I think that’s a myth. Most folks don’t love going to the doctor. Most people delay care and 50% of folks don’t take medication as prescribed. Those that “love“ going to the doctor“ usually have a DMS-5 diagnosis, and frequent outpatient visits decrease their likelihood of over-utilizing the ED.
We actually under-utilize care in this country not over utilize it. The real cost problem are inflated Drug prices, late expensive inpatient care, and unnecessary administrative costs, all estimated to the tune of $.30 on the healthcare dollar. The Congressional Budget Office has has estimated that the Medicare for all Bill that stands in the house and Senate would save the United States $250 billion a year while covering everyone. Medicare for all will save ~1000 preventable deaths per year, strengthen primary care and stabilizing critical access hospitals. I’m not making this up. Many other OECD countries have put in place universal financing, and benefit from the same effect. No system is perfect, however ours spends double the average of other nations and has some of the worst outcomes.

Spending too much for food and rent?
If we just raise your taxes and force everyone to get food and housing from the government, you’ll save money!
Everyone realizes this argument is ridiculous for food and housing. So why do we think it will work for healthcare?
Labor Campaign For Single Payer@LaborforSPayer
Economists Emmanuel Saez and Gabriel Zucman did the math. Replacing our current system with #MedicareForAll would result in a net pay raise of thousands of dollars for most workers, even after factoring in the additional taxes needed. Details: theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

@SenRandPaul Because Congress does not represent We the People. Need to open the playbook from 1776.

It’s certainly in the best interest of our great nation to pass the SAVE America Act and the No Tax Dollars for Terrorists Act.
Why are they both collecting dust on a desk somewhere?

@adesantisb @DrDiGiorgio Not to be rude, but the benefits you trumpet for single payer are fantasy. Catastrophic coverage would solve the problem you state, universal single payer care is an economic nightmare (supply gets limited by infinite demand as the marginal cost of consuming approaches zero).

So how do people who make less than 60 K a year fund leukemia, treatment? ICU level care? Neonatal care for a premie? There are illnesses and physical conditions that would put somebody making 200 K a year into medical bankruptcy. Through our lifetime 80%, of us will hardly spend any money relative to the other 20% who will spend a lot. None of us can predict if we will be that unlucky 20%. This is why pooling our resources together makes sense. Additionally Single Payer cuts out profiteering middle, improves access to preventative care and removes the financial obstacles to earlier and more effective (and cheaper) outpatient illness management.

No. America needs more AMERICAN doctors.
There is no value that third-world doctors can provide to America that is worth the cost of importing third-world culture into America and making America more third-world.
Andrew Gutwein MD@AndrewGutwein
The country as a whole needs more doctors. We are in an overall shortage. The biggest problem is the physician distribution around the country.

The level of disdain Spencer Pratt has for the unhoused is disgusting. And if you’re fine with this kind of talk, I don’t want to know you.
Josh Haskell: “What are your plans for the over 40,000 homeless people in Los Angeles?”
Spencer Pratt: “Well, they’re not homeless. They’re drug addicts. Most of these people are addicted to fentanyl and meth… They are choosing to be on the streets because they want to do drugs. They don’t want rules. They don’t want to listen. They want to have animals to abuse.”

@joemiddlin @Smacktalkn @historigins Still doesn’t change the fact that Congress controls spending. Hate Trump all you want, it’s making you look silly

In 1998, the United States achieved its first federal budget surplus in 29 years, effectively ending a streak of deficits that had lasted since 1969.
This milestone was achieved under President Bill Clinton, following the passage of the Balanced Budget Act of 1997, which resulted in a fiscal surplus of approximately $69 billion for that year.

@BaseCampApache @Smacktalkn @historigins Is this a real question as Congress is currently a rubber stamp for every Argentinian & israeli handout that trump wants?

See how Prufrock continuously mines - pushing and building at the same time. The machines, from Las Vegas to Dubai, are remotely controlled from our Bastrop Operations Center. These advances help TBC deliver more miles each year in the battle against soul-destroying traffic.

Why has nobody articulated a plan for homelessness as well as this before?
Spencer Pratt@spencerpratt
If that addict on your street were your own son, what would you do? That is the defining question that guides my 5 step plan to fix the homelessness problem in LA. We *must* end this evil racket of corrupt politicians and NGOs who profit off the misery of these poor souls. They launder money and feed them more drugs, so they can keep their customers locked in this hell on our streets. We have a moral obligation from God to help them and make our city safe and clean for everyone. Karen Bass and Nithya Raman have forsaken this city. Time for real leadership. Time for real compassion.

@DrDiGiorgio Sometime in the past several decades, personal responsibility became a hard sell. Somehow able-bodied citizens became envious of how the people down on their luck got free stuff. It wasn't that long ago.

"Free healthcare" is a child's fantasy. It's no different than believing in santa.
When Americans are informed that the Democrat position isn't "free healthcare," but actually, "ban private health insurance and force everyone to have government care," they reject that idea.
hasanabi@hasanthehun
voters identify free healthcare & other left economic populist policies as moderate. dc thinktanks & corporate sponsored legacy pubs are the only places where these concepts are seen as radical. that’s why they look at this graph and think, “we gotta pivot right on culture wars”
