US Politics Thread

I am quite certain all the posters who criticiz(s)e Biden for being too old for his role will be in here railing on McConnell. In fact, they are typically so quick on the trigger I am shocked I'm the first to post this.

Shocked I say.


Fun fact: While Moscow Mitch is way beyond the age of retirement he stays in the senate because of his undying dedication to make it impossible for everyday Americans to have access to healthcare that he gets for free. He's also been key in the fight to make it so women will die if they are unfortunate enough to have an unviable pregnancy.

If the world were fair they'd have walked him out to his car and let him sit there and wait until he went into a seizure before being able to treat him. Then after treating him he should have received a bill for around $80,000 for the medical care he received.

If the world were fair they'd have walked him out to the highway and left him in the middle of the road.

$80k is pocket change to the ****, that would need to be scaled up to something neither he or his backers could afford. Plus treatment withheld until he could provide proof of funds.

I was talking to a Brit when I was on vacation and he was telling me how he thinks the republicans are best for America. I then took about five minutes to explain how our healthcare system works and he immediately changed his tune. I showed him a FB page that raises money for a local kid whose organs don't work so he has to carry around a backpack that filters things for him. He's been in and out of the hospital countless times and is basically under constant medical care to the tune of hundreds of thousands of dollars. I explained that before the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) insurance companies would have denied coverage and his parents would have had to remortgage/sell their home and go into millions of dollars of debt throughout his life which would have ruined their credit rating meaning they could never buy another house or even get a car loan. Then I told him that even with the Affordable Car Act insurance can cost families well over $1,000/month and even then there are out-of-pocket costs for doctors visits, prescription drugs and hospital stays.

No other civilized country would put up with this shit and the vile GQP has people believing that a system like your NHS would ruin America.
