bullshite. This has absolutely nothing to do with race. It has to do with dumbasses of all stripes that have fricking kids they can’t provide for. Be fricking responsible and don’t make life changing decisions you can’t handle. It’s not that hard.


Umm, you just paraphrased me We're in agreement, Friend.

This is what happens when women are forced to have their unwanted babies.

My youngest brother is mentally challenged and gets social security disability (he is 37 and mentally like 10-12 with a second grade reading level).

Dealing with social security is a nightmare. It took them almost a year to get me fully set up as his representative after my father died.

This didn’t just start when they banned abortion.

Hospital administrators fricked up by using Press-Gainey scores and other subjective measures of satisfaction/healthcare quality (patient/family satisfaction with provider), instead of objective measures (readmission rates, days in hospital, hospital acquired infection rates) to determine the “quality of care” and often times using these subjective metrics to determine bonuses/increased compensation for providers


It is absolutely ridiculous that a patient upset over the brand of juice a hospital gave them can tank the hospital’s score with a bad review.

It costs a lot to run and staff a hospital. How much you think all the technology they have to use costs?


We pay doctors and nurses more than everywhere else in the world.

Should cut your pay to lower the costs.

The reason "regular" healthcare costs so much is because it has to subsidize all the freeloaders.

I don't think freeloaders is why a Tylenol or a band aid costs $35.

frick you. The problem is American healthcare system. A family of four can easily pay over 20 thousand dollars. I guess you rather kids die than get adequate health care even if it’s from the gov

Nobody is advocating for babies to not get medical care. This is a deep rooted problem in our shite culture as Americans. Uneducated people working fast food make babies with other uneducated idiots. Taxpayers pick up the tab and cycle repeats itself

Found out the other day one of my neighbors isn’t married Living together with 2 kids over 15 years Woman & kids on Medicaid & get food stamps He has a good job but I guess they are fine with living off tax payers


Worked with a guy that did this with his old lady she also got rent assistance on top of everything else you listed and he was her “landlord” they were hitting the system for about 90k/year. I’ve seen women that get their kids diagnosed with adhd to get a check and a script of adderall that they sell. Or folks on disability because they’re too fat to work. The result is you lose compassion for people who may actually need help my attitude now is frick em all because you can’t differentiate between those who need and those who are thieves. “It’s a damn shame what the worlds come to”

Medicaid will say "we only pay $35 for Procedure X" and when Procedure X actually costs the provider $55 to provide, the have to make up that money by gouging the "regular" people. It's socialized medicine by proxy.



It is the same racket with insurance. Blue Cross negotiated an artificially inflated 300 dollar visit to 60 dollars which is ironically your copay so your insurance paid 0. But you are out 60 dollars and your monthly premiums.
