My husband is on Facebook. His tolerance is much better than mine. He told me about thereβs people saying βPeople need to pay for their own medical expenses instead of depending on insuranceβ. Some are laughing about that Medicaid may be cut. Thereβs still not enough βFind Outβ happening yet.
Is he on rich people's facebook? What kind of idiot would be happy to pay out of pocket? Oh wait...maga.
The kind that abuses credit till it's ruined and has no credit. We know the type.
I guess they are the ones who don't pay their debts either.
He said it was on one of the Democrat pages. It was on some of their posts.
I deactivated my FB account last night. I'm starting with a break for a week, but may extend that. I've had to unfriend a few people recently and it's sad to see true colors revealed...
I got rid of my Facebook account I had for over 10 years back in 2021. I havenβt regretted it once. I donβt know how my husband stands it on there. He just handles things better than I do.
They are one illness or broken bone away from a five-figure bill.
Iβm starting to see word for word identical posts supposedly written by the poster. Safe to say FB is inundated with bots.
Ok - weβll see. All mouth these people.
Hi Shannon π
Hi my friend! My god this is terrible
When you think they canβt get worse , they get worse.
Holy crap ignorance!
Pay for their own medical expenses? Sure, until said MAGA has a heart event that results in surgery. They will need to sell their home to pay the bill. π₯π
Insurance IS a survival method for the hideously high fees. Few people actually have available income to manage a significant health emergency.
Those people must be rich
They're not. They're fucking idiots who deserve the derision and pain that's coming their way.
Even the "smart" ones turned out to be idiots.
EXCEPT EXCEPT when something happens to them or one of their loved ones. Then they cry and bitch and moan and blame Biden
True.
People saying that people need to pay for their own healthcare is because our so called president said it first.
Cruelty and suffering are the end goals.
Must nit have affected them yet
My cancer treatment in Februrary 2024, CAR t-cell therapy, billed my insurance $1.7 million. Hilarious.
OMG
You know I would never wish anyone cancer but those that say that they need to catch some. But then it doesn't even need to be cancer. Let it be migraines! 10 pills of my migraine medicine is $1,166.03.
My RA med costs as much as $2100 a month. Free to me thanks to military retirement π
$11 664.35 a month if I lose my coverage. Not counting my cancer medications.
I understand . I feel the same as you.
One of the anti-psychotics for my depression for a 30 days supply is nearly $4000 alone without insurance. I would be in so much debt if I didnβt have insurance. These people obviously have no idea how much healthcare actually costs
He who laugh's last thinks the slowest
Yeah I need to have surgery on my hand and my thumb actually and the out-of-pocket cost if I had to spend cash would be approximately $35,000 these people are morons.
Same.
It is amazing the lack of empathy. The US is the world's richest country, but access to that wealth is being systemically eliminated from all, but the very top. Imagine not wanting to help the elderly, the veterans, those with medical needs, the starving people around the world. Who are we?
Ohβ¦ I think thatβs the saddest part. We answered that.
β¬οΈβ¬οΈβ¬οΈ
Americans with a MAGA fungus infection... not sure how we fix it?
That's certainly an option
Remember, these βpeopleβ might not be people at all. Russia and their bots have free access to Facebook.
I mentioned that and he says there must be a lot of them because he said the comments had lots of likes and others replying they agree.
Zuckerberg is the villain in the Facebook story.
Yes, the Putinβs cyberspace can do that as well.
Mike Johnson's Obscenity Prayer: God grant me the cruelty to take from the poor, the sycophancy to give to the rich, and the wisdom to always know the difference.
They probably think they'll be safe. That TFG won't let it happen to republicans or Red Hats. Just wait till it hits them. Yeah, FO part is past due.
see - they will never get it. there will never be anything that makes republicans get it. they could be dying from it themselves and not get it. there will never be a moment that they change their minds.
FB, like twitter when it started to change, I see TONS of open ended controversial posts ( that randomly show up in my feed) designed to create arguments -SO many in the comments just love Musk and go on and on about how heβs the smartest man in the world etc. Iβm convinced they are paid- Hope so!
People who say that are young and strong and have no idea what kind of sufferings other people go through.
It takes a special kind of dumb to laugh at your neighbors alongside the richβas if youβre one of them.
Hundred percent people! When you stay in an echo chamber itβs hard to cross reference!
