This is the ultimate midwit healthcare take.
No, 32 countries have not “figured out” universal healthcare.
The UK has “free” healthcare, and roughly 1 in 3 cancer patients in England still fail to start treatment within 62 days of urgent referral.
Canada has “free” healthcare, and the median wait for neurosurgical treatment is around a year.
Australia has “free” healthcare, and over half the country still buys private insurance despite paying for a public universal system with their taxes.
Switzerland has universal coverage, because residents are required to buy private insurance. There is no government system where benevolent bureaucrats tuck you in at night with a warm blanket and an MRI appointment.
The actual lesson from other wealthy countries is not “they figured it out.”
America’s system has huge problems. Our prices are insane, insurance markets are distorted, and hospital systems are cartelized. Our regulations make care more expensive than it needs to be.
Yet we still guarantee access to even the 8% who don’t have coverage. We give easy routes to qualify for medicaid for those with disabilities.
Pretending the rest of the world solved healthcare because they slapped the word “universal” on a rationing scheme is not analysis.
It is bumper sticker policy for people who think access means having a card in your wallet while you wait a year to see the doctor you need.
When will film producers learn that movies are so outdated at this point? I would rather sit at home and watch 10, 1 hours long episodes, and get good story rather than sit for less than 2 hours getting nothing but plot armor 😂
@lavern_spicer He said on Tucker Carlson that he was swatted and when the police came to his place they investigated and determined there was no human trafficking occurring. But everyone just running with he got arrested for it 😂😂
@Zarinacar Cause when I get off work with talking to people all day I don’t want to talk to anyone the rest of the day 😂 my social battery is on critical
@JoJoFromJerz I’m tired of liberals protesting for equality and then when they don’t have the spot light they could care less about the people they were protesting for. Not even conservative but I can see that liberals are worse 🤷♂️ it’s all theater
