Universal healthcare + finite medical resources + 40% obesity rates = Disaster

We have to cut obesity rates and add millions more medical professionals first and foremost.

Before we talk about who and how our finite healthcare resources are controlled by the people who ran the covid shitshow.

Yes the system sucks and it's way over priced. But there are realities that can't be ignored if we don't want to end up with something worse.
When 'they' talk of 'institutional investors' 'they' are talking about insurance companies. Look at Warren Buffet's portfolio and how he invests in them. 'We' just want to use your money for a while'. :tiphat:

I still support universal health care. It's cheaper in the long-run.
We have universal healthcare, it has it's issues but all round, I am fine with it. I'm in my 76th year and the health system has not let me down too much.
They need to cut back on immigration and let people get the service they need when they need it.
Drug coverage is based on income and we pay full price till we reach a deductible then prices decrease until all you pay is the drug store dispensing fee. My Mrs has many prescriptions. It would be incredibly expensive without coverage.

A friend got lasics for 'free'. They even paid for his 'readers'. 77 and 20/20 vision, must be nice

Investors and insurance companies aside there are still finite resources which have to be divvied up by someone.

I'm not in favor of the current system. Like many of us old farts I grew up with affordable house calls by the doctor.


Under universal healthcare Who gets to decide if you get your bypass surgery at John Hopkins or the worse rated hospital in the state?

not only the hoe’s running the health systems, but all the hypochondriacs/obese in this country that work the system to death instead of eating/exercising or just working hard which keeps the human in touch with reality are the ones contributing to as well…
I personally have been fortunate on one hand to get this far without any real problems besides feeling like been in a daily car wreck…which I contribute to my work and play…and feel for those that truly have to fight real problems…
health and happiness are two things $ can’t always buy…

enjoy those tacos my friend… there’s a little Mex in all of us…

That would be ME and my minions. Legalize drugs, ban narcan to start with. Socrates said the best form of government is a benevolent dictatorship and I tend to agree.
Lots of Sharia Law, for the 'deterrent effect'. 1 woman and her kids waving around their nubs, properly publicized, would greatly reduce theft.
Your best bet is the 'million man militia' and the 'National Democratic Socialist' party. They have nice uniforms and the support of the 'wise and ancients of mu-mu' and the 'illuminati'. :ROFLMAO:
