@a7las1984 Welcome to the nightmare MLR is. They are actually incentivized to INCREASE the spending of Americans on healthcare in order to increase their earnings. Their profit margin increases outside of MLR if they delay your care and get to use your premiums for float. It’s gross.
@ronsterd89 You know, you people don’t have to open your mouths and prove your idiots right? You literally have multiple brain circuits specifically geared to inhibit your stupidity from escaping betwixt your lips.
@MichaelSLinden@jjotweet@AmericaRus2024 It’s not income. They can borrow against it because it reflects an asset that could be recouped if the debt was not paid. Your car isn’t income you imbecile, and it depreciates, but you can still borrow against it. Do you idiots even try to parse your thoughts?
@MichaelSLinden A is a fallacy
B) this is an informal fallacy, stupid people read net worth statements and infer income, welcome to the stupid people club
Given your 3% ETR and you shared the calculation you shared you might be president of the club.
@RepCDMenefee When you’re a racist you see everything through the lens of race… all you and your brethren are deeply racist morons, you ascend the ladder of success within progressive coded systems because they reward this in lieu of merit. Cry more.
@QuantumQuesoDip@DutchRojas This is actually objectively incorrect. However, at a high enough level it’s true in the sense that an administrator is as pig and shit ignorant as general public, they have no reasonable means to actually grade their care hence “patient experience”.
@DarrigoMelanie The cap is there because the payout is capped… progressives are just rebranded commies, and there is never enough to satiate their greed masquerading as concern for others.
@W1ll0fTheP30ple@waldogerard@CynicalPublius That is not the logical conclusion of what I’ve said, but if you want to insist it is by all means try to construct that syllogism for me. “At some point…” this is completely non-descript, you can say and think whatever you want that doesn’t mean it is reasonable.
@waldogerard@CynicalPublius “have a background which gives them knowledge…”
This is the problem, there is no line because “I have a credential” can never be a premise in a valid AND sound logical argument. Lots of credentials in this world, they should’ve made everyone take logic.
@DrCasteelEM Poisoning the well followed by a tu quoque fallacy. Turns out hypocrites can still be correct, so even if I granted your claim of obvious hypocrisy the reasoning is poor. Seethe about it bro.
Meritocracy is an issue leading to animosity, injustice, and worse outcomes.
@md_butcher@DrCasteelEM In a very tangible and observable sense, for a large portion of the population, the answer is yes. For some reason that portion of society can’t understand why people are losing all respect for credentials. Their heuristic is credential = competence which is… risible.
@maddenifico Trump should sue the judge for defamation, but he can’t because our defamation law is dumb as are our immunities for state actors. Your thoughts are bad and you should feel bad.
