Broken record but...
Leave the government out of healthcare. The shambling wretch that it is.
The false dichotomy tards think I am a liberal groomer Bidenista because of my utter hatred of a man who steals from cancer kids.
Yet here are my thoughts on health care in America:
Health care costs have been skyrocketing for at least half a century. The Democrat answer to this problem was, is, and always will be what was originally called "socialized medicine" and is now known as Universal Health Care. The stigma of "socialized" has been removed by the ad men.
Ted Kennedy was not the first advocate, but he was the biggest.
What I am saying is that for basically forever, the Democrats have been telegraphing exactly what their goal is. They did not make it a secret. They shouted it from the mountain. But for most of that time, they were screaming into the void.
But over all that time, the Democrats have succeeded in incrementally achieving the goal. George W. Bush even chipped in by creating a whole new government health care program to pander votes, and it has added more to the debt than Obamacare. Most right wingers are completely ignorance of this. Hell, Bush didn't even bother to try to offset the cost! At least Obama made an attempt to do so with the ACA.
Speaking of the ACA, which was a Great Leap Forward for socialized medicine, the Republicans immediately promised to repeal and replace Obamacare if they were given the power. This was the greatest political hoax of the modern era.
While they were out of power, the GOP passed, what, over 60 repeals knowing Obama would veto every one of those bills. But boy it was great theater for the rubes, wasn't it? They just kept voting for those hucksters until finally that glorious day arrived when the Republicans were given the House, the Senate, and the White House.
Then, suddenly, the GOP repeal and replacement program went dark. If that was not solid proof it had all been a hoax, then nothing is.
And yet the rubes didn't catch on! Unbelievable! They STILL have not caught on!
A "skinny repeal" was passed in the House on Trump's watch, and he did that repeat-a-lie-three-times thing he does. On the White House lawn, Trump held a party and prematurely ejaculated, stating, "
“Make no mistake, (one!) “this is a repeal and a replace of Obamacare,
make no mistake (two!) about it.
Make no mistake.”(three!)

But it wasn't even close to a full repeal, and it certainly was not a replacement.
Hoax.
And who did the rubes get mad at?
John McCain.
You can't make this shit up.
As a result of all this hucksterism by Trump and the Republicans, Obamacare is now immortal. A third rail like Social Security and Medicare. Thanks, Drumpf!
The Democrats have moved the ball MUCH closer to the goal. UHC is now inevitable.
That's because the Republicans have never had a plan to get health care costs under control. They are too intellectually bankrupt, and so they have silently assented to UHC. They sold us all down the river to UHC decades ago.
Decades ago.
So what is G5000's plan for better health care?
Go ahead and call me a commie Democrat Biden-loving groomer homo, but
I believe we have to get the government the **** out of health care entirely.
With the exception of Medicare.
Ladies and gentlemen, the government is the biggest player in the healthcare market, and
they get to write the rules for their private sector competitors! Does it get more ******* commie than that!?!?
You know how you can pick up your phone and dial ANY car insurance company in America and personally negotiate for the car insurance which best suits your needs?
You know how you can pick up your phone and dial ANY life insurance company in America and personally negotiate for the life insurance which best suits your needs?
Avoid whole life insurance. Those are a scam. Go with term life insurance. And tell your beneficiaries to punch any insurance person who tries to tell them to accept your life insurance in annuities right in their fat gob. That's another scam. Tell your survivors to take the lump sum. My dad was an underwriter for 30 years, this is him talking.
But I digress.
You know how you can pick up your phone and dial ANY home insurance company in America and personally negotiate for the home insurance which best suits your needs?
I'm not one for conspiracy theories as you all well know. But the fact you CANNOT pick up your phone and call ANY health insurance company in America and personally negotiate for the health insurance which best suits your needs IS a vast
bipartisan conspiracy.
You are deliberately being held hostage to your employer insurance. How's that been working for you?
You know how I feel about exemptions, deductions, and credits. Well, the tax deduction corporations get for employer-sponsored health insurance is bending the cost of healthcare UP.
Obama worked very hard to keep that alive. It was a big boon he gave to labor unions.
So that's my solution to healthcare. Get government the **** out, and let Americans be able to call any health insurance company in America and negotiate for the best insurance which fits their needs.
The best part is that if you bundle all your insurance together with one insurance company, you get big discounts.
No, actually the best part is that you would be able to take your health insurance with you wherever you go. You would no longer be hostage to your employer. You know when you get a new job and you have to wait several months before they let you into their health plan and you pray to god you don't need medical care in the meantime?
That bullshit is gone.
FREEDOM, BABY!
