Participanteverything’s hunky dory if you obey the republican mandate on how to live your life: spend like there’s no tomorrow. because most likely, there wont be, particularly if you spend like there’s no tomorrow.

Participantyou’re paying more for less and you’re happy? if the option were to not have any insurance and just save the money, you’d be far better off: 10k year (ave family expenditure on health ins) over just 10 years is of course 100k. add the gains if you had invested it over that time. keep piling it on for the 30 years or so that you’re likely to go without needing expensive care. 300k plus interest. likely to take care of all your broken bones, flu shots and stitches that you’ll need.
since that’s not an option, since insurance companies have a mandate to be a required expense/purchase/revenue stream, you’re fucked. you’re getting less, paying more… and you’re happy? and you’re bitching about socialized medicine? it’s already here, dummy. but it’s a psuedo system where payments are required, but services are not. and that’s the point of the movie.

Participanthealthcare is already a 2+ trillion dollar industry. that’s twice your estimated cost for gb style national healthcare. you’re proposing a 50% discount… SOLD.

Participantdidn’t watch the movie, only got through the introduction of the linked website:
“If you search the web for similarities between Jesus and pagan deities, you will be met with countless results presenting the same erroneous
material which provide no original religious sources to validate their claims. However, if you search unbiased resources such as educational books
regarding religion, the texts of the religion in question, or even encyclopedias you will be presented with straightforward information free of
personal conjecture. For the reader’s convenience, I supply online source links throughout this discussion to allow the reader to verify my offline
research.”the bolded part of the intro is a fallacy and makes anything else the site says suspect. if you’re familiar with the term “revisionism”, you’ll know what i mean. specifically, history is written by the victor.

Participantnonsense arguments like “the government will screw it up” or “they’ll tax us to death”…
i pay 100 dollars a month out of my paycheck for insurance. gee, if, instead of paying it to a dozen middle men, salesmen, ad agents and insurance underwriters, i got taxed the same amount and got real doctors instead of drug dealers, i’d be far fucking better off, eh?
private industry fucks up more often and worse than government. the government does a crappy, but acceptable job in all areas: who the fuck invented computers? the internet? space travel? TANKS, for all you douchebags that so love wars and fighting rather than TAKING CARE OF YOUR ELDERLY MOTHERS.
shut up with the stupid, red herring, nonsense arguments. the health care industry should do what they’re paid for: making people better. not parsing words, not calculating cost/benefit.

Participantand on the other hand, any time america’s foreign intervention causes mass population displacement in other countries, we dont give a rats ass.
why are mexicans crossing the border in such great numbers?
what can mexicans do for themselves in their own country?
how would america react to a nationalist, socialist mexico?
how does america feel about venezuela?

Participantsaw it. irate-pay ay-bay dot om-cay.
entertaining, a little tear jerking, if only half the movie is factually correct, eg., the part about hmo’s denying treatment, then it is worth watching and paying attention to.
it’s only mm movie i’ve ever seen. now i feel like i’ve missed out.
speaking of which, apparently there’s a youtube video that shows lawyers describing methods of h1b rule bending to company execs.
