Well I'm in agreement with you from a moral point of view, but you just have to ask yourself what is the breaking point for the average person?

 

How much abuse will people tolerate?

 

Will there be blowback from extreme corporate greed and generational gouging, that we saw during covid. 

 

 I think there will be, and I think the sympathy is going to be minimal. 

 

I don't believe in sympathy at all. Just polite indifference.

My mates Mum, 80s, waited 3 months for gallbladder surgery. I dont see many Brits singing the praises of the NHS, and the dental work isnt an advertisement.

 

That's because it's been underfunded for over a decade, not because there's anything wrong with the principle of universal health care in which all chip in. Socialism indeed. Twaddle!

 

Where I live its universal and working even if it's under strain. I am getting. excellent service, and pay a monthly subscription dependent on my income. 

 

Anyway, any 'socialism' is better than letting young women bleed to death in the car parks of world class hospitals like they do in the 'land of the free and home of the brave'.

 

Such a shame you all shame such a great anthem with your selfishness and hatred.

 

Speaking of which I see your pressy in waiting has announced his intention of destroying the only functioning bit there is in the US.

Unlike the UK socialist health care system where recipients must wait over a year for primary care and end up dying of their illness.

Its better than a pay or die system

Luigi is about to find out what tax payer provided health care  is like in prison. Hope his back will be okay on the thin plastic prison mat he spends the rest of his life sleeping on. I heard of you ask nicely with a doctors approval they may allow you two mats. His family is rich he will figure it out.

Please tell us the incidents of "women bleed(ing) to death in car parks of hospitals".

 

What "bit" is being destroyed by President Elect Trump?

 

What a shame we spent all that money keeping you speaking English instead of German.

What a sad comment, when the Germans, at the time, put 6,000,000+ men, women and children to death.

You are a sad individual...........

OK...so, to divert from the pissing contest:

For all that don't actually know the end details of the current healthcare system in the states, this is how it breaks down (IME)

My mom has healthcare insurance from medicare A&B as well as her private Non-Obamacare healthcare insurance. She pays around $500 USD per month for all.

I moved back here 2 yrs ago to take care of her. My only income upon arrival was my SS so I contacted the healthcare.gov site and was immediately bombarded with insurance companies all vying to "Give" me healthcare insurance, for free. 🤔 Here's a bill:

This was followed by this eye opening letter a few months later:

You can see by the bill that the insurance companies are collecting nearly $2000 "bounty" on every swinging dick they can sign-up, the younger the better but they take all comers w/o an exam, with preexisting conditions, nothing matters as long as they can classify you as "poor" and sign you up.

The part of the letter I found most interesting is the "tax" threat and the follow-up phone call explaning the provided coverage wasn't any better than Medicare Part A anyway. (you automatically get that free when you turn 65 for those unfamiliar with the real peculiarities of being an American. (meaning born here,not just watched it on TEEVEE)

Enjoy

Ok, so what exactly are you trying to tell us?

 

Are you justifying the CEO of being assasinated into the back of his skull?

Sometimes the death of a piece of sh__ doesn't need justification in order for most of us can just bask in the warmth of that wonderful righteous feeling.
