Its official: Trump is the antichrist

[sandorski]

He didn't sustain a nearly fatal head wound though. We don't need to rely on Biblical prophecy to be able to tell that he's a horrible person, simply examining his past deeds and actions is all you need for that.

Is an inch or 2 "nearly"?

The wound he actually sustained was not nearly fatal, his recovery was not miraculous nor a pseudo-resurrection.

I think we should try

* **Expanding health insurance coverage:** Ensuring broader access to preventive and necessary medical care.

* **Focusing on preventative care:** Early detection and management of chronic conditions can improve health and reduce long-term costs.

* **Addressing social determinants of health:** Factors like income, education, and housing can significantly impact health outcomes.

* **Controlling healthcare costs:** Exploring ways to reduce administrative burdens and promote competition within the healthcare system..

1. More money to rent seeking administrators? Our insurance system and it's overhead is actually one of the biggest wasters of healthcare dollars in the US.
2. Great, make it free at point of service by providing coverage for everyone.

3. This is so nebulous as to be meaningless, can you be more specific? Name one specific issue and how you think it could be specifically addressed.

4. See #1. Medicare and Medicaid have significantly lower overhead costs than traditional health insurance plans. Also eliminate or radically change through new regulations how PBMs work, they are leaching money from everyone. Healthcare competition is a broad topic. But in a nutshell you have to stop and break up large hospital systems and private equity takeovers of entire healthcare markets.

 

[brycejones]

If only there were a way to leverage the entire country's population when it comes to medical care and costs, and simultaneously reduce the overhead associated with the numerous insurance providers and systems. It's like if there were one system that everyone used, there would be a massive decrease in administrative costs and we could also have that system negotiate prices for everyone! And because.of the reduces costs, we could expand coverage! Wouldn't that be a thing!

If only there were other places that used different models and had figured out how to deliver better outcomes for less cost we could look at.

If only, but that's just a dream. We're America and therefore exceptional and no lessons from other countries could possibly apply to us. Something about marxism, socialism, the end times, killing grandma to save $5 etc.

Thank god we're such a pro-life country....as long as you have money.

People have called it a miracle, also let's not forget the last 3 1/2 years of his blasphemy that im referring in my first screenshot. I do believe trump is true evil in a modern and biblical sense. I've never supported him I swear to anandtech

 

[nakedfrog]

His blasphemy extends beyond 3.5 years, when exactly are you choosing to mark as the beginning of this 3.5 year period?

It says he was allowed to speak blasphemy for 3 1/2 years. I would definitely say he should have been jailed after the Jan 6th riots and the government allowed him to go free. So Jan 6

 

[nakedfrog]

LOL okay. Him saying he really won is "blasphemy"? Come on dude, just admit you're trying to make the prophecy fit current events the way Christians have done for over a thousand years.

A single-payer health system can potentially lead to:

* **Increased wait times:** Due to limited resources, patients might experience delays in receiving non-emergency care.

* **Reduced choice:** Patients may have fewer options for doctors and specialists compared to a private insurance system.

* **Higher taxes:** Funding for a single-payer system would likely come from increased taxes.

* **Potential for innovation slowdown:** Reduced competition in the healthcare sector could slow down medical innovation.

Furiously googling for copypasta to support your deeply held belief that single payer is bad? Most people look at evidence and then form beliefs. When you do it the opposite way you make yourself a willing target for misinformation.

In case you missed it, your points were easily debunked. Something you could have done on your own if you cared to understand this issue instead of "win" an argument for your "team."

True, but we are relying on translations of words that may not make that distinction.

 

[HomerJS]

My brother is suffering through Canadian health care right now. It ain't pretty.

Here's our system. What do you want to do about it?

 

[sao123]

Given that the AntiChrist is said to create a coalition of 10 nations surrounding Israel and rule from Jerusalem after desecrating a temple which currently does not yet exist... Trump cannot be the AntiChrist.

Sao123 doesn’t know he depends on cities so he can have roads but sure knows the ins and outs of the Antichrist. Very on brand.

Verily, that doth not fit my narrative, so we shall simply exclude that from consideration.

Here's some blasphemy I pulled off one of my friend's FB page. It just don't get more blasphemous than that. It's not only blasphemy, it's religiously infected political propaganda of the highest order.

What's scary about this is Trump's minions really believe this politically contrived drivel is real for no other reason than they want to. Self-induced brainwashing at it's finest.

 

[brycejones]

But the fire chief can just fuck off and there is no divine intervention for him.

In other news Donald Trump fucked a fire fighters jacket on the stage of the RNC.




I'm guessing the crowd went wild and offered their clothes up for relations as well.

The New Normal where again Trump makes a complete humiliating jackass of himself by blessing this deceased firefighter's effigy with an anointing kiss and his minions go apeshit wild over it. WWWTP you ask? Every single fucking thing about it. Weird to say the least, macabre in it's essence. Don't know whether to LMAO or cringe myself into a fetal position from acknowledging the fact that Grigori Rasputin ain't got nothin' on Trump.

No idea. The U.S. system is clearly broken, but the Canadian system also has some serious defects. I can't say which is worse.
Because of where I live and how my insurance works, the U.S. system is for me, far and away superior to what my brother is dealing with. Though before reaching 65 I was paying a couple bucks shy of $2k a month for coverage with an aggregate deductible of $12k plus a copay for office visits.
The equation seems to be huge personal cost for good care, or tax supported cost for fairly poor care. No matter how you cut it, the people that can pay will always receive better care than the folks who can't.

It’s funny what you call poor care has better outcomes at lower cost than what you call good care.

Well yeah no shit, people who have vastly more resources will do better than those without.

That is not an excuse to do nothing.

The whole point of society is that we should raise the floor to ensure that everyone has *good* access to the resources they need, not perfect/infinite access.

I agree.
