I fucking hate American healthcare. I want to fucking kill somebody, how has this gone on for so long

I fucking hate American healthcare. I want to fucking kill somebody, how has this gone on for so long.

Jesus Christ, this country is such a god-damned shit hole. My girlfriend has been dealing with medical issues since last year, and her fucking insurance is a scam or some shit. Nobody takes it, their website list of current providers is bullshit, and the people who do take it are all terrible and live 45 minutes away. And it was the bullshit that was recommended to us within our budget on the exchanges.

I almost want to leave the fucking country on this one issue. I'm wondering if I'd rather deal with the entire set of problems associated with moving to a new country based on the fact that we can't see a fucking doctor here without having to do it out of pocket for hundreds of dollars while being forced to pay for health insurance that doesn't do anything, and not being allowed to change insurers except for in certain windows. Why is this fucking racket allowed to continue, how is there not a mob with pitchforks in the streets?

...

Deregulate the industry and stop wasting tax dollars on medicare/medicade

kill yourself

not an argument

you should kill yourself too

Uh, ackshully, America has the greatest and most efficient healthcare in the world. It's just not for the poors. The system works great and performs its intended function. To argue otherwise is to be Unamerican.

...

Fuck yourself, any tax dollars I save aren't going to save the time and money I've spent dealing with shit heads on the phone who are trying their fucking hardest to not give us a single bit of coverage, give me the run around, send me to doctors offices who were literally SHUT DOWN AS SCAM PILL MILLS.

And these are insurance companies that are supposed to be more legit because of the ACAs requirements than previous insurance companies that would give you plans that explicitly didn't cover anything, or at least so I've heard from people who were adults in the 90s and didn't bother with insurance because it was all either too expensive or a fucking scam.

Now they say they cover you and they actually just obfuscate shit and try to make you become deranged from rage and exhaustion so that you don't even use your fucking insurance while you're forced to pay them. I can see how people probably think nothing of it if they're healthy and not buying insurance, but once you actually have to go to doctors this entire system is a fucking shit show. I know other people who are dealing with chronic health issues as well that have to harass their insurer constantly because they're constantly trying to not pay for shit.

...

Well, there's your problem, user. Just stop going. You aren't supposed to go to a clinic if you can't afford it.

...

Can't blame you
You should move to Canada it's similar enough to here that it wouldn't be too tough to adjust

Stop reading so much Marx and read up on actual economics. You marxists are economically illiterate

...

Come to italy we have free healthcare

Make an argument any time

This guy understands it. If you get hurt, just don't go to the doctor and quit your job so a healthy worker can take over while you collect unemployment like the bottom feeder you are.
Anything bad that happens to people is always their own fault.

What does this mean? Is this all that was available through her company?

Good. Americans are the scum of the Earth, please die off and die off fast. Pic related.

you do know why healthcare formed in the first place right? it's because thousands of factory workers were getting injured all the time due to lack of safety regulations (aka not their own fault)

do you know what healthcare is, son?

She is in school. She interns full-time at a company when out of school and part-time when in school that doesn't provide health insurance because she isn't considered an employee, even though she has been there for two years.

Who knows, maybe company insurance would be better. I know plenty of adults who work crappy jobs that don't offer insurance though so it isn't really a solution for all of us dealing with the marketplace. I just don't want shitty excuses, I'm tired of this. I just want to pay taxes and see a doctor like people do in other parts of the world.

Nice shitpost and bait buddy.

neck yourself lad

I think it may be bait mate

made me think

Activates the almonds

Am I not understanding that chart? Why does the NHS appear to be wrecking shit up in all the categories, and then at the bottom the "long, healthy productive lives" bit makes it sound like it isn't working? How is it quality, effective, safe, efficient etc. and people are still sick?

I fucking hate you sometimes, Holla Forums.

...

Isnt the UK 2nd in burgerstan like obesity?

Poe's Law. Really, can't you see an actual ancap making exactly that claim?

Not even close. Bongland's like 25th globally last time I checked.

See countries with good healthcare abd not 20trillion in debt

Fair enough I didn't expect US to be so far down at 12 either.

All capitalist countries

Kill yourself.

Drinking at breakfast?

