name a country with a working free market health care system.
seriously. You can't do it because it doesn't exist.
I dont see where she said private insurance but she wouldn't put her parents in medicaid facilities because government Healthcare is garbage. She did say private insurance is expensive, do you know the LAW (made by governments) that she is referencing when it comes to medicaid as it pertains to networth? Btw, she should be looking into a trust for all of her parents assets to protect them from medicaid.
Also, why is private insurance so much? The two most heavily and controlled industries are expensive, fancy that.
then why is health care less expensive and better performing in countries with more control than us?
So, I'm proving correct again. You don't even know what monetary policy is, and what was the opposite of that.
Hey dummy, monetary policy has given us, and the world, more stable economies.
I just can't go further with you. You are TnC for sure.
How many fucking economic crashes did we have before moving to a monetary policy?!?!?
That's right! Context clues in what I just wrote should inform you you're way the fuck off the reservation.
Apparently we read books here. QE is a tool of an economy that is based in monetary policy. It's an effective tool for a recession NOT for inflation. It would generate MORE and HIGHER inflation.
Looks like you are also ignorant to what's inflation and the difference between Inflation and Recession.
I stopped because you are unable to participate without changing words or term and creating strawman arguments for you to win.
For instance -
You still have failed to explain what you mean by printing money.
You write stupid ass s/hit like this:
So, explain to us what you mean by monetary policy is 'money printing'. You've had all day with the Googles, what the fuck are you talking about? Show how dumb I really am by explaining.
He can't even repeat the question, got another phony who's not smart enough to stfu.
If you're not on medicaid or medicare - then you're on a private insurance.
You do know that right? No you don't. Tell us what the 'other' government insurance is out there.
Government Healthcare is garbage? I'm only aware of the VA system as being a government healthcare.
What are you talking about? Do you know?
More ******* you are clueless on and this is basic.
So, did she say private insurance or not? You seem to be arguing with yourself.
The problem is the costs of healthcare, but you AND her continue to vote for those who want less regulation.
Florida elected the very man, who ran the healthcare company that got the biggest fine in history for fucking over their members.
And, like most Republicans, want to come to the Democratically supported system that they continue to cut and try to dismantle. Too bad.
Makes no sense. But you've yet to let that stop you.
Really? So stupid. The auto industry is regulated at every level ten times more. Restaurant kitchens are more regulated. Chemical plants. Industrial waste spots. blah, blah, blah.
Insurance is so expensive because healthcare costs are high.
The reason is because the cost of caring for those with chronic or long-term medical conditions continues to rise, an aging population (boomers are still around) and the increased cost of new medicines (prescription *******), medical procedures and new technologies.
Goofball, m&d is an absolute simple-minded oppositional aggravator ... no data, information, sources nor references that confirm anything. Ignore him as it's an immediate addition by subtraction ... Dope. 
I'll toss you another bone (cause you love boning), stop conflating very different things.
There is Healthcare Insurance designed to help alleviate the costs of care and medicine for the consumer.
And, there is the actual cost of the administration of health care like from doctors, hospitals, nurses, and such.
ALL health insurance is is private, unless it's medicare, medicaid, Chip or military health insurance programs (Tri-Care and the Veterans Healthcare Administration).
Ha!Goofball, m&d is an absolute simple-minded oppositional aggravator ... no data, information, sources nor references that confirm anything. Ignore him as it's an immediate addition by subtraction ... Dope.
I was waiting for you to chime in since you're actually a practitioner in the industry. Though he seems like the type to be dismissive of things like experience and education. Reminds me of another major bullshitter.
Monetary policy - Wikipedia
QE was a response to a recession (how could that happen if there wasn't economic cycles) and it used both levels of monetary policy, interest rate adjustments and monetary expansion through purchasing of bonds issued by the treasury, this is called money printing. Both of these have been used twice for extended periods of time in the 21st century, notably 2008 and in response to COVID. Your illiterate dem Chester molester friends are easy to persuade, but as you go about your day you and I both know the quality of your Chicago public school education is garbage and you should really just stop.
3 basic options for health insurance in this country; private, government, none.

You could have blamed Trump like he did or hosted presser or town hall prior to 10 days.
