The health system is bullshite for 60 reasons or more on the payment/business side.
The amount of cost-shifting, fraud, and waste on the payment side is where most of the problems are. Luckily government is good at solving those problems. Let’s put them in charge!

If the doctor runs his own surgical center, he may can do this, but the problem comes when that Dr is an employee of a large system, which most are now. The facility fees are the biggest cost, and the Doctor has little influence on billing anymore, as they are employees…

Imagine these "Free gubment health care" hipsters wanting to reduce their own health care experience to something similar to a cross country Spirt Airlines flight.
You won’t find any private single hospital room anywhere else in the world like we have here. European hospitals look like ours did… in the 50’s.

Cause they spent way too long absorbing propaganda. So instead you get shite like Trump and the Republicans. That rail against Obamacare for 8 years. Promise they have a better way, then get into a super majority and turns out, they have nothing and pass nothing and things just keep deteriorating.

Pay for your own health insurance loser.

It is my understanding that cadillac plans cover everything (in other words he would have paid nothing now, all paid for).


Your understanding is wrong. The Cadillac didn’t mean you pay nothing. It meant they covered everything, even coverage you didn’t want. For example….before ovomitcare, only women capable for pregnancy was charged for that insurance, now all women are charged for it including your 70 year old grandma who has no ability to get pregnant

operating under the belief that no other country has quality healthcare. Respectfully, visit Europe sometime… go to France for example . Check out their healthcare and then come back and let me know you have the same opinion.



You must not keep up too much. You havnt heard how long it takes to get an ambulance in London lately? Maybe an elective knee surgery? Maybe something you thought was minor by the time they can see you in say 8 months maybe it’s killing you.

Remember to direct your anger toward John McCain who put his personal feelings toward Trump before his Country.

The idea is so that everyone is poor and on welfare of course. Taxes are mostly unnecessary and punitive in modern monetary theory.

An average family of four is now saving $2500 a year because of Obamacare. I’d say it’s well worth it.

Was gonna say this. When gov runs health care you reduce competition. Therefore no reason to innovate.

There is a reason anyone in the world with a terminal disease come to the US for treatment.

I believe children under 18 should be covered under some sort of tax funded healthcare but after that you are on your own. This at least covers those people unable to fend for themselves.

Look at the numbers:

Dr visit $65 -- Medical care
Specialist $65 -- Medical care
Surgery Dr Fee $165 -- Medical care
Facility Fee $3,996.00 -- MBA Return for investors and executives


It isn't the medical care part of the system that's screwing everybody over.

I've never understood the concept of why an employer should pay any of anyone's health care.

It should be simple, you pay yours and I'll pay mine.

Simple doesn't work in the mind of government.
