That's greed and corruption working exactly as designed.

That's Big Insurance kicking back lots of money to politicians and political parties to ensure they can charge outrageous prices for essentially providing the unnecessary service of taking a piece of paper from your doctor then handing it to the government and billing the government whatever the fuck they want.

I'm not sure about Medicaid but Medicare isn't a government program anymore, not really. People have to have MedicarePlus and MedicarePartB and all this happy horseshit that's run by Humana or some other parasitic for-profit insurance company.

THAT'S why the shit's expensive. The insurance companies bribe politicians to let them overcharge the hell out of everything and since the government prints its own money who fucking cares, eh?

100% a capitalism just doing what capitalism does thing.
Singapore has mix of public and private health care. It is mostly private companies delivering health care. It's sooooooo much better than Canada's government only no private competition universal health care. And guess what, it costs less and has better results. Singaporeans live longer than Americans and Canadians.

The US is the worst example of for profit health care. Canada is the worst example of government run universal health care. Watch what North America does, and don't do it.

I'm sure they do lol.

I miss a handful of folks too.

It's been so weird lately for me, internet wise. Posting so lil on the forums, viewing so lil as far as polly tics as well. And now Virginia has mandated that porn sites have to enforce Age Verification, and Im not going through that, where you pretty much have to let them see your ID, and/or do a biometric face scan, fuck that.

Maybe just stay clear of porn sites. You are never going to fuck any of them.

Quote from: Biggie Smiles on June 24, 2024, 02:18:27 PMremember when peepoll who couldn't afford health care insurance were fined by the IRS at approximately 80% of the purchase price  of the shitty health insurances providers on that stupid exchange which never worked?

So essentially you either found a way to pay for shitty health care which you couldn't afford OR you had the very benevolent courtesy of paying 80% of that cost to Uncle Sam for absolutely NOTHING instead

wasn't that awesome?

Unbelievable racket.

Australia to has a mix of private and public healthcare but every tax payers has to pay for Medicare.

This is standard democrat scum operating procedure. Tout a costly bill which has 5% to do with what the bill claims it's for and 95% for personal pet projects. It's called "pork" -- and democrat scum are masters at using the process to their own advantage.

why? Because they know their idiotic fuckwits like Admong and Pig will not even attempt to read the actual text.

 pulling dirty tricks like this serve to not only get whatever ridiculous project they want to engage in funded, but also helps them bad mouth their opponents in front of the masses of lemmings for voting against it.

So yeah, Health Care for All. And those evil republicans are not for it!

no, evil republicans are not for charging someone a 8,000.00 a year tax penalty for the crime of not being able to afford the 10,000.00 a year shitty coverage plan that didn't cover jack shit anyway.

but see, you'd have to actually read the text in the bill to understand all of that.

Quote from: Biggie Smiles on June 24, 2024, 08:50:21 PMNow you're a drunk? I thought it was heroin addict?

Cant keep up with all of the escape hatches they require to rescue them from the embarrassment of very concise and salient points being shuttled their way

She's calling you a drunk when she herself is an alcoholic and all whaled up with the big Biggest (both literally and figuratively) Vodka Vixen these boards have ever known?

that's rich.

 Well I have been known to knock back a few.

 But not in the middle of the damn day lol

 Me and the man have a schedule with alcohol. We have been drinking buddies for decades.

 So now that we are all old and shit and living as a married couple....we simply schedule our substance abuse and prepare for it

 Today we go to his doctor app at 3....run to the bank so he can do his business, and then we will come home and make Pina coladas with the fancy rum he ordered last week.

 Normally we are bourbon drinkers and I'm so shamefully that I WILL pour a beer into my bourbon while he looks at me like I'm either the most brilliant woman he knows...or the most terrifying.

 Either way, I'll probably be shit faced later. I likely will NOT be posting because I'll be with him and this is our date night lol

 No heroin will be used.  ♡
My happiness is all of your misery. I put good dick all in my kidneys.

so having a few drinks every now and then precludes you from having a valid opinion on anything?

DId anyone send this memos to the whining whales?

Single payer health care would never work in the US. It would push the country to bankruptcy faster than it already is.
