Cowboy wisdom, build the capability first, then we will talk

Cowboy wisdom, build the capability first, then we will talk | Why doesn't Trump give us all free health care? Universal health care is impossible, it's just a demonrat dream. Outside of a few major cities we would have long wait times for basic care. Shortages in the workforce, coverage gaps, rural access would affect everyone else. | image tagged in cowboy father and son,cowboy wisdom,universal healthcare,decades away,demonrat dream,never going to happen | made w/ Imgflip meme maker

Might have something to do with finding out when you do give people free healthcare they show up @ the ER after 2:00 AM after the club close | made w/ Imgflip meme maker

Know what health insurance was like before the Nanny State took hold?
You PAID you medical bills yourself, and then turned them in for a claim usually @ your work.
THAT is what kept us from a $22 aspirin given @ the hospital and shit.

The real issue isn't that is universal healthcare is affordable let alone possible but why the legislators won't pass a bill that lets the rest of us have the same Cadillac Healthcare Plans they get.

I mean, yes is possible. Look, Cuba has had free universal Healthcare for half a century, best medical schools in the planet, and everyone in there does not want it and want to come to USA. Is the cost you pay for free universal Healthcare is worse than paid Healthcare

A university in the 80's and 90's, and I ve no reason to believe it's not still happening, would have its medical facilities overwhelmed each Monday morning with students, mostly, seeking treatments for their newly acquired STDs and whatever other ailments their weekends had subjected themselves to. This made it more difficult to treat emergencies which arrive without notice. There are only so many healthcare workers in every town, city, and state or nation. By definition, "universal healthcare" isn't possible based on that limitation alone. Each person that requires medical attention is important, but government run anything is wasteful and inefficient. Read about how "universal healthcare" failed Liam Neeson, a man that could afford medical bills.

Even if President Trump gave everyone free health care tomorrow, the dmeonrats would scream about long waits, lack of medical staff and then demand buses pick them up at home and transport them.

Actually it is possible. . .step one is cutting all wasteful useless spending and fire almost 99.9% of the bureaucracy that we never needed.

It will never be possible, the demonrats will always find a way to make things worse and increase the cost.

In 2011 I got a hip replacement in Charleston WV. There were 3 Canadians and 2 brits there too to get hip and knee replacements. They all waited 5 years for the surgeries.
Finally they borrowed money to come here and have surgery.
2 cried when they found out I only had to wait 2 months foe my boss to get someone to fill in for me at work.
That's when I discovered the ugly truth of Socialised Medicine. It sucks.

"Government is not the solution to a problem. Government is the problem." We all know who said that.

Private citizens and Churches directly helped the poor for the longest time. . .then government got involved.

Doctors and Patients had a reasonable and healthy relationship and people's heath and welfare were the best in the world. . .then government got involved.

It's very common for rich people living in countries with socialized medicine to travel to the US to get them due to excessive wait times in their countries...

Socialized anything has never worked, never will and the left doesn't care. Like racism they need their drones to believe in it.

The demonrats know all that and why all the hospitals have closed because of non-payments, they just don't care.

A steep rise in U.S. hospitals buying up private physician practices has triggered a substantial increase in prices for medical care with no discernible effect on quality, according to a new study co-authored by Yale economists.

I am shocked not at the report but that yale admitted it was a problem.

In Canada, which has "universal" healthcare, it takes 3-6 months for a regular checkup or even specialists follow-up.

yeah i live in canada and its not great but in some places in the us the wait time is about the same, and then afterwards you have to pay who knows how much. instead both governments should invest in improving healthcare services and wait times while still recognising it as a human right which shouldn't be blocked by a paywall

Forcing others to work for you is not a human right.

Also, the U.S. has the best quality healthcare. The problem is with health insurance, not healthcare. The primary reason health insurance is so high is lawsuits. If doctors and hospitals couldn't be so easily sued, that alone would drop insurance prices in half.

Not to mention, the government forcing high prices for insurance companies.

when the people working for you
a) are being paid (some of the highest salaries in the country even)
b) are potentially saving your life
c) willingly chose to enter their profession
its not really forcing them to work for you, its their responsibility

so the patient should willingly pay for services received. If you don't have to pay, then you are indeed forcing someone to work for you for free, aka slavery.

for example in sweden which also has universal healthcare the government mandates that you can't wait more than 90 days and then the average wait for a checkup or specialist follow up is only a few days to a few weeks
