Shout out to the medical profession! No way government could have convinced the public that it's ok to get a deadly, disabling disease without your avid help! Way to go!

Long Covid patients facing medical debt after insurance denials. This is another reason why we need Medicare for All.

While not the ideal candidate, Marianne Williamson is far better than Biden, from supporting universal health care to ending attempts to prosecute Julian Assange. If RFK Jr. enters the race as rumored, her history of medical woo will be trivial by comparison to his anti-vax history.

USA's healthcare system discourages people from getting care:
Millions can't pay for insurance
Millions can't pay high deductibles
Millions can't pay their premiums
Millions can't pay their copay
Many employers don't provide healthcare

Medicare Advantage is a wasteful scam which harms the Medicare Program. We should be moving towards Medicare for All, not privatizing Medicare.

There is no good reason for the health insurance industry to exit. It is a parasitic entity which extracts money when others seek or provide health care while serving no useful function.

FORMER SANTOS ROOMMATE: “He never went by George or Santos… He told me if he could get in Congress for 1 term he’d have a pension and free healthcare for the rest of his life.”

MEANWHILE congress denies that care to the rest of 🇺🇸.

"Profit-driven" health care has eroded ALL medical care in this country. Until the insurance industry is cut out of the picture there will continue to be one crisis after another, with attendant band-aid responses

@situok The root of the problem is private insurance taking a huge percentage of health care costs as profit. Dealing with multiple private insurance costs also greatly increases overhead for health care facilities.
