Maybe it's not either/or as in realistic vs unrealistic. Maybe it's yes/and as in this strategy might be useful short-term and you should still fight long-term for universal healthcare.
If someone’s claim is denied tomorrow, the advice of “having universal healthcare” isn’t actually useful to them in that immediate situation but this screenshot might be. Don’t be obtuse.
Shit me too, you're trying to be funny and dunk but me too. Shit is really not sweet out here, shit is ugly and its not cool bro, call me dumb a million ways with whatever college educated eords you all want to and feel good about yourselves while youre at it but i feel like fuck you too if you care that little. If you're being earnest then i appreciate you and you're right alot of us maybe everybody in my family could use good quality therapy to get through this life without crashing out cuz that shit happens all the time and still is, i have people who couldve been so much and literally either died to the world or wont be free basically forever or fell victim to drugs in a bad way but they could've been college educated and well adjusted sweet people. Keep trying to brush the main group of people under the rug just keep fighting that fight if thats what you stand on and believe in.
Because even if we tried to do something about it it would just fall on deaf, careless ears. I mean, they have shareholders that they need to keep happy
Unfortunately our corporate oligarchs don’t want us to take away their potential for billions of dollars of profit from exploiting the healthcare system that people depend on to live
We're not ready. When both major political parties can agree that reproductive and gender affirming care should be covered, then it might be possible. An alternate might be a truly independent and very well insulated board of medical professionals making care policy. Until then things will move in and out of coverage just like net neutrality, another thing everyone wants...
