of possible clawback of $4.7 billion from insurance companies who used Medicare Advantage to bilk many billions from the US Treasury, undermining Medicare’s viability, is the top of the iceberg.

Yeah evert other country has the worst doctors. Can you imagine that they are working with the best interest of their patients health in mind instead of the docs portfolio! WHAT HORROR PUTTING PATIENTS BEFORE PROFITS?!?! WTF?

Lets pretend that people in Canada cont live 10 years longer & pay half as much as we do, shall we? Or lets also pretend that same example isn't consistent across the globe. Lets pretend that a sick poor baby should suffer and die because of whom they were born to.

I will choose facts over theories every time. Fact: Healthcare is a human right! Fact: This right is being denied to us because some rich POS thinks our pain and suffering should be a business opportunity. Profiting by denying us the medical treatment we may need to live.

Also why ignore what an insurance company did because if you jump through enough hoops, you may be able to find a way to provide what should be our human right to survive? They do this to millions of people all the time! While taking their money pretending they will be safe.

Thank you, I agree. Our biggest obstacle in healthcare justice is the false narratives. Billions spent on making people believe that health insurance is healthcare. When in fact we KNOW that ins co's profit by DENYING NOT SUPPLYING what we need to LIVE!
