Do you think I actively pray for kids to die of cancer? Why can't you call out that complete nonsense for what it is? Also, what you think might happen and what will actually happen are not the same thing.
You are on the list. The healthcare system as it stands is not a supply/demand type system. I've been advocating for MORE free market principles, not a perfectly free market. If you dump cash into the market it can't help but raise prices. If I buy things using your money I will act differently than if I was using my money.do you see healthcare as a supply/demand type of economy? I've asked this several times as have others. I may be on your List™, but you're answering someone else who asked the same question. This is where you typically buckshat out of a conversation.
pathetic, truly

Ok, take all the military away and see what happens.
Yawn. That's not what I said, Bucky. If I cared enough, I'd look up a few of your quotes whining about people not using you exact words or attacking something inferred. But I don't.It's like saying that a guard dog is useless as protection for the house because nobody has attempted to enter and kill everybody.
You could be actively praying for kids not to suffer and live long happy lives. Unfortunately praying doesn't do shit for those lives no matter how much you wish, hope, dream, or fantasize. What does impact them is voting for people who support polices that actually does harm them. Its a reality you apparently think you can pretend doesn't exist... I'm guessing because yourgutgod tells you as much.
Feel intellectually superior now?
The military protects us by existing so it helps the "common man".Yawn. That's not what I said, Bucky. If I cared enough, I'd look up a few of your quotes whining about people not using you exact words or attacking something inferred. But I don't.

So bucky is ok with a poor child dying from something as treatable as anaphylactic shock. while the wealthy person gets treatment for a self induced drug od. maga baby, MAG A.So you want people to have skin in the game or quit playing the game, right?
Unlike you I will apologize if I misrepresent your point. I won't pretend that I know better than you about what you meant.Yawn. That's not what I said, Bucky. If I cared enough, I'd look up a few of your quotes whining about people not using you exact words or attacking something inferred. But I don't.
Sure it does. The math is simple. Today 20 million more people have insurance than in 2010. Who's paying for that? The rest of us, that's who.
I don't think I did. That isn't something I say.Corrected to a person who called me a 'hillbilly'?
Uh you do realize that not all of those 20 million receive subsides and I'm not aware of anyone getting 100% subsidy.
Your ignorance on the subject continues to astound me.
I don't think I did. That isn't something I say.
As others have pointed out, "basic supply and demand" doesn't work well when the demand is relatively inelastic. Lacking aggressive price controls, it's a recipe for for price gouging and ever skyrocketing costs. It's not a coincidence that this is exactly what has happened in our profit-driven healthcare system.You are on the list. The healthcare system as it stands is not a supply/demand type system.

You are vile. Get help.
I don't hope for any of that nonsense.
I didn't see his post. No need for personal comments, I agree. Plus you people make great bread.I was talking about the guy that I corrected the spelling for, not you. He called me a hillbilly, I corrected his spelling and you took a cheap shot at me while saying nothing to him. Of course, he plays for your team.
Indeed, and there are parallels with funding the military and funding health care. They insist that we should pay more to support their obsession: killing brown people overseas. It's only right that they should pay to support ours: saving them here at home.Sounds like 'protection insurance' to me.
You can't look at what this industry has become and complain about "basic supply and demand" because the system isn't running on free market principles.As others have pointed out, "basic supply and demand" doesn't work well when the demand is relatively inelastic.

I hope you take this as a light hearted joke as it was intended.
I'd correct the grammar of somebody who called me a moron, for sure. I retract my comment on the subject.
