President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

There is a difference between trying to watch medical costs and going to the lowest bidder. I'm not going to the after hours clinic unless there is absolutely no other choice. My experience is that if a physician is working at the Doc in the Box, there's a reason.

 

"(CNN)The Senate's marathon debate to dismantle Obamacare enters Day Two on Wednesday, as Republican senators continue painstaking deliberations to reach an ultimate agreement on health care reform.

The first order of business: senators will consider as an amendment an Obamacare repeal bill -- without an immediate replacement -- that Congress passed in 2015 and was vetoed by former President Barack Obama.
That proposal would significantly gut the Affordable Care Act by repealing its unpopular individual and employer mandates, ending Medicaid expansion and rolling back a slew of the law's taxes. The repeal would not go into effect for two years -- a "transition period" during which Republicans would draft a replacement plan."

Vote on repeal and delay soon.

 

And yes, I'm aware of Jeb Stuart's "A soldier who won't fuck won't fight" quote.

 

Yup - swear to god, after I read this I went to my facebook, and my niece, whom I love dearly, and who loved Hillary like you wouldn't believe, had a long facebook rant against Trump's tweets.

They are good and energized right now. Its like YF is pulling the puppet strings.

 

Poll: Half of Trump voters say Trump won popular vote

 

Poll: Most GOP Voters Say Courts Should Fine News Outlets for Biased Stories

So who will decide what's "biased?"

A "Truth Panel" appointed by Fucko of course.

Also, of course, no word whatsoever about fining the White House for issuing objectively false statements.

 

I'd argue many people are incapable of synthesizing some of the more complex medical information coming at them. I'd also argue the things people most value are themselves and their family, and will thus be primed for acting irrationally.

 

Shhhh. We mustn't say anything that could hurt their fragile feelings because grumble, grumble, millenials or something.

 

A health care organization faces fixed costs and variable costs. It answers to multiple stakeholders with varying perspectives and expectations. It requires revenues to ensure the continued inflows of the resources it needs. If, at the end of the day, it doesn't create value in excess of the value of those resources, some other entity will be given a chance with them.

You don't understand the comparison because you're unwilling to understand.

 

Right. It's not proper to observe they may be intellectually challenged. What do you think you are, some smarty pants?

You think you're so damn smart mister smarty man because you done gone to kollege and you lerned numberin and all that smarty man stuff.

You see, if you understand the mathematical statement, "65,800,000 > 62,900,000," that makes you a egghead intellectual elitist.

 

What I mean is, I find the commodification of human sickness and suffering to be morally and spiritually abhorrent.
