Good news! The democrats will win a landslide victory in 2026 and guarantee you health care!
Until 2028 when they need to compromise with the republicans on a spending bill.

They do not want you in Iran.
They do not want you in Japan.
They do not want you here or there.
They do not want you anywhere.
They do not want you. Understand?
Just calm the fuck down, Uncle Sam.
No problem, those weren’t for you anyway. They’re for Exxon, Chevron. Elon, and all of Trumps friends and sycophants to divide up amongst themselves.
Amen - I could retire early and comfortably if I had guaranteed healthcare. As it is, I'll have to work until I die.
Republican's response:
A little bit of Venezuela in my life
A little bit of Greenland by my side
A little bit of Cuba is all I need
A little bit of Canada is what I see
A little bit of Mexico in the sun
Fuck my life. I just found out my medicine (life saving, cannot live without medicine) has gone up in price 10x because of new insurance I got this year. Fuck me, right? In other countries, it's pennies, here it's hundreds of dollars.
i just got too much income to use the state healthcare, but the ACA subsidies has ended? so i cant really afford that anyways. and i have chronic skin conditions which means i would need refills often.
try contacting the manufacturer, maybe they have a program to help make it affordable.
I'm sure they know that. Point of the post is that they shouldn't have to.
sometimes its not much of a discount in most cases, if its something like expensive one like biologics. he might want to look into coupons, many sites have them, but EXPENSIVE name brand ones are still too expensive.
I would have loved a North American Union with free trade, freedom of movement, and shared currency between Canada, the US, and Mexico, maybe even Cuba as well if it didn't infringe on their communism. But that was a dream from a more naive time when we could've been better neighbors.
These days it's enough to demand that our borders and healthcare costs don't increase. No new wars, no new territories, and we need to let Puerto Rico choose between statehood and independence.
Puerto Rico can't currently choose between statehood, continued territory status, or freedom. Not because they don't have agency, but because there's no consensus among Puerto Ricans. There are advantages and disadvantages for all three options. As I'm not Puerto Rican, I don't have a say in the debate.
The majority voted for statehood... but as long GOP controls congress, they dont have a chance because they'll lost their advantage.
Same with DC. Practically everyone there wants statehood, the license plates have "no taxation without representation" as a protest even, but Congress kills it every time it comes up.
Ahh, sorry. My info was out of date. I live on the opposite coast so I hadn't heard anything about PR in some time.
The reason they are not a state has to do entirely with racism. Hell, they were actively sterilizing Puerto Rican women up to the 70's to try and stop them from having so many brown babies
Too bad you can't invade healthcare
Women are so hard to read...

Hey US Americans, quick reminder that quality, affordable healthcare is available abroad; I use it and you can ask about healthcare here or in travel.
If I ever get cancer then this is the route I’m going to cure it. Fuck this country when it comes to how they rob you if you have cancer.
I am right there with you. In Cambodia, I was friends with a group of old guys from the US and all four of them were able to treat serious medical conditions by avoiding US "healthcare". One of them had won a years-long battle against cancer right before i met them which he never could have afforded in the US.
Would have died years ago in the US, instead he was sitting around a table eating sushi and drinking beer with friends.
My health problems have largely been dental, and Thailand dentists unequivocally superseded the quality of care in the US for less than 1/3 of the cost at the relatively expensive bangkok clinic, BIDC.
If you ever want info about health care abroad, reach out to me at Travel.
There's some good healthcare info in this post, too.
Hope you got a nice vacation out of it too. My great uncle died in Thailand during the Vietnam War so I’ve always wanted to go there for that reason.
Thanks, i live abroad full time so it's all been a vacation for the past 15 years!
Cambodia was great: angkor wat is fascinating, the towns are all chill and i got to hang out with those old guys at a great sushi bar/microbrewery while they told all their stories.
I've backpacked and lived all over Thailand more than a few times, i recommend it fairly constantly. Great food, people, nature, waterfalls, you'll appreciate giving it a go.
2nd link is just a picture.
My sister travels to Mexico (from Nashville, TN) for healthcare she can afford.
"Don't worry, we're gonna take Cuba and get all of their doctors to give us the healthcare" /s
Revolution was and is your only solution, since no judge or court will do something.
Just engage in the army and kill people for free health care.
I can guarantee that if the Americans try to take Canada a whole lot of them will have all their healthcare worries taken care of.
Trump: We have healthcare, the best healthcare actually. Better than anybody else. Some people say… you get it
The healthcare at home: Venezuelan oil
Trump voter's response as they die from an easily treatable disease: He's right, though, we do.
We have healthcare, the best healthcare actually
We actually do. We have some of the best healthcare in the world if you can afford it, and healthcare stats that make it absolutely clear just how few people that is.
WE
Ste the , 'bad guys'
We might never be seen as , "the good guys " again
hes using this to distract from the epstein files, which hurts alot of gop and billionaires, coicdentally they were suppose to release the files around the time of the attack.
hes doing everything to make it stick so it can overshadow any news on the epstein files, the MSMS are totally complicit.
Invading a sovereign nation, kidnapping their leader, and saying "we run this country now" is not a fucking distraction.
Threatening to do the same to several nations that used to be our allies is not a fucking distraction.
How can people be this fucking ignorant
"if I were to give you free healthcare, ok not free... lightly subsidised healthcare would you stop asking about the Epstein list and about all those kids I raped?" Tick one answer below:
(A) Yes.
(B) No, keep going to war and doing other shit to distract us!
Get invaded by Canada, Cuba or Greeland (Denmark) and you'll get first class healthcare (you'll have to give up your guns though). Get invaded by Mexico or Venezuela and the situation is a bit complicated, but you at least get basic medical care for free.
Too bad there isn't a party in this country that wants healthcare.
I recall one party trying really hard to improve things, and the other trying really hard to make sure they could still use healthcare to punish people
I recall one party trying really hard to improve things
I recall that party finding just enough no votes like they always do. No party wants healthcare.
If democrats supported healthcare with a quarter of the tenacity with which they support netanyahu, we would have free healthcare for everyone in this country.
I'm blocking you because you post too much politics to what I think should be non political communities. Bye.
