I don't think we're addressing the same concerns

2019-09-16 18:59:51 UTC  

No but we haven't had real discussions about quality and it's the otherside of the coin in regards to health insurance.

2019-09-16 19:02:18 UTC  

I doubt anyone's expecting god damn star trek med bay accomodations. People just want to be able to go to the god damn doctor without risking financial ruin. And no, simply sitting there and saying "thats never happened to me" is not an acceptable response.

2019-09-16 19:03:11 UTC  

I've never had a tree fall on my house, I still see the merit of having insurance for it.

2019-09-16 19:59:56 UTC  

I moved to concierge recently. Here's what I expect A doctor whenever I need a doctor. A procedure whenever I need one. If I change my diet/ exercise routine I want new blood work. I do not want to wait on anything health related. Not having this is a worst case scenario.

2019-09-16 20:30:20 UTC  

Outside moral outrage there is no actual defense of medicare for all.

2019-09-16 20:32:53 UTC  

America isnt Europe, our culture is different our population is titanic comparatively speaking, and the US subsidizes Europes defense. Without us their socialized medicine fails.

2019-09-16 20:33:29 UTC  

Futhermore I am against forced abortions and state sanctioned murder of children.

2019-09-16 20:34:32 UTC  

The state can keep its filthy hands off my healthcare thank you

2019-09-16 20:38:19 UTC  

Joker you need to stop strawmanning, no one said that every one having ins is the worst case scenario. What was said was, medicare is actually awful not only in wait times but also in its reimbursement rates to hospitals. This is not even to mention the feds can legally negotiate or control prices, do you really want to write a blank check to the pharma companies?

2019-09-16 20:41:43 UTC  

>forced abortions
and just like that you're in no position to cry "strawman"

2019-09-16 20:41:54 UTC  

literally fucking made up

2019-09-16 20:42:51 UTC  

and yes, he clarified his statement already

2019-09-16 20:43:47 UTC  

An appeal court in britain literally had to stop a forced abortion my dude get fucked

2019-09-16 20:44:11 UTC  

>britain
okie dokie, good for them, take it to UK pol

2019-09-16 20:45:07 UTC  

also have fun connecting that to the occurance of central health insurance option

2019-09-16 20:45:16 UTC  

emphasis on "option"

2019-09-16 20:46:24 UTC  

"if we let people choose to have the state insure, something something forced abortions."

go ahead and call it a strawman, but thats how fantastically non-sequitor that comment was

2019-09-16 20:46:27 UTC  

Half of what you have been arguing is that western countries all have socialized meducine but us, then got pissy when someone called it barbaric

2019-09-16 20:47:18 UTC  

So when I provide an example of barbarity in one of those western countries you plug your ears and say "not relevant"

2019-09-16 20:47:23 UTC  

Weak sauce man

2019-09-16 20:47:28 UTC  

untrue, I made no reference to other countries. I refuted the claim that they were "primitive" for doing so, but thats it

2019-09-16 20:48:31 UTC  

and no, you have yet to justify bringing up an occurance of a forced abortion and proving its a result of central health insurance

2019-09-16 20:49:03 UTC  

It seems I got that part mixed up with someone else I apologize

2019-09-16 20:49:10 UTC  

Really tho?

2019-09-16 20:49:14 UTC  

"Outside moral outrage there is no actual defense of medicare for all."
It's cheaper for the average consumer. It also standardizes a level of care across the board.

2019-09-16 20:49:26 UTC  

yes, really

2019-09-16 20:49:49 UTC  

"Medicare for all" also includes regulation of big pharma

2019-09-16 20:50:03 UTC  

Though, that can be done without "Medicare for all"

2019-09-16 20:50:04 UTC  

The government forcing someone to have an abortion in a government run healthcare system isnt a result of that government run system?

2019-09-16 20:51:25 UTC  

Doesntmakesensetomebutokaybro

2019-09-16 20:51:51 UTC  

Weez by what metric are you determining it is cheaper?

2019-09-16 20:52:08 UTC  

what part of "option" is not getting through to you?

2019-09-16 20:52:12 UTC  

Fiscal cost per capita.

2019-09-16 20:52:45 UTC  

In your current system, larger groups get cheaper rates for insurance.

2019-09-16 20:52:53 UTC  

A country is THE largest group.

2019-09-16 20:53:29 UTC  

How do you square that with the previously mentioned cdc report?

2019-09-16 20:53:36 UTC  

Got a link for that?

2019-09-16 20:53:40 UTC  

5 trillion doesnt sound cheap to me

2019-09-16 20:53:40 UTC  

I'll have a read through it

2019-09-16 20:54:22 UTC  

Here's something for you to have a look at, while I read that report
