Researchers found low concentrations of so-called forever chemicals in various “eco-friendly” straws, raising doubts about whether they’re an appropriate alternative.

I’ve offered rankings based on metrics, you’ve just offered your opinion, but somehow you think others are arguing based on feelings. People trying to move to the US just means places that are worse exist. No one is arguing against this. What part of government-provided health care is capitalism?
Capitalism is an economic system and not a political system. The hospitals were built with capital from investors.
The government is paying a rate to the hospitals. There is nothing in our political system that prevents that.
Economics and politics are tightly intertwined. Economics is essentially how resources are distributed.

Okay, so by your definition, government-provided healthcare is not “people take money and start businesses” thus the quality of life increases are not attributable to capitalism.
The hospitals are funded by capital. The tax money is an outcome of capitalism. The government paying for your health insurance is just a government function.
Now I have employer-provided insurance as many Americans do. I fully support a tax paid health care single payer system. I think it makes economic sense. That doesn’t make it socialism. Just like the roads are not socialism, the water supply, etc. It is just what was voted on to do with our money.
I do qualify for VA care but I don’t use it since I have private medical insurance. I live fairly close to a VA center but I have never seen the need to use it.
You’re giving too broad a definition to capitalism. I’m curious to know what you consider communism.
Communism is the collective ownership of property and is both an economic and political system in practice.
I am not giving a broad definition of capitalism. That is the definition of capitalism. It is the private ownership of property and people putting in capital to form a business.
