I'll just leave this here again.

Probably the most stupid thing I've ever read on an INTERNET forum from undoubtedly the stupidest poster I've ever read on an INTERNET forum - foxkkkommander.

its not even close siddy.

There's a couple of posters with a crush on me...they can't tell the difference between a question and a statement ;)
Every reasonable poster can see through you for what you are - a simpleton who can't help making a fool of himself every time he comments.

A bit like Mr. Trump, actually.

Hence you classing Breitbart, Alex Jones and the National Enquirer as credible and truthful sources.

At this stage they are about as credible as The NY Times or CNN.

In Trump's America, Rape Is a Preexisting Condition

An amendment in the GOP health-care-reform bill will allow states to deny coverage for preexisting conditions, including sexual assault.

Pre-Obamacare rape survivors who sought treatment for their injuries could be denied health care later on. Under Obamacare, preexisting conditions were guaranteed to receive coverage — among them, sexual assault. The American Health Care Act is going to change that.

The new MacArthur-Meadows Amendment will allow states to discriminate based on medical history, reportedly without addressing the subsequent high cost of health care for millions of Americans.

In addition to rape, postpartum depression, cesarean sections, and surviving domestic violence are all considered preexisting conditions. Companies can also deny coverage for gynecological services and mammograms.

At 4:46 in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qNACy0To-9M
there is a chart that shows the additional cost of a selection of pre existing conditions from 17K for pregnancy to 142K for metatastic cancers

Healthcare is almost one fiifth of the US economy. At least 5% of GDP is rent seeking.

Dont believe everything you read on the internet or see on TV......I believed a guy onetime who swore up and down that under Obamacare, our premiums were going to DECREASE and that we could keep BOTH our doctors and our plans if we liked them.  Want to hazard a guess as to how that one worked out?????

Yes. Only believe what you watch or read in right-wing media.

Or something.

Nice anecdote, and all that. Pity it does precisely nothing to rebut the point.

Between prisons and healthcare the US spends 1 in every 4 dollars.
Civilised countries spend half that

It's a disgrace....the amount of wealth that is generated in this country is truly remarkable. The priorities are all wrong.

;D :o

So I'll be the one to ask then: just who are your "credible" news sources, whitey, if Infowars or Breitbart or the National Enquirer on a par with The NY Times?

Haha...I would say the WSJ and MSNBC's Morning Joe are probably the 2 best and most credible news sources at this point in time.

  NY Times destroyed their reputation this election cycle.
