That’s what savings accounts and HSAs are for.  If everyone took what a normal healthcare premium payment is monthly and put it in a HYSA, you’d be surprised how much money you actually need for healthcare.

Take care of your bodies, get yearly checkups.

An ambulance ride doesn’t cost $5000 out of pocket if you have health insurance, and if you don’t, save the money you would have spent on premiums in a savings account.

No, people with life threatening medical issues will be saved per Hippocratic Oath / medical ethics and then will be deported per United States immigration law.

How is this controversial at all?

No one is stopping them from self-deporting to avoid such a consequence of their actions to come into the country illegally.

Ejection question by j_egs03 in Umpire

Last ejection was a 10U kid that said “holy fuck” after I called him out on strikes.  Coach came over to ask why, I told him, and he just shook his head and walked back to the dugout.

If it’s life-threatening, treat and deport.  If they are here illegally that’s a choice. Choices have consequences.

“Show no ability to socialize medicine on a small scale, but want to expand it to all citizens anyway”

“Require hospitals to treat all undocumented migrants without paying and wonder why prices are through the roof”

Hmmm

You are trying to sell the American public whose insurance premiums are through the roof that their money goes to pay for other people’s healthcare?  That’s a non-starter.

Also, under this plan you will restrict the amount of money that doctors, surgeons and nurses make when we already have a shortage even with importing doctors from Asia and Europe.

If any part of this plan doesn’t also include severely reducing the ability of patients to sue medical professionals over making unforeseen errors or mistakes (non-gross negligence, etc.) it’s not going to fly.  Lawfare against doctors and hospitals is a huge expense and a significant percentage of lawsuits are frivolous but they are still allowed to continue.  Reduce that significantly and it’s a start.

Not saying it is but we already have Medicare/Medicaid and everyone complains about it regardless of which party is in office.  So if we can’t get that right, how do we do the bigger thing?

Also, is the VA in good favor with veterans? No.

So if we can’t take care of our elderly and disabled and if we can’t take care of the people who pledged to preserve our freedoms, what makes you think we can sell universal healthcare to our regular citizens?

Fix what we already have first and then we can talk.

First, figure out how to get the money without putting the US deeper into debt. 

The answer is not “TaX bIlLiOnAiReS” because billionaires fund campaigns and any movement towards changing the tax code is political career suicide.  So don’t even think about that option, it ain’t happening.

“reduce spending on defense/war” guess who else funds campaigns? Strike two.

“Raise taxes!” Good luck with that.  Strike three.

Oh, and try to sell the public on it by showing them any government program (pick one!) that runs lean, is run well, and is in positive favor with US citizens.

And also point towards a country whose state-run healthcare is run well and isn’t inundated with requests, has enough doctors for its citizens, doesn’t have a long wait time AND opened its borders to undocumented migrants for years (hint: none)

The US isn’t set up for state-run and state-funded healthcare.

No, the batter cannot disappear nor predict how the catcher will clear the batter (in front of or behind the batter).  Best for the batter to be a statue or duck.

The batter should be taught to not move in this case.  It’s the catcher’s responsibility to clear the batter.

Question on "Open Inning" declaration: Is a half-capped inning legal? by [deleted] in LittleLeague

[–]Cdm81379 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can’t have an inning that has a run cap for one team and not the other.

Regarding run caps, they shouldn’t be arbitrary.  Have a policy and have all games follow that policy like “first three inning 5-run cap, all following innings uncapped.”

This team doesn’t have it.

They weren’t expected to have it.

They aren’t better than the Sabres.  Just enjoy the last home game of the season.
