    Whenever I see story like this I can't help but think of that slimey fucking rat face who appropriated "Medicare 4 All" and kept rambling about "choice." :pete:

      I think back to this democratic canvasser in the 2020 general. I said "Biden doesn't think I deserve healthcare. Why would I support him?" and they said "Biden wants you to have affordable healthcare". When I pointed out that "affordable" means nothing during an economic crash caused by the failures of Biden's previous administration to deal with the last economic crash, their response was that Trump has done nothing for healthcare during his entire term. They attacked me for pointing out that this meant the wholly inadequate system we have is Obama's, because if I can say that then they can go back and point to the previous president.

      Liberals will say you deserve healthcare* during a pandemic. Fucking monsters.

        They attacked me for pointing out that this meant the wholly inadequate system we have is Obama’s,

        That doesn’t seem to be the best strategy on their part but it sounds like a scene of Lib meltdown to behold :sicko-crowd:

          The most condescending "Thank you for sharing your opinions with me!" over the prospect of millions of people dying needlessly. I need to ask r/legaladvice about the maximum limit of hate I can legally transmit over text. I don't want them driving over a bridge without thinking about it and considering their options.

      I always found the choice and access narrative so funny. I live in a single payer system and I've never been told a hospital or a clinic is out of network. I've never been told a procedure or a test is unavailable to me. Maybe I've had some longer than desired wait times for non emergency procedures, but I've never been denied access.

      "Everyone gets 100% coverage healthcare for free"

      "Actually, I think some people might want choice"
