prevail over individuality.

200 years ago you were responsible for your whole family, their health, your posessions, your earnings, your survival etc.

Now the government is responsible for all of those things and you have to play by their rules in order to get them.

The usual rebuttal to the above is the standard "ohh well YOU might break your arm one day or get cancer and if there was no universal healthcare you'd be sorry!"
Well yes, if i was a retard who squandered all of my earnings on shit and never saved for such events then yes i would. But it would be my choice to do so. Not the governent's boot on my neck making the decision for me. Responsibility is synonymous with power and if the government gets all of the responsibility for my choices then they also hold the power over me to make those choices. And to them i am one of 80 million in my country so why would they care if what happens to me is good or bad?

people's life expectency past infancy hasnt actually raised that much since the ages of cave men. People have always had a natural life expectency of around 70-80. It wasnt like in the middle ages 45 years old was seen as old age. Deaths in child births dragged the life expectency down. In fact, life expectancy past infancy has actually gone down a little bit in the past 20 years due to mass obesity.

1. You do not need to cut out all technology in order to understand what the industrial revolution has done as a system in order to fundamentally change society's fundamental structure and direct it away from a direction that benifits the happiness of humans.

2. You as an independent person being can have the majority of the more primitive things mentioned. Plumbing , heating, transportation if you work for them and learn how to be independent, but will also allow you to go through the power process, which is vital to becoming a happy and stable person. You only like the convenience these things bring. You're addicted to them like a drug.

3. You have no understanding that each piece of fundamental society changing technology has a huge array of knock on negative effects on human interaction that damages the human psyche, the environment, etc. For example, the invention and mass production of the car has created city and urban planning that makes travel near impossible without a car because cities are more spaced out to accomodate them, making you reliant on technology and the government in order to function. Or as another example, that the rise of the internet and mass communication has resulted in a huge spike in male celibacy as women's hypergamous instincts are now intertwined with near infinite choice of mates. Each introduction of technology is a 100 sided double edged sword.

I'm ok with some of what you said, but free college is a bad idea. Too many people go to college already and just drink/fail out/are not ready/etc. College degrees shouldnt be required for jobs that don't need it. People should start their careers without degrees and companies can subsidize the education if their employees need it.

>There’s nothing wrong with universal healthcare.

I live in Canada and last year I buried my uncle.

He had a weird thing on his neck which, after waiting 3 weeks to get in to see the doctor, was told it was probably fine and to come back if it got bigger or weirder and they'll do some tests. So, after a couple of months, it was in fact getting bigger and weirder, so he made an appointment, and another 11 days later he got to see his doctor, who went "oh shit" and ordered some tests. The doc put a rush on his lab work, but he's 65 so even "rush" is low priority, so it took another week before he could get in at the lab. A week later he got the news that he sure as hell has skin cancer and they needed to book him with an oncologist. It took a month to see an oncologist.

By the time he got to see the oncologist he was stage 4 and they advised him not to seek treatment.

Didn't cost a dime! In the States he would've been at the lab the same day and he would've had a chance. Up here lab capacity is constrained, so doctors are discouraged to order tests unless they think it's really necessary, and after that triage gets done.

>b-b-b-b-but it's expensive

Pretty sure he would've loved the chance to be bankrupt and alive at 66, rather than dead for free, so doped up with fentanyl for the pain at the end that he couldn't talk when we'd visit.
