Since you won’t be paying a monthly premium(private taxes) you will financially come out ahead. What choice does one have when they can’t afford it?
Then, doctors(medical professionals) will be involved in making the decision. What would happen in the U.S.?
Medical professionals would be instrumental here. How are these decisions made in a for-profit “healthcare” system?
You’re literally just pulling this out of your ass. I already explained, in painstakingly barney style detail, that there is a $1,944,108,499,096 INCREASE in healthcare costs that would be incurred given current cost per recipient of Medicare.
Yes, costs will likely decrease as the pool of insured increases. How much; however, is another matter. I seriously doubt the same government that spends about $12 Billion/year on one-type of aircraft (the JSF) will save close to $2T insuring everyone.
What does this mean? I’m glad you asked. It means the “savings” you achieved by eliminating premiums is now taken in the form of taxes. Congrats, you did literally nothing.
This is called right pocket left pocket budgeting in the real world were many of us live and work. You should join us in reality.
Scroll up for your answer. I literally just posted a bunch of stuff answering this question.
And in a rationed care system one loses or likely just waits until they lose to be more precise.
Uh, they both get care…

Not to mention that Zep calls the 50,000 number (gobally, and without sources of course) MASSIVE when concerning stem cell treatment, but questions its statistical significance when it concerns 1 country and goes against him.

So every other country that spends less than we do is just making it up? Man, I can’t believe all those other countries are doctoring up their stats to make themselves look better and the U.S. look so bad in comparison.
Absolute garbage! What does this mean? I’m glad you asked. It means the “savings” you achieved by eliminating premiums is now taken in the form of taxes. Congrats, you did literally nothing.
What will you do when Universal healthcare is passed and this turns out to not be true? I know I will be there to say “See I told you so, sucker!”
Scroll up for your answer. I literally just posted a bunch of stuff answering this question. Too bad for you that everyone will be covered. I know that upsets you.

Just like in the U.S. where people die because they can’t afford healthcare.
Yes, I’m just pulling stuff out my ass. It’s more like citing the overwhelming majority of evidence, but it has no effect because evidence means nothing when it comes up against an ideology.
healthcare-related bankruptcy 5x a week, which affect .6% of the population.
I suppose this number makes it okay?
The 50k number was mainly for elective procedures not disease-related treatments. Big difference, wouldn’t you say?
So, when stem cell therapy is classified an “elective procedure” in the forthcoming single-payer system because there’s not sufficient proof that it saves lives, how will that make you feel?

In a Zep payer system woke treatments are always necessary. A crystal in every Dr’s office.

Good grief.
- They artificially control prices via government.
- They have smaller populations and drastically different cultures.
- They pay more in taxes and/or spend less on other things, like:
- They spend less on defense/NATO because we protect them.
- Their healthcare needs and who they cover are different.
No one said this. You are stupid.
It won’t. I understand how math works.

Ya, not the issue, but that’s my fault. I expected you to be able to read at a 5th grade level. I expected too much, obviously.
People die waiting for care in the healthcare systems you think are super, numb nuts.
Correct.
From bias sources.

Brah, the FDA will be like totally disbanded by then and the revolving door between Big Pharm and Big Government will finally be closed. Government by and for the people. Why can’t you get that!?!?!?

I’m actually quite serious about this.
If we move to a single-payer system, care will necessarily be rationed. That’s a fundamental reality. I’m not even commenting on whether that is a good or a bad thing; I actually think we should be more judicious in what we offer/use now.
But the point is, a whole lot of things are going to be classified elective, so it’s funny that our resident champion of single-payer now says “So what? They were elective” without realizing that many of the things he wants to see available are going to fall into that bin.
With the current level of evidence, something like “Stem cell therapy for a sore shoulder” is way, way down the totem pole and is most certainly going to be considered elective. If it comes down to the annual budget and determining what a single-payer system can afford versus can’t, things like that are first on the chopping block.

There is plenty of evidence. But since you’ve drunken the Kool-Ai and can’t think for yourself beyond Big Pharmas prescriptions maybe this will have an effect more than your backing of policies that limit the choice of the public and ultimately making them suffer.

So military spending is okay? Why spend money on things that actually helps the public instead of making bombs that ultimately kill a lot of civilians and make enemies for us.
No one said this. You are stupid. Maybe you didn’t explicitly say this but it was insinuated.
It won’t. I understand how math works. Tell that to ALL the other countries who spend far less than we do on healthcare, moron.
By your own admission you stated in your last post that single-payer would be a push, correct? Even if that were true-and it’s not- it would still be better as everyone would be covered for the same price. Okay now I guess I wait for you to tell me that this country’s version of single-payer won’t cover everyone.
People die waiting for care in the healthcare systems you think are super, numb nuts. What are the ratios, counts?
From bias sources. I guess all of those studies done by other countries are biased. And the few cherry-picked studies you come up with are valid. Where does the overwhelming majority of studies come down on? And yours? And you have the audacity to tell me the studies I post are bias. The ideology you subscribe to makes you look like a total fool.

So because people have PhD’s that puts them beyond criticism? Especially when their arguing the business decisions of a corporation.

Here’s a fun fact. It was actually flavor aid mixed with cyanide in Jonestown. Also a fun fact, they were all hard core socialists. Just another wildly successful adventure in socialism!
