Of course y'all are jealous you can't have guns like us.
Dude, try comprehending my posts. I live here. I don’t need to wave around a gun. That’s for insecure folks.

What’s to debate? Your posts have nothing debatable. Shrug.

Neither do I, as I just said. But I like having them.

You just made my case. Can I look forward to you ignoring my posts in the future? If not then I'll be returning here to quote you.

Can you carry a gun anywhere? A handgun? I can walk out my door and legally fire my weapon on my property, and take it anywhere with me concealed or not. Can you do that?

And I read up on this, if you call someone a slur you can go to jail. WTF? I don't condone that, of course, but you don't even have freedom of speech.

We told y'all to take a hike and started our own thing in the name of freedom, read up on it.

Enjoy rainy, cold, small England. Glad you love the government controlling your health.
Your post is full of stereotypical nonsense and US propaganda, there is no truth to any of it!

Yes it is 'astronomical', over 15 years we've had far more than $250,000 worth of treatment and its cost a LOT less than that too!

Are you seriously saying you can legally shoot innocent people! I don't think so, and yes you can shoot a gun on your property here, and obviously you can take it to places you're going to use it!

You DON'T go to jail for calling someone a slur, don't be ridiculous!

Even the 'rain' thing is stereotypical nonsense, New York, Paris, Rome, Istanbul, Berlin for example ALL get more rain than London!! Its going to get to 30 deg C here over the next two days, is that 'hot enough' for you?

Oh hang on...............yes England is 'small'!! so what? That IS the only thing you posted thats true lol.

My husband recently retired at age 74. He finally fully enrolled in Medicare as his employer’s group plan coverage expired. All in, it’s going to run about $400/ month for Part B, a Medigap Plan G and plan D, prescription drug coverage. That’s after paying into Medicare since his first day on the job, in the 1960’s.

The good news is that all his providers accept the Medicare assignment which is not always the case. He will no longer have dental insurance.

I am amused when I hear some view the Medicare for All concept as free healthcare for all.

One could seize of of Bezo’s wealth and it would fund a few months of M4A. Then what?

Yes.

Am I against giving to charity, to help pay for others' health care?

Nope.
So, then you are one of the uninsured.
Nope.

That's what I'm paying combined for insurance almost $400 a month. Medicare, BCBS, Met Life Dental. These premiums go up and up. In January I will be paying over $400 a month unless I change plans. My BCBS is the same plan I had when I was working and I'm allowed to keep it in retirement. Its just to much money now for the premium. I'm really considering changing during Open season to one of those Supplement Plans with the 0 premium each month. I imagine though there are hidden costs with those type plans that add up fast.

I agree I don't know why anyone would think Medicare for all as free Healthcare. I doubt that Medicare for All concept will happen anytime soon.

That's all you'll ever get. If it's not in the format of a one-line text message, they can't understand it or don't have time for it.

The healthcare system in the US is an important matter, but no one's interested in discussing it.

Your federal and State governments screwed up your healthcare system as evidenced by government sources proving the federal and State governments screwed it up, but no one is interested or wants to believe it.

We have to believe they want government to screw it up worse than what it already is.

It's nothing but Envy. They see Germany has universal single-payer and they want it, but they don't understand Germany can afford it because Germany (and the others) do things the US is unwilling to do.
