Why stir up shit, quoting a week-old post, not on the thread topic?
Oh, that's what you do.
LVP = least valuable poster

The subsidies are far more likely to go to red states than blue. Amazingly, Democrats are fighting to keep Republicans insured.
In red states, 8.5% of residents have benefitted from an ACA tax credit this year, compared to just 3.2% of residents in blue states won by Harris. That means that the proportion of people in red states benefiting from premium tax credits is nearly three times the rate in blue states.2

If the Democrats only care about the politics, heard an interesting idea to solve the shutdown, Democrats agree to clean bill with the proviso that all Epstein files must be released with only victim names redacted. No way anyone opposes that and comes out ahead.
Ahh percentages. What is the actual number of people as opposed to percentage of the population?
You're the biggest asshole hereI guess we are never going to get an ignore list feature. No way to not see the massive piles of dog shit posted by McMurt every hour. Absolutely wrecked this forum by being an asshole 24/7.
Why don't you just stop reading his posts and stop whinging like a menstrual teenager.
Why don't you follow your own advice and ignore shooter's posts if he is such an asshole.
Methinks you are biased based on political views and not capable of comparing actual levels of "assholeness". Let me know when shooter threatens violence against other posters.
Your girlfriend OS is the poster who was all in on the clot-shot in 20-21 on the old forum. His actions may turn out to be indictable, when the truth is allowed to be revealed. He admitted he was on Big Pharma's gravy train, doxed himself and his employment , then blamed others ....You're the biggest asshole hereI guess we are never going to get an ignore list feature.

He intentionally instigates conflict with posters, then whines to HH..
And you're little more than an insipid sheep.
Perhaps you should move there....That’s the real birth of our health system failures, health care should never have been tied to health insurance and Medicare.
FIFY...
Good point, access to witch doctors and leaches would be a lot cheaper. But if one wants a doctor, which takes 11 years or more of school and residency, MRI machines (close to $1 million new), and medicine (average cost to bring to market, 1.3 billion), it would be tough to afford without sharing the risk.
Somehow Europe has more insurance, pays less than Americans, and lives longer.
I have not worked for, or been supported by, "Big Pharma" any time in the last 30 years.
I am fully employed, despite DOGE terminating my biggest grant. I just got a program for drugs vs. Chikungunya virus funded right before the Trump shutdown, in fact.
As to the COVID-19 vaccines that saved 15 or 20 or 25 or 30 million lives worldwide (depending upon what study you read), the numbers saved could be far higher, but for morons like you. And it is in fact true that vaccinated Covid-19 survivors have a higher rate of some diseases as compared to the unvaccinated who died. It's hard for a dead body to get cancer, after all.

I'm not sure healthcare here is worse than every other western govt, though. People from all over the world come here to have procedures or treatments performed. The US leads the world in pharmaceutical development, too.@co-hoosier I think the main issue with health care in this country is that the people who make a ton of money off a irrevocably broken system will fight tooth and nail to keep the relative status quo.
I think it was Rockfish on the old, old boards who used to beat the drum of 'if every other western government could figure out health care we should be able to do it too.' Or something like that.

The quality of our healthcare might be fine, but there's no question that we're an outlier when it comes to how much we pay for it.
Agreed. It'd be nice to see an objective analysis that shows how much of that might be due to crony capitalism and regulatory capture.I'm not sure healthcare here is worse than every other western govt, though.

Well, since everyone else has some kind of "socialized medicine" in place, how about all of it?
Dems would rather buddy up with Antifa than hard working Americans.

Political expedience is, more so now than ever, the default setting for our elected officials and this knows no geographic, party or level (local, state or federal) bounds. It is all encompassing. The lies and deception, the power seeking, the grift and patronage is permanently baked into the system.
And the worst part about it is that we are beholden to it, obliged to pick the least repugnant side of the same dirty coin every election cycle. I've about had my fill of this poison pill, I don't think I can keep it down any longer.
A good friend will bail you out of jail, but your best friend will be sitting next to you in the cell saying "that was f***ing awesome"

You have changed your tale again about who killed your golden Goose.
And you can drop the false bullshit about the results ...Studies abound detailing the damage whores like you have promoted.
Does the term 'turbo cancers' get your attention?
Turbo cancers, tooth fairy, flat Earth, chemtrails, space lasers...
The cult swallows it all, hook, line, and sinker
