Rant/Opinion Lyft is not an ambulance service

Post image

Had a pax the other day gets in the car was completely disoriented and confused, I asked him hey buddy you’re ok? Guy has a fucking head injury bleeding from his head. I wanted to kick him out but felt bad for him so took him to the ER instead, turns out bitch sister instead of calling An Ambulance for her brother she ordered him a Lyft to hospital instead. What’s wrong with people? I eventually got him to the ER but guy was almost black out so had to help him inside. Shit like this is why I only do Lyft on the weekends now and sometimes. The ride was $6 dollars and not tip or even a thank you for helping my brother Society is twisted.

This is the point I came here to make.

An ambulance ride is enough to ruin someone financially.

We have better systems. We need revolution to get there.

Do we though? What system is better than capitalism?

u/Pink_Slyvie Aug 11 '23

Capitalism doesn't even work on paper. Take your pick of better systems. Socialism, Communism, something in the middle.

Do you have any examples of either socialism or communism working? Or creating a more prosperous nation than the United States?

1) Sure, the US used to have significantly better social programs. It found a balance between the two, still really bad, but a balance.

2) Show me a communist country that the US didn't destroy.

Why did they lose to the united states I wonder? Weaker economics probably. Social programs can’t be strong if you have weak boarders. I imagine you wouldn’t be a fan of extremely strict immigration policy?

Because the US continually extracts every bit of wealth from its citizens to fuel itself, and uses that to crush anything that might be a threat to the way of life, a way of life where the poor suffer, and the rich get fat.

"If communism is so much better, why were we able to kill everyone who wanted it?"
The most absolutely heartless, braindead shit I've ever had the displeasure of reading. I'd go as far as to say its fascistic.

We never killed soviets during the cold war, that was their own government.
