And the progs want Medicare for all….. I used to think it wasn’t such a bad idea, but the covid era has made me say hell no, never ever let the government have that much power over our health
I moved from US to Australia almost 20 years ago and a week after landing here, I get a call from the gubment, telling me that I qualify for the Medicare and should feel free to make use of it.
I was full on free-market libertarian at that time and I was so mad that government was wasting my tax dollars to give free medicare to everyone and I ranted about it to anyone who cared to listen, even though none understood it.
Over the years, hearing about the Obamacare debacle I started to believe that our system was a great idea - we still have nice private health, but medicare is available as well.
Only now, with Covid/Vaccine etc, I realised that real issue was never the affordability - it was a false premise artificially created by making healthcare expensive and making us think Medicare was the only way to make it affordable. The real issue is always about control. Anyone who is solely dependant on medicare can be forced to get the jab with one order (I am not sure if they implemented it, but they sure talked about it)
Almost all debates and discussions citizens have about various aspects of governance is based on false premises. This is one of the biggest takeaways from all this.
Yeah I agree with you. It’s all such a damn mess. I was an asleep normie up until middle of 2019, so it’s like I’m still learning new things every day, like a new daily understanding of how fucked things are. At first, I was like damn why do the hospitals charge $200 for one bandaid- that’s messed up! Then I was like ok maybe give everyone free basic medical care and they won’t be price gouging ppl. Then I said noooo these people will dole out the healthcare based on your skin color, political party, of whether or not you got the vax. Then I realized the hospitals would probably jack up the cost of a bandaid to $600 on M4A bc that’s just how they roll. They would definitely overcharge everything to bleed money from the taxpayers. At this point, idk what to think or how to fix it other than to tell the government to get out of every single thing
First get the Central Banks out of the way. Then reform currency so that its backed by something. Make a constitutional change that prohibits privately printed money from being backed by the government or people. Start teaching people about money, finance, the central bank scam, why big national debt is how we get enslaved (I have a feeling all these things will become abundantly clear, first hand, in the coming months).
When budget needs to be balanced and there is no funny money, you cannot have a bloated healthcare. Get the government and middle men out of the system, and the free market will take care of bringing you affordable healthcare.
Oh, when you have balanced budget and no funny money all over the world, wars will be so expensive they will not be fought unless there is a treasure thats worth more than the cost of the war.
Every problem can be fixed once you take out the funny money.
