Sorry, I keep forgetting, .. huh.. To you and your ilk, all this would appear just some game, and, haha, your comments serious.. LOL. Tell ya what, from now on please feel free to just ignore all such topics. Enjoy that ignorant bliss while you still can.. It's okay. Us adults will somehow continue to manage..why all the word games?
"Failed by US Healthcare"Seriously though,
Okay then, let's call it a civil rights program implemented in 1965 to protect the elderly as a class from pointless impoverishment and societal abuse. A Medicare for All program would then protect all in general from being further plundered by the billionaires. Of course, as with Social Security and Medicare, the billionaires themselves would be protected, thus leaving nothing for them to cry about. The reason these programs work is because they save "the people" (i.e. the govt) a ton of money in the long run since the billionaires, left to their own devices, always end up stealing significantly from govt revenue.Catagorize it however you like.
Yep, they hold it for ya 'cause they know you'll just gamble it away or blow it all on booz otherwise. HAHAHA!My civil rights depend on the government taking 2.9% of my paycheck? LOL!
Fine. Don't have a cow!but you said "let's call it a civil rights program". I won't be calling it that
Meanwhile, from that FindLaw link you somehow glossed over..
Civil rights are an expansive and significant set of rights that are designed to protect individuals from unfair treatment; they are the rights of individuals to receive equal treatment (and to be free from unfair treatment or discrimination) in a number of settings -- including education, employment, housing, public accommodations, and more -- and based on certain legally-protected characteristics.
That's what they are. Legally. Whatever else you may imagine them to be (or not to be) is no doubt comical, but neither here nor there.

Let's don't. I'm very tired of people like you blithering on about, "I want this, therefore it's a right." It's not.
progressive and conservative health law experts alike say the legal basis for Medicare for All has already been laid by vast government health insurance programs like Medicare itself...
See, I like things to make sense. For example, the phrase "rights to bodily integrity" directly implies rights to sound health.
Not everything. Only the things authorized by the Constitution. See, unlike you, the founders didn't want government running every goddamned thing.

So you'd rather die at 66 of a treatable disease because no one would insure you or hire you at that age?
You lie with gusto yet remain dull. I've made the parallels plain. Next time you feel entitled to piss all over my stuff kindly piss off instead and seek professional help with whatever makes you easily the most miserable person on this board.Could you please actually READ your own quote and then explain to us how that coincides with YOUR statement of why Medicare for All - or Social Security, for that matter - is a "civil right"?
Interpreting "bodily integrity" as "sound health" makes more intuitive sense than its actual definition. That was the point. Duh!"rights to bodily integrity"
Doesn't mean what you think it means - and there is no room for interpretation
Please puff it loud and often. These corporate profit uber alles shits need constant reality reminding.If i may 'puff chest' , i've 3 decades of front line experience.
I've seen a lot of humanity loose it all due to an illness
That's what our system does for people who are otherwise willing and able to work and already have jobs.66.5 percent of all bankruptcies were tied to medical issues —either because of high costs for care or time out of work. An estimated 530,000 families turn to bankruptcy each year because of medical issues and bills, the research found.
The number of debtors who cited medical issues as a contributing reason for their bankruptcy actually increased slightly after the law’s implementation — 67.5 percent in the three years following the law’s adoption versus 65.5 percent prior.
The culprit for the lack of improvement was inadequate health-care insurance, according to a co-author of the research, Dr. David U. Himmelstein, a distinguished professor at Hunter College and founder of advocacy group Physicians for a National Health Program.
“Unless you’re Jeff Bezos, people don’t have very good alternatives, because the insurance that is available and affordable to people, or that most people’s employers provide them, is not adequate protection if you’re sick,” Himmelstein said.
