I find it HIGHLY ironic that conservatives are anti-single payer because they “don’t want the government to say if they can have a procedure.” Instead they apparently prefer our current system of a for-profit company saying what medical procedures they can have. Health insurance overrides doctor decisions ALL THE TIME because approving procedures costs them money. Good doctors know the best ways to fudge the order to get things approved because that’s the only way to actually help their patients.
Like gender affirming healthcare, women’s healthcare, etc… yea, government having a say is horrible unless they do what you want, then it’s ok.
Conservatives can’t even support their own ideals. What are they arguing about when they support the same shit they say they don’t…
pfft. insurance companies won't cover anything that it isn't mandated to.
