He's not a good guy, and I have issues believing his version of the story.
But if this is true we should be concerned. No one should die because of ineffective medical treatment and this is showing the further decline of our medical system.
Although if someone is to die from inadequate medical care, I won't complain that it was him. I suppose that's the point of the community after all
My brother in Christ, this concern started many, many years ago. What do you think was happening before "Obamacare"??
You're right, maybe I should have said outraged or afraid.
I guess it just feels like our system is reaching that toppling point
My brother in Christ.......
For fucks sake you give me the adjective you want then
I don't like the way things are. They have me worried our system is on the edge of collapse. Honestly the collapse has already started. Do you prefer pissed and terrified?
Does this work better: 🙃🙃🫠🫠🫠😡😡😡😡
It's not about adjectives. It's about timing. Everything you say we "must be X or Y about"? People have been feeling that way since before Obama, because before Obama's administration, the healthcare system (or insurance companies, I dunno) were royally fucking over tons of Americans regardless of political affiliation.
My, precious, sweet brother in christmas. The moment for realising the healthcare system of the states is the most hellish on the planet was twenty years ago. Your contrymen does not want health to be sure they have clearly stated many times that the lobby industry is more important.
This has nothing to do with me having feelings on the matter. Me being afraid of what's to come does not exclude anything you've said
That was exactly my point and I'm glad you explained it to him.
We're waaaay past the point of realization and adjectives.
