MMPII prob starting up if/when brand new people to facilities get let in?

Or they outsource it to PSI or the FSDO

I literally dont know anyone who is employed and over the age of 25 who doesnt have a decent health plan through their employer. Yeah, maybe their deductible isnt $350, but they're not hurting for coverage.

My wife's brother and sister-in-law are doctors in Canada...yes, it's anecdotal, but they assure me that their nationalized healthcare isn't rainbows and sunshine and chocolate jimmies.

Again not typical for all Americans.

What the fuck are you talking about dude? You're spouting unsubstantiated nonsense. Have you spoken to anyone from a country with a nationalized healthcare system? Hours-long wait lines in the ERs, getting denied for what are considered normal procedures here in the US...talk to some Canadians and people from the UK and see how wonderful and utopian their system is.

You want to talk about why the US healthcare costs so much money? Government regulations. Tell me why a bag of saline costs $250 at the hospital...probably because of the free market, yeah? Or maybe because of onerous, laborious, and prohibitive certification processes by the FDA? That sounds more on the mark to me.

And you're missing the point, again. You can point to a hundred studies about how 51% of the population supports universal healthcare...but at the expense of everyone else who doesn't care for it. You want to subsidize education (great example of regulated government experience), healthcare, and whatever else, go ahead dude, donate $100 a paycheck to the ASPCA or whatever but where would you care to draw the line for dipping into my pocket?

I mean you say that but the WHO consistently ranks the two countries you mentioned above the US in Healthcare standards. We are 37th, behind shithoke countries like Oman, Costa Rica, Saudi Arabia and Colombia.

And yes, it's totally the FDA cussing asinine pricing making sure there's no radium or some shit in my saline, not the bloodsuckers in the commercial Healthcare sector who know they can charge what they want to a captive audience who just doesn't want to be sick or die. Again just flabbergasted at the ability to turn a blind eye to the problem here.

And last time I checked we live in a democracy, and I'm pretty shitty at math but 51 percent (actually closer to 60 btw- 87 percent of liberals and 27 percent of conservatives when it comes to the Healthcare question) is a majority.

If you don't like it you can move to Costa Rica with John macafee.

Wait they have universal Healthcare, never mind.

Or "I heard of this study bro, it says EU healthcare is so good bro, you should try it bro, please bro give me some more of your paycheck bro please I promise the govt wont misuse it bro" see I can do that too bro

 

[Shikaka]

It's really not comparable when the U.S. leads in obesity, preventable diseases and deaths, and suicide alongside having fewer doctors and utilizing more costly equipment. So obviously our healthcare costs more because we utilize it more and are fat pieces of shit.

The best is the France/Japan approach, a roughly 30/70 split of costs with the former paid by the patient.

You don’t see like politicians or people marching in any of these countries for private health care. Wonder why that is.

I mean there’s plenty of peer reviewed studies showing that we pay more for less healthcare wise than pretty much every other developed nation. That’s not anecdotal, you should probably look that word up cause I don’t think it means what you think it does. And you probably wouldn’t even see more money leave your paycheck, just instead of going to a private insurance provider it would go the single payer system.

A CTI degree is almost as useless as a poopy flavored lollipop, and more useless than tits on a boar.

Or you get robbed by a stripper at a Puerto Rican ATM

Can confirm. Although tits on a boar sounds like a pretty ok time after a few months of lockdown.
