Well if there are white supremacist groups making a ruckus, the media would love to cover it. I mean if the KKK and Nazis came together to harass democrats at restaurants, I'd like to think we would see some coverage.

I saw plenty of coverage during Trumps campaign where some groups were giving the Nazi salute to trump.

I am not even American and I saw it, which says it all.

I despise the left, they've become an extreme party. That's not just my view by the way, the wackiness of the left is arguably moving republicans to the center.

Well. The left isn't a party, so that's a mistake on your behalf.

The left is fine, the right is fine, it's just the far-left and far-right are shifting and becoming more vocal, which in-turn is grating to some people.
End of the day... Regardless of how much anyone whinges and complains about the left or right... Both political divides will continue to exist as long as people do.

More people in the center isn't a bad thing either.

Cost effective healthcare generally means long waits

I can assure you with 100% certainty that you are wrong.
How do I know? Because I work in emergency services in a system that is universal and cost effective.

It's not as black and white as that.

 Also, a lot of countries opt for a mix of socialized and private healthcare because often the social option kinda sucks. Otherwise everybody would just go with the social option.

My own country has a mixed system. And the social option is fantastic.
What happens is once you exceed a certain tax thresh-hold, the social option will no longer be free, thus making private healthcare the more viable option.
The more you know.

Socialized healthcare in my country not only provides a better standard of care, lower wait times... But it does so at a lower price.
If I was to injure myself, I could walk into the hospital and get it looked at straight away.

I don't care what white supremacy groups say, think, or do peacefully. If they wanna give any candidate a Nazi salute, cool. Its the violence and harassing that get Antifa a lot of coverage.

Just because I despise the left doesn't inherently mean I love the right. However, I do see the right focusing on issues I care more about while the left focuses on things I disagree with.

I meant generally long waits. You live in Australia, that's considered a more efficient country but also has private options. Democrats want to jump into public entirely because all the resources should be for the public ofcourse.

In the US you actually qualify for free healthcare if you make less than $1200 a month I think, I'm not sure if that varies around the country. The people that actually struggle to pay for healthcare aren't poor enough to get it free and don't have great options at their employer. So the system is kinda broken for those in the middle. So we actually have a mixed system in the US and it could probably be fixed with better spending. Also, the people getting it for free should be expected to pay in more.
