    They're quite biased, opinionated, and unreliable as a news source.

    Also, i'm not sure about other people but I would be fine waiting a little longer in line for a non-emergent issue if it means I'm not going to owe some rich dude thousands of dollars for something that costs way less and can be covered by the government (who would currently rather spend billions on destroying other countries).
    Try speaking of the data and not the source the data comes from. You join dbroncodini on the invalid debate tactics will only get you approval from the folks on the left here that are ignorant on how to actually make arguments (which are almost all).

    There is a term for this in the medical community: preventative care. Countries with free healthcare are way better at preventative care because they go to the doctor for regular checkups and stuff more because they don’t have to worry about whether they can afford to do so.

    Second Bolded: If you don’t think the system should be for profit, but you’re against universal healthcare. What system do you think would be best?
    People have been hitting the ER for basic care. Just ask our two resident Medical folks. They've said it before I am almost certain.

    I think all jobs should offer insurance.

    what do you think happens when you go to the ER? They bill you. If you can't pay, you go to collections.

    Now, are there instances where illegals take their kids to the ER for a cold because they don't have insurance, and know they can't be turned away? Yes. They know a bill may come there way, but there is no real recourse to collecting. But we are talking about a very, very small portion here.

    If you want the ultimate, you've got to be willing to pay the ultimate price. It's not tragic to die doing what you love.

    No one outside of your fellow brain-dead conservatives will put an ounce of stock in to the information shared by a trash organization like PragerU. Not to mention that everything about your existence on this site is the very definition of ignorance, yet you constantly claim the same about people who present sane and rational arguments to you.

    You are an ignorant clown with an oversized ego, just like so many of your fellow dopes on this site.

    Yes, basic care. Not preventative care. They need to go to the ER for basic care because they aren’t going to the doctor for preventive care…

    Is it a small portion? I'd love to hear from someone that is working in the field.

    Let's be honest.
    Hardly anyone goes for preventative care.

    In America, they do much more frequently in other countries. And that’s my point.

    Just can't be a women's choice, but sign me up for the life of the mother or rape crowd and the "I don't want this damn baby cause I am a Methhead whore needing money not a mouth to feed crowd as well. Get ready to find dead babies in dumpsters and road side bathroom. Crack head whores being throw down steps by their pimps to end a pregancy or dead girls in abandon underground abortion site. Before abortion was legal, I can remember my mom, a RN, being approach several times to help with backroom abortions. Some will take up the offer for the money or even now with the feminists.

    You never seem to get is that legal abortion is needed to prevent the heinous of it being done in back allies, unsupervised and unregulated. The simplistic world view of the anti-abortionist is by prohibiting by law will end abortion. They just made worst. Your stance doesn't deal with the blowback of this decisions. How are you going to stop rich people from getting abortion? I am sure there are some Trump's bastards who never saw the light of day.

    Didn't learn a damn thing from outlawing beer or drugs. People will get what they want. The republicans will become repressive and more repressive to achieve the impossible, ending abortion in this country.

    or you can just go look it up...

    https://www.uclahealth.org/u-magazin...ted-immigrants

    https://www.kff.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/7761.pdf

    uninsured immigrants are far less likely to visit the ER than insured Americans. And consider we have what, 11 million illegal immigrants in the US? There are over 300 million people in the US.

    So yeah, small potatoes here.

    Wes is just an old fart living with a warped and addled mind set about racism and who actual racists are. He is basically the Mad Maxine Waters of this board. For anyone to even mention the KKK as any kind of popular group within Republican ranks just illustrates their own ignorance. For that matter other than the actual past history of the KKK which shows the Dems being the Party of the KKK when it really was a legitimate terrorist organization in this country, the KKK has become basically a Mel Brooks type joke club.

    The real racist threats are Black Lives Matter and Antifa who are organizing and executing attacks on cops and white people across teh country and it will be a cattle prod to another summer(s) of hate beginning very soon. Eventually they will spark a response in kind from gang like low-lives like the Proud Boys and the media will play it up as white racism but ignore who caused what.
