joabbess @joabbess.bsky.social · 08/12/2024We need socialist funding for healthcare. It's Christian. It's Biblical. The governments exist to administer welfare or they fail. A state or nation that doesn't collectively fund healthcare is bound to fall. 100
joabbess @joabbess.bsky.social · 08/12/2024Call it tithing. Call it zakat. Call it charity. Call it whatever you like. I'm sure most people would be happy paying 5% of their income so that everyone, old grannies, young orphans, you, me, we all get the healthcare we need. It's a society we all need. Yes, social co-operation. 100
joabbess @joabbess.bsky.social · 08/12/2024How do so many countries afford to offer everyone healthcare that is free at the point of use ? Everybody pays in a little. Anybody who needs care gets it. Call it socialism. Call it community funding. Call it what you want. It's the model of welfare put in place in the Early Church. 100
joabbess @joabbess.bsky.social · 08/12/2024Involved in family care of elders today. God TV is on. The preacher is praying for healing for people. Suddenly I have insight. Many ordinary Americans are thrown on the mercy of Jesus, because they can't afford healthcare. Let's get back to the communal welfare of the Acts of the Apostles. 110