Keep being a fucking idiot on purpose, Rand, and we'll start saying it.

Perhaps but u still call em socialists in other arguements.
Nut make sense. Cant share in scarity

Well there it is man, insurance is part of the package. Seems like everyone I know with a difficult specialized job has good insurance, like IT positions that need a lot more than a degree.

I'm in the trades, which pays half as much, but the insurance is stellar. I consider it pay since if I take too much time off it vanishes. It's taking in the whole picture when looking at careers.


What am I missing here? Shouldn't the UK "health" be #1?

The most modern technology can only do so much with rotten πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§AngloπŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ genes

...

there isn't. You aren't entitled to a huge house, or fancy car so why should you get nice health care?

I didn't say it's ok to have bad insurance, but it's like complaining your pay is garbage if all you have is a communication degree and you work in HR.

Countries with good health care use a system that totally removes the profit motive. Imagine if they extended it to the wider economy.

That's the wrong attitude. Don't ask why, ask why not.

So it's okay for people to be paid shit if they have bad degrees?

Yes

And people wonder why autistic STEMlords are mocked.

nuff said
the fact that Amerifriends pay more public money per capita than countries with actually functional universal healthcare baffles me

...

Thats retarded you cant od on shit

Are you serious? This is your life man, wasting 4 years to get a joke degree is just shooting yourself in the foot, except now you want it patched up for cheap when you shoot the other foot by getting a joke job.

Thats why it must be balanced without upsettin it.
Like all the money u blow on your empire is better spent at home
Like how much do u spend on your foreign baes

Joke degrees, of course.
And people wonder why autistic STEMlords are mocked. They should have been bullied harder growing up so they wouldn't be so insufferable.

I'm pretty sure the bullying is what made them so insufferable.

Now they can say, "See? Look how rich I am now that I'm an engineer har-har" even though their wages are getting fucked more and more each year

for engineers? is this true?

My favorite argument against single payer by the right is single payer is "Doctor Slavery"

These people are so fucking stupid, they'll eat whatever shit they're given

Yeah, if you rush a shitload of people into stem you create an overabundance of labor resulting in a depression of wages. It's mostly been a big problem with computer science so far but other fields will likely follow suit, with advances in automation to boot.

Them using the Charlie Gard case as an warning against universal healthcare legitimately made me angry

If you make surgeons do their jobs and pay them if someone had their hip fractured recently, really, isn't that just forced wage slavery if he's being rude about it? I love the market.

But don't you know public healthcare is gommunism. and gommunism killed 100 gajillion people

Folks, trannies and globalists socialists want to tell you, with the government, when your tooth is decaying and when you need a route canal, despite them putting fluoride in the water

Is a girlfriend triggering cause it means you actually have to get up and do something(her)?

I'm actually not even a leftcom. That just happened to be the first angry Pepe I scrolled past.

How hard can you possibly rationalize this? The point of an education is increasing self-worth. That's why a line cook can tell you all about his gender studies/nutrition/fine arts degree.

What a fag

It was just gentle ribbing rly wouldn't matter if you were.

Christianity and capitalism go hand in hand to make you feel comfort when you die like a dog being put down

I didn't say I was Christian, why are you putting that label on me? You just have a whole story built in your head about other people and I triggered it.

Because Brits live like shit in a really depressing place.
The best doctor in the world can't save you from wider society.

O tempora o mores!
Cultural capitalism in action.

"Being called",


Because you sound like a fag

I said one thing and you attached beliefs to me. You assumed my faith or that I have one and you assumed im pro capitalism.

Damn dude

I did that because you sound like a fag

But I thought homosexuals were friends to the left?

To be a fag does not make one gay.

????

Exactly. Thank you.

Capped

You forgot the ??? part

What im really wondering though is why you got so offended by something that sounded Christian? Why do you arbitrarily hate a religion?

That's your fault.

Im pretty sure its not

Because it sounds annoying and faggy to me.

But the more people who get a "smart degree" the less that "smart degree" is worth. So how do you know what's a "smart degree" if you have to know what will be the most economically viable four years from when you start you education?

