there's only one problem with your theory about low paid doctors and true national healthcare being "expensive as fuck".
it's called the rest of the world.
england, france, and scandinavia all pay less than we do and cover all of their citizens.
no, the citizen pays next to nothing for the medical care, when services are delivered, yet they pay exorbitant tax rates to fund the system, even if they do not use it.
seriously, only a moron would believe this line of crap.
england's NHS is tottering on the edge of insolvency, and they raise the tax to fund the system constabntly.
france's system is solvent but the taxes are much higher than even england's
scandinavia's systems run like a swiss watch, but their tax rates are criminally high.
we pay more, and yet you would be bankrupt if your appendix bursts. you would lose your home, if you had one. this happens to many more millions than will ever get a cancellation notice.
who is this WE you speak of? you dont pay taxes, so you are of course quite happy to raise the taxes of others for new benefits for yourself.
heck, you might even die unceremoniously in our healthcare system. kent snyder did. he didn't need to die, rawn pawl just made it tougher to see a doctor than all of the others did.
dont know or care who kent snyder is, you got names for all the people who HAVENT died or gone bankrupt under our current system?
the poor in our nation are about on par with the poor in cuba. even wealthy cubans get better healthcare than our poor receive.
cuba has a full nationalized system, the "poor", the "rich" and everybody else (except the apparatchiks) get exactly the same care you dolt. only the party leaders and fidel's family get good medical care, and they get it by going to france or canada, or england and paying with the people's money.
the problem is not with england (basically our medicare)
HA HA HA HA HA! youre so full of shit. medicare doesnt run hospitals, operate a "free at the point of service" healthcare program or any such bullshit.
or cuba (better than our system for the poor)
cant keep your cuba story straight?
or france or scandinavia (they both pay less than we do), the problem is with our system.
everybpdy pays more taxes than you. however it is easily ascertained by any idiot, that france and scandinavia have much higher national tax burdens which is needed to provide a huge array of social(ist) services, which they have decided they want. WE, the american tax payers have not approved such services, despite the repeated demands by lefties that we run down that rabbit hole.
the US's tax burden is STILL lower than france or scandinavia, despite spending more on military forces than most of the world put together.
there are lots of great examples out there that could teach us how to do health care or education better, but you miserable fucks would never acknowledge them. but you miserable fucks have no problem bragging about austerity based on estonia and latvia.
not even sure what you are squawking here. "we" dont need lessons on tax and spend leftism, we have you for that, just because we havent adopted the "reforms" you insist are needed, and embraced the glorious revolution doesnt mean we are failing, it means YOU are failing to properly radicalize the proletariat. work harder comrade.
dont be so hard on yourself comrade, someday the usa will embrace the revolution, then we will all goin together and celebrate the victory of hard working agitprop creaters like yourself, shortly before you are airbrushed out of history and die of "natural causes" with an icepick through your ear in mexico city.
