that's why socialist health care would be a disaster... having to pay for medical care is the reason not to send yourself to the ER over a dare

though you never get denied care, no matter how deep in the hole you are. maybe that's not the best policy. maybe there should be a medical debt limit

There's a huge difference between health care and insurance, which people dont understand

People think an obese 30 year old should get a kidney transplant, when in reality its BS because their condition is LIFESTYLE related lol

the government should keep their grubby little mits of just about everything. There are no advantages to having a socialized medical system

Its not like being born with a fucking defective heart valve or something

We should have it be like dental: reward good health and preventative care, by people taking good care of themselves

I dont feel bad for the person who swallows mcdonalds 5 times a day, I just dont

@KenneticEnergy but I heard a feminist tell me that being fat was in her genetics, are you calling her a lier?

worse than no advantages, it has an extreme disadvantage: it breaks down the connection between good choices, good genes, etc., and good outcomes. betters have to pay for lessers via taxes, and lessers can get what they can't afford

compounded over generations, socialism is dysgenic

@Phosis T'Kar lmao I've met some of those women. Ive worked in healthcare for too long, im blunt with people now. I'll tell someone "hey, youre not gonna see 40 if you dont do something about that weight"

if she has fat genetics, i'd like to see her stay fat without food

The future for an obese person is eventually being bed-bound, shitting and pissing yourself because you cant move anymore. Its a shitty existence

being blunt in the medical field is good. If I have something wrong with me I want to hear it straight

i saw a news segment on someone like that when i was a kid. he weighed 600 pounds and couldn't fit through his doorways

Haha I never BS people. I mean im not a doc, but there's certain basics like.. if youre eating crap and just sitting around all day... yeah thats gonna grease the skids for diabetes, probably dementia too if theyre not getting enough sleep

Thats my future patient population as a nurse. I guarantee you a lot of the baby boomers will end up becoming obese, bed-bound, and incontinent.

If they aren't already

Its a really shitty way to go, and painful too

I bet millenials will be worse, just look at how many of my generation are overweight right now

Honestly, Id rather commit suicide than live with not being able to go to the bathroom on my own. Fuck wearing diapers and having to be changed.

Or feed myself too

there are other options usually, as long as you don't stuff yourself like a pig you should be good

Like some of my 80 and 90 year olds im like... damn I give ya props, because i would of said "fuck it" and died lol

Mgtow movie night?

@Phosis T'Kar There is some genetic components, its lifestyle mainly

once you hit 90 though it's anyones guess

Plan the movie before

Like my family has heart disease and stuff out the yin yang, so I gotta watch the Hawaiian BBQ and good stuff lol

Just have a 12 gauge retirement plan

But as long as you stay active, exercise, get enough sleep and drink enough water youre doing better than most

well atleast heart disease usually just kills. so small blessings I guess

Those are skinwalkers @ManOWar

@Cat Wizard my aunt is an ER doc, and she had a patient who blew his shoulder off cleaning his shotgun

lol

ouch that must have hurt

Like, fucking oof

I told her its good it wasnt pointed towards his face lmao

How do you miss that shot