Comical that you think a kitchen is more regulated than Healthcare and health insurance. A little known law coined ObamaCare would have something to say about that. Nevermind all the requirements in the pharmaceutical industry (unless it was for the poison covid vax) or medical device companies.
One thing on trusts, they protect your assets against medicaid, if you didn't know that you should be looking into it (not Ed because he knows everything, I here he is giving a lesson to Astraunauts on flying space shuttles next week, so cue Challenger 2.0).
Milton Friedman also likes to point out that money printing tends to have quick and easy impacts to the economy and GDP with the negative impacts taking a long time to realize, but the reverse is true for combating inflation, restrictive monetary policy is immediately painful and the benefits take a long time to realize. We can see this exact sentiment playing out now as the PPI continues to climb.
Anyone that has had an addiction knows this intuitively because the instant gratification is powerful and the road of recovery is hard. The law of diminishing returns applies despite what you modern monetary proponents would like to believe.

Bad comparison. There are simply too many products that do not require FDA approval. As far as medical devices, companies merely have to show a risk versus reward approach. The factories creating these devices are not inspected until a problem arises. In too many cases, an application for FDA approval is submitted and given, but the follow through only arises when a problem occurs.
Hence, America, being a litigious society , has lawsuits abounding on many implantation devices. Singular and class action. EX- St Jude was sued for faulty TENS unit implants.
A glowing example of HOW - Elizabeth Holmes & her Theranos ******* testing device . This device was approved by the FDA. There are certain devices that get through the FDA because there are lesser restrictions imposed.
There are also too many “after the fact” occurrences. ie: baby food, ******* formula, Zantac,
Pet Food garners approval but the standards are given by the Aafco. That’s an entire brief in itself.
As far as medically prescribed *******- OxyContin is an example of an aggressively marketed ******* that was considered “safe” and “non addictive”. Perdue pharmaceutical company and the Sackler family are still being sued.
Cosmetics aren’t regulated, and if they did what they claim, I would look twenty years younger.
Although food ingredients are regulated to a small extent by the FDA, they get kicked back to the USDA.
Here is one for Ridge: Brooklyn, the entire borough, is putting up an Erev, thereby allowing the Shabbat observance of “not carrying outside of the home” , to be acceptable within the Erev. The only place it will not include is a specific area in Williamsburg, where the Satmar community live.
Trusts are not an issue here. As with many older adults ,living past their life expectancy, there is no money for trusts, or even groceries. If money existed for trusts, I would certainly use it for their care.
As for insurance companies, they have the big bucks. So do casinos. The odds are never in favor of the subscriber. Although medical insurance is necessary, Blackjack is not.
I disagree with Ed in the fact that insurance is so expensive because of rising costs. It is more In league with absurdity of charges. You cannot bring your own prescription medication to a hospital. Instead, the hospital provides the medication at absorbent’s cost. The charges from a hospital are simply over the top. Insurance companies pay an alternate amount. Much less than charged. If a person does not have insurance, therefore she/he is charged the given amount, she/he could face bankruptcy. The affordable care act did open insurance to those that otherwise couldn’t get it. Yet is wasn’t quite affordable. High prices, high deductibles. Many employers , now only offer part time jobs, due to the lack of cost effective provisions of insurance companies. “Obamacare” was a good start, we need more. I’m not a bit socialist is most areas, only about healthcare. We dearly need more government intervention. Yet, in England, the NHS is beginning to fail in its quality of medical care provided. I have no facts, just friends in England that are witnessing and complaining. I live in a snow bird community. Many Canadians come to Florida for required surgery. They carry US healthcare policies because of the long waitlists for surgery, in Canada. Yet many Americans get medications from Canada , considering they have lower costs for prescriptions. Another ex. Is the disparity in AIDS medication. So high in the US yet low in Africa.
Medicaid facilities are in a lower league than Medicare facilities, in spite of Florida’s SMMA program. The issue here, Medicare doesn’t cover long term inpatient healthcare. For that, a long term healthcare, (an additional insurance policy) is required. That long term care policy is a fortune. The cost of that policy is always subject to increase. I have witnessed many adults that just stopped paying into these policies, for that reason only.
Our price of medications in our country offset the cost for the rest of the world, nevermind that we incur the cost of most r&d.
Again, the price of negotiated prices is offset by someone else paying a higher price.