It was 100% was your fault for not understanding I'm correlating you sounding like a fag to being a christian and a capitalist

I have medical and they take it everyhere. Ive gotten surgery and even cosmetic procedures done. The kicker is ive been unemployed for 6 years. I voted trump on his healthcare stance. I would gladly give up my medical care to see it be taken from the rest of the leaches

Whats annoying and faggy about Christianity?

...

You sound like me when I was far left and was a dick to my grandma just because she was religious. I was terrible and it takes one to know one. Examine your thoughts

Either you are one dumb sum'bitch or this is bait.
probably both

Everything it uses to excuse its relationship with the dominant power forces at the time despite it being contradictory to its fundamental morals

The only thing I could imagine being called biblically in a capitalist society would be, would be called to fall through the jaws of hell for your sins.

I acknowledge being a leech as well.

Tell me more about yourself

...

What kinda cuck are you?

Please stop posting this horrific goblin.

It would take too long to type

Just look at yourself and youll know.

they're fucking mutants mah gawd

You won't have to worry about them ever again

I still believe in continuance after death though

I don't plan on stop being a Buddhist and I was never a Christian or an Atheist or anything else.

Stop talking like a fag

so you believe beyond a doubt a religious practiced passed down through human telephone? You believe the version of a religion after being filtered through time?

also
Really sticking to it

Come to slovenia.

Healtcare is free and so is dying from illness.
But you will have to wait 640 days for a dentist appointment. Pick your poison.

Oh fuck you got me.


Yes, I am a Buddhist. I can confirm I believe in the human telephone

Embrace the openness of the fact you don't know whats going to happen and you don't know what effects your actions in this life have on the next phase of existence. Stop being a fag and presuming to know the unknowable

No matter what I guess we all have faith

Rolled 3, 1, 3 + 4 = 11 (3d3)
EE here. You're a retard. You don't know the first thing about what you're babbling about. There is literally no feasible way to automate away engineering.

Brush your teeth with buckshot.

Clearly dying is dying. Thank you for letting us know user.

Someone post her ass again.

I don't want to derail the thread so let me derail the thread even harder

t. someone afraid of getting automated

The cheapest plan Obamacare will even sell me is $300+ a month with a $8000 deductible. I'm unemployed and healthy.

No bullying hoochie

I didn't mean to equate earning power with self worth necessarily.

To put it another way, let's say you get a degree in some specialized engineering field and the job market tanks early in your career from oversaturation. You still have the developed critical thinking skills and discipline from mastering a difficult subject. This can serve elsewhere in life, possibly including related fields.

On the other hand, someone who thinks a hospitality degree will enhance their state of being will probably not finish much better off. Not to say that all non-stem degrees are like this, but people were quick to polarize the issue and get defensive.

"Automation" has been a thing for hundreds of years. You cannot avoid it.


That's the wonders of the marketplace. Tito would be proud.

I bet Hoochie's vagina smells like moth balls and vinegar.

The vast majority of the west has state funded health care, all the while being cheaper and more effective. You americunts are too retarded to look outside your ideological bubble and realise your laissez faire bullshit has utterly failed.

There is no way this chart is correct.
There is an obvious Anglo bias.

Then your healthcare sucks. According to the chart up there, several of the UHC countries have appointment times that rival American doctors (which totally depends on your doctor anyways. I've known some that will see you in a couple of days, some that take a month or more every time), and I can't see doctors anyways because the ones in my network are far away, which was supposed to be the affordable option for me. I'm going to have to pay a significant portion of my income to be able to see doctors that are closer to me, and I have to wait a year for the open enrollment period anyways. So I'm effectively paying a shitload of money for nearly zero coverage, and a year of waiting.

This is late but I've seen study's that show libshit degree holders are more adaptable and have better critical thinking skills while STEM majors can't do shit outside of their degree because they're monkeys trained to only do one specific thing.

Insurance is always a scam. Like car insurance and home owner's insurance, you always pay way more than you get back and then the second you have a claim, if they actually pay it (and they try not to), then they triple your rate. And then they report the claim on a CLUE report (private company) and so if you look for a competitor, all competitors read that report and will have a similar high rate.

Healthcare should be cut down to the price similar to auto repairs. Expensive so people don't waste it, but cheap enough that people still can afford it. None of this $1000 for an ambulance so people are scared of them (insurance doesn't cover them usually) and die instead.
