Pity you don't know the meaning of your spew.

If you are going to vote Republican next year, then you are choosing Obamacare. Because let's face it, Trump and the Republicans have no health care reform plan and so we will be stuck with some form of Obamacare if they win.

I know how a lot of people around here hate facts (which like trained seals they reflexively call "fake news"), but I can't help myself. So now, some figures.

U.S. Health Care Costs Skyrocketed to $3.65 Trillion in 2018

Health Insurance Costs Surpass $20,000 Per Year, Hitting a Record

Thanks, Trump!

We spent $3.65 Trillion on health care last year. That's your insurance premiums and co-pays, plus your employer's share of premiums, plus the government's outlays for Medicaid, Medicare, etc.

$3.65 trillion. That would be $36.5 trillion over ten years...except it will actually be much more than that since health care costs have been skyrocketing for many decades, long before Obamacare.

So here's another number: CMS Estimates Annual U.S. Health Care Spending to Hit $5.96 Trillion by 2027


In short, we literally cannot afford the Republican "do nothing" health care plan.


This is what makes UHC inevitable.

If we want to declare ourselves as the greatest country on the planet, we should probably act like it.

That begins with taking care of our own.

And giving government another lever to control the "undesirable"

"Hey Mr Conservative, don't like government healthcare? 5 month wait for you"

Cool story.

My waits are 6 months now!

Republican Plan: Nothing. Continue forever with skyrocketing costs.

Democratic Plan: Universal health care.

Gee, I wonder which plan will win out in the long run!

Yes, because healthcare run like the DMV will make the people happy.

Then you will bitch about lower doctor quality and longer waits.

Where DO you live?
Alabama?
Our DMV is fantastic, cheap, no waiting

Other - Compassion

Control masquerading as compassion.

Are you telling me what I think? Sorry, this progressive has no interest in controlling anyone. Neither do I want any American to suffer from lack of basic health care.

Ban Foie gras
ban plastic bags
ban straws

Plenty of progressives love telling other people what to do.

When government gets control of healthcare, in a country this complex, it will HAVE to start telling people what to do, or else stop paying doctors lots of $$.

Sorry but plenty of conservatives love telling other people what to do too. I'd guess the list is pretty even.

Right now it is profit-driven corporations, at the mercy of their shareholders, that are telling us who lives and who dies and how much we pay doctors, hospitals, etc. I'd prefer a more patient-centric and less a profit-centric approach.

Ok, then lets go with a public option plan that gives people choice between public and private.

You left out the most important one...

When you control healthcare, you can control the population....they will be able to make people obey them when they threaten to keep healthcare away from "conservatives," people who don't obey the global warming cult, and those who oppose their policies.

Global warming Star Wars PHD.
After all, what does NASA know?
I thought the con has a cult.
Old white farts sucking off their socialist SS Medicare VA??
You??

TrumpTards like pictures. So here, in two pictures, is why the left bleevs we need UHC:

You can always start your own Charity, house Illegals in your own home and pay for their healthcare with your own money.

Sucks to live in a democracy where not everyone feels as you do?

Charity begins in a Dem Tard's eyes when they give up their ass to hairy man butt love.
Virginia is home to many Hairy Man Butt Loving Mentally Ill Virginians.
This is why they want Free Healthcare for Illegals that they pay to have hairy man butt love with, or to do their gardening and laundry for them.

Virginia is for Hairy Man Butt Lovers, and Brown Skinned, Illegal Slaves for Virginians.
Slavery never ended for Virginians, they just dressed it up in a Sombrero.

I believe you are the one fixated on illegals and 'hairy man butt love'. Not getting enough of either in Ohio?

At any rate, it is apparent why you confuse compassion (which you may not understand) and control (which you obviously do understand).

Fuck Compassion. That's just a buzz word and talking point for you Communist Bastards. You don't spend one dime of your pay, nor one minute of your time helping people in your own community.

Set up a Sanctuary City in your own home if it's that important to you.

Wow. Government doesn't already largely control healthcare? Government pays doctors? Who knew?

Go Blow an Illegal Alien in a Back Ally if you want to devote your time to charity because you sure as Hell haven't given any of your time or money to Illegal Aliens, nor opened your home up to them. You want someone else to do it, and someone else to foot the bill for you.

Don't you have some Putin Pudding to server for your Dead Daddy Al Baghdadi or The Ayatollah's Assahollah to lick?

Go do that....you are much better at it than being a Lying Filthy Troll.

The UK's system is groaning under the strain of wait times and underpaid doctors.
