The "thieves" you speak of are vastly outnumbered. This sounds like the others are inherently lacking in competence and civility if they have fallen that far behind. We call that a you problem, you fix it.

Truth be told, this is like whining because you have a small penis.

Free healthcare for all would cost billions less than private insurance


Explain the bold portion. Explain how an entire health insurance system exists free of cost.

Why don't you go and ask Obama and Trump why only a few politicians have tried to make this happen.


Universal Healthcare? Because it's a horrible fricking idea.

Or, insurance is not a right. You keep switching out the word "healthcare" when what you mean is "insurance". If you want free insurance, then you must assume the provider of the healthcare that accepts the insurance must also work for free. Maybe you should explain to us why you believe doctors should become indentured servants or slaves, first.

The only factors Obamacare lets the insurer consider are age and whether you’re a smoker. Sorry - If you’re a 61 yo female you don’t need a maternity policy. But you do have to have a colonoscopy. The risk of that is factored into the rate, which is higher than that of a woman in her childbearing years. Why can’t her risk of needing a hospital delivery be considered as well?


Tell us you don't understand how insurance works without understanding how insurance works. There are millions of people insured through the exchange. Your suggestion is that these policies get priced on an individual basis rather than on a pool basis...you know, like EVERY other insurance policy out there?

It's also cute that you think the costs of maternity are costlier than the care as people get older. What do you think is going to happen when you turn 65? You aren't getting a menu to select things you may actually get or need coverage for.

Are you also advocating for homeowners insurance companies to price your policy based on the number of trees next to your house, or the quality of wood in your roof joists?

It's not feasible, and what you are suggesting would drive up costs from an administrative perspective.

lying to say that illegal immigrants are getting billions in Medicare when they are not eligible and never have been in the history of America?


They are receiving billions of dollars in federal money from CMS (Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services)

You know which Trump Loyalist was trying to bring the country back together without violence? Charlie Kirk, and the DEMs killed him. They tried to kill Trump also. They will try to kill anyone that disagrees with them and becomes popular. What's the point of trying to make peace with DEMs? They are a violent and criminal lunatic cult...

The current system costs the government 4.8 trillion yearly,


What system? Medicaid/medicare? Or the entire health industry as a whole?

quote:

medical care for all would cost around 2.4-3 trillion yearly.


Wait, you just called it "free healthcare". How does something free COST 3 trillion/year?

Also, medicare for all is predicted to initially cost $46 TRILLION over the next 10 years.

quote:

Once again, only an idiot or a bigot would think that this is a bad thing.


Or, anyone not a socialist. But yeah, it's only about race...goober.

You are happy that other people don't have access to it, so you don't give a single frick about saving the government money.


I'm a taxpayer, sir. I'm the first one the government comes to, to fund things like "medicare for all". Which is unsustainable, financially.

Not to mention the numerous problems with "medicare for all" such as:

1) Exorbitant wait times under single payer system. See every single country that has this system for examples.
2) Government decides your doctors. No longer get to choose what doctor i want to see. When it's a government cost, government tells you who you will see. See any government program for examples.
3) Healthcare industry will be comprised of half retarded government workers. See any government program and the VA for examples.
4) The amount of bureacracy that will be created to "manage this" will quadrupel the cost after 5 years. Again, see the VA and every single US government program.

Explain to us, how medicare run by this government will somehow be run better than any other government run program. You can't.

I think what "onepiecemayne" is meaning to say, is that Trump was dividing the people in the country that wanted to kill him and conservatives. How can these peaceful liberals formulate a plan to murder Trump and Conservatives when people like Trump keep getting in the way of that happening? Silly goose.

I'm 64, bride is 61 and why do we need to pay for maternity, pregnancy, newborn care, and child care?

Think of it like a satellite TV package plan. You have your basic plan, top 120, top 200, and your add ons like eye, life, and dental.

There are speciality plans or supplemental policies available, but they can be expensive and by the time you pay for all the add-ons it cost more than a premium healthcare plan.

During Trumps first term he promised a a new health care policy and said he would have it out in 2 weeks.

He extended to roll out of his plan by two weeks everyone his self declared deadline passed until people just gave up and stopped asking about it

You and you wife are in the most expensive demographic for health care costs. That young pregnant chick is less expensive than you. She is subsiding your health care. Perhaps you should just take her money and not bitch about it.


You sir are full of shite, I have insurance through a private provider and GUARANTEE I pay my fair share and probably part of yours. I graduated college with no loans by working nights and a good work ethic is something most of the younger folks know nothing about.