Just wait. When people donβt have money to buy things, the corporate slowdown and layoffs will happen. When people donβt have healthcare, the doctors in certain areas will feel it and their spending with slow down. And so onβ¦ Finding out isnβt always a quick processβ¦
The MAGATS really ARE the DUMBEST people on the PLANET Do they have any idea what a hospital stay costs? Or treatment for an illness? No one is immune. We all get something that needs medical care And they are βlaughingβ about Medicaid being cutπ€¬ the same ppl who call themselves βChristiansβ
Morning Michelle π These people obviously havenβt faced any medical issues themselves. They donβt have any empathy. Theyβre ignorant enough to think theyβre winning and weβre losers. That was one of the comments too. Itβs pathetic.
They sure are stupid and short sighted. I think they are fueled by racism. They have so much hate they enjoy seeing others suffer. And too dumb to understand they will suffer too.
I donβt understand these billionaires either. For me being very wealthy would be a joy to help others. This would give me happiness.
You and me both Sheila.
Itβs why most good people arenβt rich. They have a conscience that wonβt let them take advantage of others.
Isnβt that the truth.
Grew up around those with means in a family without any. If one observes, one can learn a lot from how those with means act. Many of the well to do understood and did more than pay lip service to Noblesse Oblige. Then, there are the others, like those attracted to trump.
I think itβs about having a moral compass. Most feel they are entitled like musk and trump.. then we have good guys like Mark Cuban and Jeff Bezos ex wife, MacKenzie Scott.π
MacKenzie is in a class by herself even above Cuban. Her latest giveaway should've served as an example to any of that ilk.
see Andrew Carnegie for how the super rich should act and behave..
Exactly! So much good could be done β€οΈποΈβπΌπͺΆπ
That Christian cult of stupidity.
They should be truthful and say, they are Christian Nationalists. They hate anyone who isnβt white and just like them. π€¬
So true Michelleπ€¬
When they canβt afford to send their parents to a nursing home, see their small inheritance eaten up when they do, are forced to care for them, or watch them die for lack of care, they wonβt think it is funny anymore.
The delight in ppl feeling pain is still shocking to me
Itβs shocking with so many lacking with empathy .
Ironic, coming from the same group of people who rage that FEMA should be repaying to rebuild and furnish their entire house after a natural disaster. Which is it?
It's whatever they say it is whenever they say it. The nihilism and selfishness are a feature, not a bug.
Very probably Russian creepers.
He could be the one that needs Medicaid one day,people in nursing homes need the benefit and children.
What will happen when they find out is that they'll hold fundraisers at the volunteer fire/clubhouse or start a GoFundMe for gramma when her Medicare benefits are canceled and she needs heart surgery. Rest assured.. they will find out, and that's when I tell them 'go fuck yourself.'
Those people are "SHEEP", just following the MAGA talking points. Hopefully they will follow them as they ALL FALL OFF THE RIGHT WING MAGA CLIFF!
Those are the, βLet them eat cake, β people who judge others and lack empathy for their fellow citizens.
The general public doesnβt seem that concerned. They pay no attention to the stock market or political news, but they know all the tea about the βhousewives.β
I once argued with a trollbot who said something like that. I pointed out they obviously didnβt live in the United States, because if they did they would understand how difficult it was for anybody, even with health insurance, to access medical care. then they didnβt say anything.
The medication I take to stay alive costs $18,000 a month. I wonder how many people would be able to pay for that out of their pocket. Even with insurance it is a struggle for my family to afford it every year.
π
We are learning that the Immune Unitary Executive considers us a waste of money and doesnβt care if we stay alive or not.
Also, medical costs in the US are out of control. I remember seeing an article about the cost of a hip replacement in US v Belgium. The cost was many multiples higher in US.
Oh, so theyβre anti-insurance now? Is that all insurance or just health insurance? (Sounds like sour grapes from folk who canβt afford insurance.)
I own a company. I provide Health ins for my employees. I pay 100%. I buy the best plan they have for 4 people. The plan is not affordable at all. I KNOW that after they ax Medicaid my next price hike will be more than the usual 10%. We all benefit from gov't programs. It's a universal truth.
Youβre truly a beautiful soul to that for your employees π
To do*
Thank you, but I'm just a human who employs humans. I don't ever want to be the reason someone dies. Money is nice and necessary but my employees are my priority. (But the money side convinces jerks so I will argue that side too.)
Yeah my wife relays stuff like that to me. Although she says thereβs more and more βHow can they do thatβ and βThatβs not what I voted forβ
Last MAGA person I knew, when still on FB , was holding a go fund me for their Veteran husband, so they could afford to bring him home and he needed health care aides. Huge Trump fan.This was before any proposed cuts. They were amazed how expensive it was and were angry Medicare wouldnβt pay.
That is ridiculous. No one can afford the medical costs connected to a serious illness. It is an absolute no-brainer to distribute the costs over the whole population. So, mandatory insurance, is a necessity.
Wait until MeeMaw is kicked out of the nursing home.
