So...no national healthcare?

All we hear is folks will have to stand in line. Choices to turn away very ill patients. Whatever.
But the choices that folks are making...not wearing masks, joining gatherings with no precautions, thumbing noses at sound scientific evidence, irresponsible state leaders...these things are happening right now. And guess whose fault it is? It's your fault (you know who you are).
And, btw...this free vaccine? Pffft. Pfizer has just raised prices on other meds. Guess who pays for that?

Was uncertain if this is healthcare or political. So...in to the go to🤷‍♀️

@Carla he's has a plan and the plan is to listen to his handlers

@RogueLoner no, my listed worries are what is happening in this country now. In your own state, you have elderly citizens, sleeping in lines to get a poorly planned distribution of vaccines.
In California, you have people, who are deemed either too far gone, or not gone far enough, being turned away from hospitals.

@Carla no one knows what California needs they begged and begged for ventilators from the federal government and then sent them to new york,

@RogueLoner at this time I can say, yes my old friend, out with the bad and in with the not nearly as bad. How good remains to be seen:)

@MarineBob when was that? When California wasnt in need an new york was?
But really, if you havent the rooms or the staff, who needs a ventilator?
Btw...there is an oxygen shortage too.

@RogueLoner Can't be any worse than the "big, beautiful health insurance" we've had for the last 4 years now.

@RogueLoner you really dont know that he hasn't health care.
But to be certain rogue, not everyone is as fortunate as you. And I know, I know...we make our own fortune.
But you know....life.

@RogueLoner Because I can't afford it, thanks to various Republican fuckeries.
MarineBob · 56-60, M

@RogueLoner President can't make the State Legislature unreject Federal Subsidies for the past decade. So unless and until a public plan is passed, I'm still fucked over by the GOP.

I assume you also weren't born with genetic conditions that can't be altered by personal effort either.
