A nugget of red pill truth in a news article

[RealityBitesParticipant 2198]

Buried in thus WaPo Article is a red pill nugget of truth – “
Families provide a certain amount of “social insurance” — someone to care for you if you’re sick, or provide backup income if you’re unemployed, or take care of the kids when you need to be elsewhere. If you don’t have those benefits, then you’ll look elsewhere for them — and today, “elsewhere” probably means the government. “

Under socialized “healthcare” the working class is forced to pay for the healthcare of everyone else while being denied from having healthcare by being put at the back of the line.

Under capitalist “healthcare” the working class is forced to pay for healthcare for everyone else while being denied by having healthcare by not being able to afford healthcare for themselves.

Is seems everyone has arguments on how “healthcare” should be funded instead of realizing that it is the “healthcare system” that is the problem and should be tore down, with the situation being taken back to when there were country doctors and cheap locally produced medicines, instead the people being bankrupted by drug company cartels and doctors that work in temples that are monuments to their egos which are paid for by their victim patients.

While it’s a good snippet from the article, it’s missing a little bit. Add “If you’re a woman” to the beginning of the sentence and it becomes true. Men are routinely left while invalid or unemployed.

I am the one who earned and pays for my family health insurance. It would suck for a lone person, my kid would still be covered, if I was to take a long walk on my own.

Regardless, women can always go the state but men are just out there if they don’t personally pay for insurance.

I failed to realize in my youth that I was the prize. I was going to work. I was going to earn. Little did I realize that due to feminism, that no longer meant I had to share. Road soon, Desert after.

Faust: Markets send signals (prices) to both providers and consumers of health care. Government regulations, have distorted these signals.

There is little incentive for me to find the lowest cost provider or question bills, when all, or most of my medical costs, are covered by insurance.

So how health care is paid for is central to both its affordability and quality.

Some locally produced medicines work; many do not. Drugs going through a formal approval process, makes sense. This can both demonstrate efficacy and allow us to learn about side effects in an objective fashion. But should the FDA manage this process, or consensual, private entities?

The system creates many incentives and disincentives. I’ve probably put the equivalent of $500,000 net present value into medical insurance in my working life, over 3 decades, if one considers my contribution, the employer’s contribution, my taxes to pay for Medicare/Medicaid, and how much it would be worth if saved/invested. If we eliminated the tax subsidy for insurance, and just paid me more, I’d likely opt for no insurance, due to the huge sum of money put in. I’d rather have medical savings accounts than our current system. At least with that system I got some of my money back at the end of the year if I didn’t consume excessive services.

I’d also like to see FEWER people insured and MORE people paying out-of-pocket and FEWER regulations on who can provide services, e.g. give me a flu shot.

Advanced medicines and treatments are expensive to develop. The country doctor isn’t going to do that.

Country doctors can’t provide MRI, chemotherapy, or heart surgery. I find those to be very valuable services, but over-priced due to lack of competition, and insurance.

Why do you think the cost of health care has risen faster than inflation? I would argue that government created demand, by providing free service (medicare, medicaid), and encouraged the private sector to do the same by providing a subsidy for employers to pay me in insurance, rather than dollars.

It is similar to the way in which tuition for college increased at rates much higher than inflation; government created demand by offering loans and grants.

Health care costs are also higher because more Americans have chronic diseases like diabetes and heart disease, due to life choices. Is it cheaper to spend $10,000+ a year on health care as we do in the US, or go to more free market solutions?

This is what gets me. Most MEN don’t have a ton of issues. I mean if they CHOSE to take care of themselves, most of it is just routine maintenance.

I am going to start doing my massive amounts of Dental work that is needed. But as far as Medical? I have DIABEETTTUUS!

Well.. Cut the f~~~ out of the sugar, work out lose weight, and start eating right? I don’t use the meds anymore. And I am better off for it by changing my lifestyle.

But if you want to really get down to the Nuts and bolts, Women and kids are the prime recivers of health care and the elderly when they get there.

The cost that MEN pay for the Health care of all is staggering. And each and every year, they keep asking for more health care and more free handouts. On top of that? THe health care system is made to EMPLOY PEOPLE! Not to give good health care. THat’s the rub.

SO again, as an employer in the private sector, if you simply do not hire women? You are going to have Amazing low rates if we really separate people into categories. That’s the part that we are all getting screwed over on.

If you simply charged women more for their healthcare, and single men less? Then of course WOMEN would cry about it. Say it’s unfair, etc. Etc.

THat’s why I see as soon as they deregulate the health care insurance industry, you are going to see men pay premiums of less then $20 bucks a month for PRIME A+ healthcare provided by Foreign parties. And when that Man gets a family, you charge him as such. Another deterrence to stop MEN from going the plantation route.

If we really got to the Nitty Gritty, companies with an all make work force would be so much better off taking care of not only feeding their workers lunch, but seeing the good value of taking prime care of their work staff.. Overall keeping costs of the workers down to almost nil. Thus all of it going to profits.

Its no secret that MEN help fund this whole system we got here. About time to walk away from that system and say.. YOUR TURN LADIES YOU PAY! THat’s what I say. I think that would make a bunch more jobs too as Bosses could hire more workers. Its a win win..

If women are really so valuable, let them show it. If not. Oh well!

The problem is the medical industry, along with most industries, are controlled by cartels.

The “Supply and demand” concept is dead in this economy.

Even if everyone boycotted these cartels, the cartels would have government steal more money from people through taxes and hand that money to the cartels in the form of bailouts.

“Socialize losses and privatize profits.” The motto of the modern fascist system.

In response to this an homegrown communist movement, which almost no one will admit is communist. This movement is a workers movement towards revolution. This workers movement is known as “MAGA”. And the really fascists, whom claim to be anti-fascists, which President Reagan predicted, are against the MAGA communist workers movement.
