Hey all, I’m British so I don’t really know the ins and outs of the US healthcare system. Apologies for asking what is probably a rather simple question.
So like most of you, I see many posts and gofundmes about people having astronomically high medical bills. Most recently, someone having a $27k bill even after his death.
However, I have an American friend who is quick to point out that apparently nobody actually pays those bills. They’re just some elaborate dance between insurance companies and hospitals. If you don’t have insurance, the cost is lower or removed entirely. Supposedly.
So I’m just asking… How accurate is that? Consider someone without insurance, a minor physical ailment, a neurodivergent mind and no interest in fighting off harassing people for the rest of their life.
How much would such a person expect to pay, out of their own pocket, for things like check ups, x rays, meds, counselling and so on?
I love how you posted a quote with her politically pandering by co-sponsoring a bill that she DEMONSTRABLY doesn’t support.
Can you explain why she is now RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT AND SINGLE PAYER ISN’T EVEN MENTIONED IN HER CAMPAIGN PLATFORM? IF SHE SUPPORTS IT SO STRONGLY, WHY DOES SHE AVOID MENTIONING IT IN HER CAMPAIGN PLATFORM? It would win her easy points but she notably DOESN’T MENTION IT DESPITE ASSHOLES LIKE YOU PRETENDING THAT SHE DOES.
Could it because she knew that Bernie’s bill wouldn’t pass and co-sponsoring it would effectively dupe centrist pieces of shit like yourself?
Do you sometimes forget to breathe? I’m a leftist and am very anti-Trump. I just so happen to also have intellectual honesty where I can speak my mind and I don’t have to forget my integrity like you for fear of some simple minded asshole misinterpreting my intent.
It must be physically painful to be such a fucking sheep that you break all people down into two distinct groups: Trump supporters and Trump enemies.
In conclusion, go fuck yourself. Don’t come crying to me when Kamala loses to a man who just survived an assasination attempt. Maybe someday the DNC can field an opponent to the GOP’s candidate that is actually a leftist.
I know! Let’s try and push Kamala left! /s
Edit:
You can’t write this stuff. Guy linked FORBES!

You’re the one telling people not to vote for her.
Until Nov 2024 she is the only option. She’s not perfect but now is not the time to seek a perfect Bernie. Political realities matter. Criticism is fine but anyone saying “do you really want to vote for her” is either a Russian mouthpiece or very clueless.
Did I tell people not to vote for her? Show me where? All I did was speak the fucking truth about Kamala the fucking Cop.
I consider it an honor to be called clueless by a fucking moron that has suspended their disbelief in the face of professional wrestling level fiction, pretending that voting even matters at all when the two choices aren’t even required by law to be chosen by voters and are not subject to election bylaws since the ONLY two parties are private organizations.
It’s better than excusing a fake democracy and trying to cast shame on people who want to literally speak the truth. In the name of true democracy, fuck you for coming at me for telling the truth.
You do realize she literally cannot win, right? Check back here in mid November. I’ll be here laughing at your tacit approval and rabid defense of a sham democracy. I hope it was worth giving up your integrity for a losing candidate.
I’m sure none of the people that you gaslighted will remember how easily manipulated into attacking fellow leftists you were. /s
Ok
