Hospitals still persecute poor folk over hospital debt through the pandemic.

Some Hospitals Kept Suing Patients Over Medical Debt Through the Pandemic

Court actions by hospitals to collect patient debt dropped sharply during the pandemic. But a new study says some of the nation’s largest hospital systems kept filing lawsuits, liens and garnishments — and most were nonprofit.

www.propublica.org

Its good to note that some sectors managed "business as usual" during the pandemic. 39000 cases were actively pursued through the courts in this time. By a quick calculation that would be 39000 more cases than were pursued in the UK where not one citizen owes the NHS a penny.

We must be crazy living in such slavery.

All accomplished through unequal protection of our own laws. And, the right-wing has no problem with it.

I thought obamacare took care of this problem.

So they should not charge people for services?

Have you ever run a business Tammy?

Treating health care like a scam GOP business operation is how we got the most expensive and worst health care by far In the modern world.

That's why people come here from around the world to get treated.

maybe you don’t know what slavery is...

people get a service they should pay for it. If not that’s slavery

the NHS is paid for... try not paying the Queen her taxes and see what happens to ya...London Tower

We are 30 trillion in debt. When are you going to start paying for that?

Democrats all agree regular people have paid too much in taxes already and any tax hikes must be for the incredibly bloated rich and giant corporations. End of story

Do dyou pay your bills Tammy?

Raise the minimum wage until even the Poor pay their share of the tax burden.

No.


Let the market determine the price / cost of labor.


Ever hear of incentives?

The market will be arbitraging the rest of it. Externalities are simply that under Capitalism.

Move to a socialist country cupcake.

Venezuela is right up your ally darling.

Nobody takes right wingers seriously about economics. Government is socialism.

Then why doesn't your beloved nanny state government run everything from the private sector?

Because we have Commerce Clause in particular?

Because the socialist government messes up everything it touches due to lack of market discipline: taxes code, Medicare, deficit, debt, social security, turnpikes, and etcetera.

Only because the GOP refuses to tax the bloated mega rich and giant corporations their fair share... And continue with the stupidest policies and corrupt bubbles every time they get in. See 1929 1989 2008. Trump was also going to give us another one if he had the time. He had to take solace in wrecking the world economy with stupid covid policies.... Leading the dumbass right wing problem with the covid hoax and masks etc becoming political. Absolute idiocy as always.

That won't work because we'll just raise the poverty level along with the MW and keep those on it from owing taxes, just like we do now. What politician out there wants to be the guy that forced the poor to pay taxes? Here's reality, those who make MW will always be considered poor no matter what the wage is because it represents the least amount you can legally earn, other than zero. Your fantasy is just that, fantasy.

Funny how every other developed country can afford all this stuff and that does not happen DUH... And we are the richest country of all. Thanks GOP and brainwashed functional morons....

Obama career is a basic framework and passed by the skin of its teeth. It needs to be worked on forever just like every other health system. It was the biggest social reform for the poor and poor workers since the 1960s. Now it needs more competition and transparency to bring down cost s... 75% of those on the exchanges pay less than $100 a month. And all kinds of other statistics you know nothing about, brainwashed functional moron. Like the annual cap on patient spending, all the free tests you can get. And everything you do know is wrong. Change the goddamn channel and read something not from Rupert scumbag international pariah Murdock....

I've long advocated raising taxes to pay for it. You?

Slash spending.


You want to tax our way to prosperity?


I WUV cash deals....

Slashing spending doesn't address the debt. A debt that grew by $8 trillion even under Trump.

So yeah, you want to demonize others for not paying what they owe but you have no desire to do the same.

sure it does ...if you are spending less you are adding les to the debt

cut taxes, kill new taxes, start getting the economy booming and people working so you have a larger tax base instead of trying to collect from a small percentage of the country

Since american nurses can make as much as British surgeons, it is more like you are crazy to live as indentured servants, but whatever.

 

[Mr Natural]

Health care should not be "for profit".

That would be the case if we were more evolved as a species.

But we’re not.

Adding less does nothing to address the current debt. So I guess as long as someone doesn't have to go back to the hospital they can just forget about their old bill.

Trump cut taxes. If that was the answer we wouldn't have increased the debt by 8 trillion under him.

geez this is not rocket science
