He'll probably write something more like: "HEY, Mr. Chat! Make me, TRUMP, the GREATEST health car PLAN ever, better than that of LAME and corrupt OBOMA!!!!
Alright, Mr. President, let’s make a healthcare plan that’s HUGE and the BEST ever! We’re talking about something that’s going to blow Obama’s plan out of the water. Here’s how we’re going to do it:
Lower Costs for All
Price Transparency: Hospitals and healthcare providers must show prices up front. No more surprise bills! People can shop around for the best deals. It’s basic business, right? People love options, and we’re going to give them more choices than ever. Negotiating Drug Prices: We’re making Big Pharma compete. The government negotiates lower prices for medications, saving Americans billions. No more paying three times what they pay in other countries!
Private Sector Competition
Promote Private Insurance Competition: We’re going to let insurance companies compete across state lines. If an insurer in Florida offers better rates, why shouldn’t someone in New York get that? Competition drives prices down—it’s a win-win for Americans. Health Savings Accounts (HSAs): Expanding HSAs so people can save more tax-free dollars for healthcare costs. Families keep control over their money and their healthcare.
Pre-Existing Conditions? Covered!
Guarantee Coverage for Pre-existing Conditions: No one will be left out because they’re already sick. Period. That was one thing people liked about Obama’s plan, so we’re keeping that but making it BETTER.
Cutting the Red Tape
Streamlined Regulations: Too much bureaucracy is driving up costs. We’ll cut out unnecessary regulations on healthcare providers so they can focus on patients, not paperwork. This makes care faster and more affordable for everyone.
Innovation and Access
Technology-Driven Care: Telemedicine is here to stay! More access to doctors via phone or video, which is cheaper and more convenient. Plus, fast-tracking approval for new, cutting-edge treatments and cures. Invest in Preventive Care: Promote healthier lifestyles to reduce chronic diseases. Healthy people cost less in healthcare!
Medicare Reform
Strengthen Medicare: It’s a lifesaver for seniors, and we’re going to make it sustainable for future generations. Cutting wasteful spending but ensuring that seniors still get the best care.
Free-Market Innovation
Encourage Innovation: The private sector is great at developing solutions. Incentivize companies to come up with new, cheaper, and better treatments through innovation grants and tax incentives.
Mental Health Services
Improved Mental Health Coverage: Mental health is health. Expanding access to mental health services, making sure people can get the care they need without jumping through hoops.
Tort Reform
Lawsuit Reform: Reducing the number of frivolous lawsuits against doctors and hospitals. This brings down the cost of malpractice insurance, which means lower costs for patients.
Choice and Flexibility
Optional Public Plan: People who are happy with their private insurance can keep it, but we’ll introduce a public option for those who want something different. More choice, more freedom.
This is it, the TRUMPcare Plan—BIG, BOLD, and puts Americans FIRST! Affordable, better options, no waste, and everyone’s covered. We’ll make healthcare great again, better than ever!
"Shut up, Chat, you're a communist!"
This is what I expect to happen when AI gives solutions to climate change. Which is what Sam Altman bangs on about in interviews to justify all the power AI models are taking up.
The solutions are all sitting right there. What people actually want is solutions that cost about three fity and don't require any lifestyle changes. ChatGPT will just tell us about all the solutions sitting there, but that's not the answer people like Altman want.
Amen. It drives me fuckin' nuts anytime -- in business as well as in sci-fi and general discussion -- when people envision a society made perfect because it's run by a genius computer.
For pretty much every challenge society faces, the major obstacle is not that we're unsure what to do or lack the intelligence to solve. We already have all the solutions, it's just that our decision making systems are completely disinterested in employing any of the solutions that we already have.
It's like, if you could get everyone to agree to listen to a computer, why not just skip the computer and get everyone to agree to listen to a combination of popular will and expert advice? Popular will and expert advice are like the supercomputer that runs society that we already have.
I came here for this. Thanks for delivering!
