It's infurating because literally talk to ANYONE in america that has worked with healthcare companies and your head will explode from how complicated it is and this dolt is like "No one knew!" Are you kidding me? Reminds me of when the whole Obamacare thing went down and I was talking to some republicans who's whole healthcare plan was "freedom" apparently and I was trying to explain how it wouldn't work and I would know since I had worked for nearly every facet of healthcare companies and they were like "Nu-uh! It's simple!"
This is basically the narrow variation of how 95% of the conversations I have had with Republicans in the south about healthcare reform start. In order of frequency:
1.)Just get the government out the way. Thats the real problem.
2.)Obamacare ruined everything.
3.)Too many moochers raising costs.
4.)My employer insurance is great. The market works just fine.
Any one of those basically requires a minimum 10 minute explanation where a couple minutes in, the eyes just glaze over. If you even manage to get the person on the same page the next set of accumulated bullshit they have learned follows right behind almost reflexively if you at any point mention how the healthcare market will not naturally produce the results they think they will without guidance, influence, footprints and/or regulation:
- Well are you suggesting socialized medicine? It kinda sounds like you are suggesting socialized medicine. Socialized medicine is evil. I heard this '
fact' about Canada or England and therefore I will argue it holds true for any UHC system or country. Everything will be worse. And death panels, there will be death panels. Liberals just want the government to solve everything. People need to be responsible.
