There are few things that give me more terror than our corrupt and inept government taking over the healthcare of 325M mostly unhealthy Americans.

I’d downvote again, but the Admins have banned the alter I never made.

America had the greatest system in recorded human history..... and then the govt got ahold of it bc if you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor, and if you like your plan, you can keep your plan. And everyone paying for the system had their rates quadrupled to accommodate everyone else. Great system gladly pay more troll cuck

Spend one month with the VA as your healthcare provider. You'll never utter a single word about government-run socialized medicine ever again.


Tricare is the VA, right? I know a lot of folks on Tricare that seem to love it, and they have all the usual illnesses and incidents you'd expect a family to have. When does it start getting bad?

Work = get healthcare

Don't work = don't get healthcare

Not hard.

That's one thing I won't mind paying damnit. The American health care system is mediocre and it goes before Obamacare. I'm an Independent, I am not really a fan of big government, but healthcare is just too complex. I think it has something to do with the health lifestyle.


I understand, and somewhat share your frustration. Our private health care system is beyond broken, our insurance/payment system is a scam, etc.

But... the VA system is even worse than our private health care system.

I just have zero faith in our federal government making it better. Even if we redirected all our health spending - insurance, cash payments, co-pays, etc - to the government, I have 0.0 percent faith they can do a better job, and 0.0 percent faith they can do the same job. It will be worse.

Nah, Obamacare proved to me we want to never go there. It will be like the VA for all. Privatize it all, don’t look back. People want free shite, I get it, but it will only F’ up everything more than it already is, and you don’t need more proof than Obamacare....

Super. I estimate we’ll need around $1k/mo per covered life. So just $24k a year for you and your boyfriend.

No. Tricare is an insurance plan for current military members and some retirees (and their dependents). The VA is a hospital system.

Most people I know who have Tricare, use the private hospital system.

So you will gladly pay more taxes so we can all get the VA system? Because that’s what we’ll get.

Good lord you are stupid.

You realize the United States pays more for healthcare than any other nation in the world, right?
