With insurance costs rising to ridiculous heights, Obamacare destroying the healthcare system and causing deductibles to rise to the extent that you might as well just pay for all regular non-catastrophic care yourself, and inflation causing a pair of drinks at a fine establishment to hit forty dollars, isn’t it wonderful to hear Ted Cruz tell Tucker Carlson his first and highest priority in running for office was the safety and security of the state of Israel.
Isn’t it nice to see and hear our politicians have their priorities in order?
Recent health problems have shown me that indeed the insurance companies did write the entire bill known as Obamacare, as the power shift in healthcare is now complete. The doctor you see for your ailment has no ability to dictate care, everything has to be approved by the insurance companies before treatment can take place. I’ve been turned down for doctor prescribed treatment over, and over again this past two years. I’m in pain, the doctor has prescribed treatment and prescriptions, but the insurance company has denied services.
If you are out there healthy and operating under the misconception that you are under a doctor’s care think again. Their hands are tied. Your fate lies with the insurance company. Some nameless, faceless bureaucrat sitting in a glass faced high rise has been instructed to deny your claim until you get frustrated enough to just stop asking, or die, whichever comes first.
Get involved with the insurance industry and healthcare issues, I’ll tell you one thing, you’ll view the Mangione murder case in a different light, I’m certainly more sympathetic to his intent and plight than I might have been otherwise. Hey, you go into an industry that is designed to pinch pennies where people’s health is concerned, and have denial as the default, maybe you should reconsider your career options. Play devil on earth for a paycheck and maybe you deserve the consequences of doing evil.
Yeah, I said it.
Don’t put me on that jury I’m a vote to acquit. And it has nothing to do with knowing the family personally. It is time that people recognize and realize that there are evil people doing evil duties under the excuse of profit motive and protection of the corporate entity.
Never forget that when the Ford Pinto was blowing up from rear end collisions and a poorly designed gas tank placement there were lawyers and executives who asked the question, “how much to fix the problem, and how much to settle the eventual lawsuits”? And then allowed the flaw to continue since it was more financially beneficial to allow people to blow up in rear end collisions than to make the recall repair. As I said, play devil in real life for a career and paycheck, you deserve the consequences of your actions.
If you aren’t convinced by now that the last real President we had was Eisenhower, and that the forces that blew the President’s brains out in broad daylight have been in control since, you aren’t paying attention.
MAGA elected Trump because he didn’t bring us more war in his first term, and espoused peace and negotiations as a first aim, but he is sure rattling sabers on behalf of Israel right now.
Did you notice the speed with which we all went from “stop them from having Nukes” to “we need regime change in Iran right now”?
That isn’t a subtle difference, for one result we just need a few bunker busters and surgical strikes, for the other we need an Iraq style incursion. Boots on the ground.
If you didn’t see the irony this week of Israel claiming that a hospital targeted in Tel Aviv was criminal, a war crime, after having eliminated every hospital inside Gaza, you really, really, aren’t paying attention.
Out in California they raised gas taxes some sixty-six cents a gallon which will result in a raise in pump prices in the eighty cent a gallon range. The cost of a fill-up going up sixteen dollars a pop, just what the middle class Angeleno needs right now. What with clogged highways and commutes costing the average middle class family at least two tanks a week between husband and wife, the state just stole thirty-two dollars a week from them.
We have insatiable politicians who have absolutely no concern for our well being.
Have you noticed that every Democrat is up in arms over ICE and their treatment of illegals, while not voicing one concern about the actual working American taxpayer?
They all sold out to the highest bidder and the American people didn’t even show up at the auction.
Funny thing about the average American, they really don’t mind the greed of Wall Street and the Oligarchs as long as they can get out to a nice steak dinner on Friday night, or buy those jet skis so the family can enjoy a weekend at the lake, but squeeze out the extras, cause a few sleepless nights worrying about where and how the transmission repair bill is getting paid, and then the average American begins to see and feel the class divide.
Which is how you get to the bullet leaving the chamber early one morning on a New York City street that fells an insurance executive.
I see where Candace Owens is counseling American soldiers over how to conscientiously object and refuse to go to war for Israel. And some MAGA pundits on “X” are just eviscerating her for that stance. As if it is “unAmerican”.
If you are going to fall for the “Weapons of Mass Destruction” lie twice, you go die in the sands of Iran, no member from this family is going. Not even at the wrong end of the threat of a bayonet. I’ve been watching the movie about “Iran is about to have nuclear weapons” for forty years, amplified by the same liars. Let them put on a uniform and fight.
The question of the day as far as I am concerned is how long are the American people going to sit and be and afterthought by the politicians elected to solve their problems?
Israel is not on the top ten list of the problems we Americans face each and every day.
Somehow they manage to be number one with a bullet for every elected official. Go figure.
We are all vulnerable. We are all Canadian truckers. And they don’t have to freeze our bank accounts to make us the walking dead, they have full control over our energy costs, our insurance costs, and our cost of living. Our government can make it very uncomfortable for us to remain comfortable.
Our new warmongering President just had a little dust-up with Tucker Carlson online. I must be in the minority because I side with Tucker. Sure I voted Tump, there wasn’t any alternative, but I did so knowing he was Epstein compromised. His domestic policies made sense. But if he is going to abandon his domestic policies in favor of involving us in a worthless war in Iran, well, Trump was a big mistake.
I’d like to think that where MAGA is concerned we are more team Tucker than team Trump. Maybe I’m wrong. I’m not on the receiving end of AIPAC dollars, so I have an unbiased opinion.
Frankly I’d like to live my life unencumbered by politics and worrying daily about world events. I’d like to confine my focus to this little life lived right here near the beach.
But they keep making decisions that dramatically and drastically affect the costs just to be alive. From healthcare, to energy, to insurance, to food, whatever decisions they are all making are increasing every cost.
You can’t ignore politics these days, their hand is in your back pocket on your wallet full time.
