Keep in mind - this is just the premium. Getting actual care requires thousands of dollars more.

politics •Republicans are barreling toward an Obamacare subsidy cliff — with no unified planEnglish
7·6 months agoLike this could easily destroy the entire Health Care industry, not just the insurance companies by creating a death spiral
It’s not that the industry is dead - it’s just that health insurance companies are insanely parasitic and are about to kill the host. The death-spiral already started and there simply isn’t enough money to rebuild or ‘reform’ a privatized healthcare system where insurance companies sit at all the choke points.

29·6 months agoAm I the only one that sees a major flaw, and a lot of historical precedent, around the idea of not paying the mercenaries on time?

Fuck Cars•The guy on the right has never seen a worksite or a dirt road. He drives around town to go shop at Whole FoodsEnglish
4·7 months agoY’all need to start fighting against them sooner-than-later.
Owners of these trucks have an over-abundance of entitlement. They go into absolute temper-tantrums at attempts to get these monsters off the road. Nip them in the bud while there aren’t to many of them- they are the urban-planning version of an invasive weed.
Americans are okay with their own children being shot in schools. They are hardly going to give a shit about a woke communist Yurpean trying to prevent a genocide.

No Stupid Questions•How come butthole scratches doesn't get infected with poop bacteria ?English
721·7 months agoYou would stop getting butthole scratches if you started using a bidet. Gah. Americans are so gross.
Nazis had the guts to follow through with suicide.
Fail to see how a Hindu temple in Tennessee is a negative. Does the poster not like Vindaloo curry or something?
I can imagine no way this could go horribly wrong. No downside whatsoever.
Increasingly I’m starting to suspect that the US is a client-state of Israel. It’s the only way US domestic & foreign policy around the genocide makes sense.
… and, in keeping with the Democratic party winning strategy: She’s marketing the book to international conservatives who will never vote for her.
Zionists are monsters.
The Democratic party is a Ponzi jobs-program for the children of wealthy families who imagine themselves as political consultants. They are focused on raising money from corporations and comfortable college-educated liberals.

politics •Vulnerable Republicans Are Claiming They Love Medicaid After Voting to Gut ItEnglish
13·8 months agoPeople who have been profiting off the for-profit healthcare system have really fucked themselves.
The purpose of Medicade is to externalize those who healthcare providers and insurance companies cannot squeeze a profit from: The poor, children without parents who have resources to spare, and the under-paid. Without Medicade the financial burden of all these people is going to come crashing down on the rest of the system - making it even worse than inoperable … unprofitable.
Harris lost because her campaign sucked - not due to her ovaries. Harris was more interested in suburban Republican voters than Democrats in her own base. She did little to differentiate herself from the unpopular & sclerotic Biden administration; and her surrogates effectively told people who wanted universal healthcare and Palestinian liberation to go fuck off.

World News•Israel levelling thousands of Gaza civilian buildings in controlled demolitions - BBC NewsEnglish
61·9 months agoYou could have been a Nazi in 1942 and legit not known about the horrors of the concentration camps. There is not a single intellectually-honest Zionist who doesn’t understand what they are doing in Gaza and the West Bank.
So, yeah, they are worse than Nazis.

News•Andrew Cuomo says he’ll run a third-party bid for New York mayor after losing Democratic primaryEnglish
576·9 months agoTo be fair: The Democratic Party isn’t a viable political engine for positive social change or a working-class agenda. If Cuomo wins it will be yet another example of how untrustworthy, hypocritical, and vapid Blue No Matter Who voting habits are.
TL;DL version of Contrapoints Liberal Zionism:
It’s a genocide buuuut: “Me me me me me me me me … punch left … me me me me me me me … punch left … me me.”
