progressive solutions tend to be rash and when they dont go exactly according to plan they overreact and make the situation even worse by compensating to far for a hole in the boat by taking chunks off the side of the boat to plug it
one upon a time, you'd just pay the doctor when you visited them, or the hospital when you visited them. not a monthly fee AND every time you visit
I'm interested to see how much people spend on insurance on average, vs how much it would have cost them to just pay the doctors and hospitals. And see what the difference is. And see if it would have been better for them to take out medical loans, vs paying this stupid monthly fee.
health insurence is very useful to the lower classes because they cannot compete with those who can take the random chance of life throwing a 10000$+ medical bill at them
Well I can state how it works here, since it isn't that bad here
There's a public healthcare system
But there's also private hospitals
like, i'm wondering if paying off a loan+interest over time would still be cheaper than paying a monthly fee
If you want cheap healthcare and are poor, go public
If you have the money, go private
where is "here", exactly?
it might be but the idea is to pay more over 40 years of your working life rather than pay less over 5-10 years
India
You have health insurance options, but it isn't necessary
And for people who are BPL, the costs are lower in public hospitals
BPL means Below Poverty Line.
i think the middle class tends to have the most problems with 2 system healthcare due to the public healthcare being able to become more relaxed in what it provides due to the people who pay into it also being very financaly strained while the private systems dont really need to be as competitive because the group they compete over eachother with have far more than what they would if everyone in the country only had private options
This is a confused chaotic quasi socialist country, I don't know what this system is called
i would agree, Arch.
the middle class always gets screwed
to quote George Carlin: "The upper class doesn't none of the work, takes all the of money. The middle class does all the work, pays all the taxes, and the lower class.... is just there to scare the shit out of the middle class"
yeah thats not true but i do agree in this case the middle class is not appreciated well
what we really need is a government that decides what we can do and when, what we can say and why. We need a powerful central authority to control the economy and security and we should strive to spread out way of life all over the world. Slowly but surely we will create a powerful union of nations under the leadership of military rule. Communism of course, or wait was that called fascism I get confused sometimes because they function so similarly
its not entirely true, no. but its also a joke
Lol that's very accurate
Well Tim....communism isn't meant to be fascism. That argument doesn't really work against communists
no no no, its called "Not Real Communism/Socialism"
oh its not against communists its a joke
NRC/ NRS
Oh okie, sorry!
@Deleted User what happens if a person in the lowest caste becomes rich off the internet?
they get called a Nigerian Prince?
communism usually goes through and kills everyone who owns a bussiness, fascists usually give you the choice to join or die
He is only concerned with the problems with the lowest class?
Or she
no I mean just in general
Hmm
can a super poor person move up?
he'll be spat upon by everyone else,
The rich wont accept him cuz he was pleb-born
the poor hate him for his success
Well... I'd say yes, but it's possible I'm wrong
