As a citizen in the USA, I feel like late stage capitalism is really killing us via monopolies but that small-medium sized businesses still bring hope and continue to inspire. I also appreciate that if I don’t like where I live I can try any of the other 49 states without needing to establish myself as a citizen, save for my drivers license to operate a vehicle. The cultures are vastly different depending on where you live. I’ve lived in both progressive and conservative parts of the country.
I’m paying attention more lately to what benefits state-level legislation offers. Some states offer free tuition if you graduate from high school there which is amazing.
It is worth noting that before Canada had a national universal healthcare system, a few provinces had one. There was an attempt to establish one in Vermont.
