If an individual state like California wanted to try it, that's a different story.

if an entity that mints its own currency and has infinite spending power to direct the economy wants to do it, I hate that. If an entity constrained to balanced budgets and tax revenue with no ability to actually fund the program wants to do it but fails, that's great.
This is like refusing to accept your paycheck because of the possibility that you might get robbed.
The only person who’s happy with the insurance based system of health care is either an insurance agent, a billionaire, or a robut
Then the capitalist rob your whole paycheck anyway.
Something I have noticed about leftists is that they can never be disagreed with, only betrayed,
What does this even mean?
It means people are calling her an idiot rather than considering her clearly stupid opinion she invented to get engagement
people are dunking on her for her chud opinions instead of civil debate like its reddit
It means she has been told this about the democrat party and their own views and she is just projecting.
: “Thank goodness for the private sector! Especially insurance companies which are still able to raise your rates based on immutable characteristics for whatever reason! Why? Because they would never discriminate even if the discrimination won the culture war!”
I'm not going to stop having opinions
Truly, one of the great tragedies of history
please, no more opinions! Make it stop!
it’s harder
I like her complaining no one is explaining to her why we should have Medicare for All but she's a smug asshole when someone is explaining to her why her argument is wrong and we should have Medicare for All
It’s literally easier. A medicare for all option would have you protected under the equal protection clause.
: “You see this shit, Vegeta?”
: “Yes Kakarot, unfortunately…”
SILENCE, the blue check mark is speaking
SHUT UP- SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU DON'T HAVE THE TALKING CHECK MARK
Yeah insurance companies would never deny critical coverage. Also the US government would never pass legislation that dictates what insurance companies are or are not allowed to cover, or what treatment options states are or are not allowed to allow. Definitely never
Love to be talked down to by people with memories so short they make goldfish look like venerable lore masters, and understanding of the world so naive calling it childish would be an insult to children.
Ok, maybe some kink shaming
are telling me to shut up instead o--
Shut the fuck up, cracker.
I think what this bozo is saying is that public financed healthcare could be captured by reactionary interests, so the alternative would be a private healthcare system? The UK has both the NHS and a private healthcare industry so this doesn't make sense.
It also doesn't make sense to apply this to the US because even private healthcare is notoriously shit for trans people. Furthermore I doubt the UK's private health industry is somehow full of fewer TERFs than the NHS.
it also doesnt make sense because the government could ban it through private healthcare if they wanted (and they have and she knows it. states with private healthcare ban abortion so this isnt even theoretical its literally happening right now in her country in the current fucking year)
ADDITIONALLY
MFA isnt even gov run hospitals its just a government run health insurance system and if it didnt pay for it people could still get this done privately anyways or even get private insurance for it anyways
All you people telling me I’m wrong are ignoring my “I’m never wrong” t shirt
I guess we have no choice but to allow Hobby Lobby to determine who deserves health care.
Tfw Hobby Lobby isn't a special interest group for weird hobbies but a hobby store with a special interest in oppressing LGBT people.
They don't like Jews either iirc
Yeah, here in the US your healthcare will be unreasonably expensive on top of having transgender care banned anyway.
it's impressive that she remembers to breathe without being told to
Dude even in the UK they can just get free blood tests done and do DIY even if they are against trans health. Thats already far cheaper than the USA, as the blood tests are a very big cost.
I thought most GPs have stopped doing blood work for trans people?
I haven't heard of that
It's definitely a thing. They have the right to refuse to do your blood work if you're not using an NHS gender clinic, but since the waiting list on those are at, what, 30 years or something now? A lot of UK trans people go private or DYI, and a lot more doctors are using that right
It's not all doctors obviously, I don't even know if it's a majority. But it's a lot, and it's getting worse especially for young trans people.
I've seen quite a lot of British trans people complain that their GP has suddenly stopped shared care with their GIC too, and are now struggling to find one that's willing to help them.
Fuck that island so much 
Transphobes and cowards, and at this point the second is just cowardly transphobia.
"sweetie only rich people should be allowed to transition"
all the people tell me to shut up
shut up
The UK still has private healthcare, no?
if an individual state like california wanted to try it
JARVIS! what was the Co-operative Commonwealth Federation? 
all my grains for somebody doing the bare-minimum investigation before yelling about something
