20 teachers at a school in Delco, PA have been arrested and charged for child abuse. 9 of the employees are accused of injuring the children by using "holds" that are physically abusive, while 11 others are charged with failure to report abuse under mandatory reporting laws.
This sounds like they were teachers for the shitty children (niggers). they would pinch pressure points on their shoulders and put their knees on their backs to get them to behave.

One hand - fuck no, if they were doing this to my child i would be pretty fucking upset

All 26 students were enrolled in the school’s Team Approach to Achieving Academic Success (TAAS) program.

other hand - fuck em, they deserved it fucking niggers need to try harder.
 
An oil change costs like a hundred bucks or so. Healthcare is not so cheap out of pocket, which is a whole other problem.
wtf kind of oil change are you getting? Jesus christ man, you are either getting robbed or using high end oil/filter. Oil and filter at most cost like $40 bucks.
 
New Hampshire is the only state in the union where you aren't forced to buy car insurance. That's another way to make it cheaper. One of the reasons why Healthcare is expensive in the US is the fact the American Health Association lobbied to cap the amount of doctors. They later admitted this was a mistake, and are now trying to reverse it decades later.
You make a great point, but much like when conservatives pointed out that poor forest management and government regulations caused the California wildfires and the Democrats just responded with "climate change lol," the same thing is true for healthcare. You can point out in detail how cronyism and excess regulations made healthcare expensive, but Democrats will just respond with "capitalism is bad," ignoring every point you made.

We lived under four years of leftist economic policy, and it was a failure of massive government spending and over regulation. Leftists will never take responsibility for what they do, and will always find some scapegoat to blame.
 
Just admit he had in a catheter in.
yeah tbh that sounds like, very unhealthy to premix dehydration into no sleep and no bathroom breaks and all for such a long, isn't it like, not that long before lack of water really does serious long-term damage to kidneys or something?
 
This is why health insurance shouldn't be used for anything short of catastrophic health events or accidents where unless you receive highly sophisticated care in a hours or even minutes you will be dead. Anything short of major surgery, needing an ambulance ride, or cutting edge life-saving procedures should be handled out of pocket.

To use a popular analogy, no one uses auto insurance to pay for an oil change or other kinds of routine maintenance. Instead you go to any number of providers who will quote you a price up front, do the work requested, and then bill you for the agreed upon amount. Imagine how much more fucked it would be if you had to go through insurance to get an oil change.

The flip side of this is that getting rid of insurance would make a large number of simple or small health care procedures far less expensive. The additional administrators and bureaucrats to oversee the insurance aren't free. Making people directly financially responsible for their own health would also incentivize them to take better care of it.
To continue this analogy imagine if JD Rockefeller decided to fund only those certified to change oil and specific schools. Then the government due to his lobbying backed that private organization as the official and legal provider of licenses to change oil. Anyone without a license from this private organization changing oil is guilty of a felony even for changing their own or a friend's oil.

Then this private organization decides to leverage their ability to license to force all certifying schools to change oil in an ass backwards way that doesn't even really make sense and attacks anyone who even suggest better alternative ways to change oil.

There is some good dudes out there who get the oil change certification and go around changing their friends oil or have an oil change night once a month at their elks lodge. The oil change certification organization changes the rules so that changing oil like this will cause you to lose your oil license. Only commercial oil change locations are allowed.

Also other countries begin educating their mechanics in the exact same ass backward oil changing method but the American one refuses to allow them to change oil in America.

Later when there is a new kind of dust that messes with car engines the oil change certification body required everyone to use a new kind of oil that doesn't solve the problem but actually makes it worse. The government helps this process along by making it illegal to use any vehicle for commercial purposes unless it uses this new oil.

Then in this thread 100 years since this started people ask "why the fuck is my oil change so expensive?"

Also, no food, drink, or sleep for a long time will effect you mentally too. I didn't watch the speech but if what he said was true, then more than most of it should just be incoherent rambling.

Making health insurance a benefit paid by the employer is a huge factor in the price, too. The consumer has no incentive to control insurance costs since his employer is paying for it. And for that reason the healthcare provider has no incentive to be transparent with prices to the consumer.

and that goes back to old pre-reagan tax hustles
it's really amazing how many different ways everything has been broken over and over and still made worse
 
Imagine handing your opposition a W on a silver platter like that. Are democrats that tone deaf?

Perhaps, but when you've been fed a steady diet of Reddit slop that ends with everyone clapping you might be tempted to do something foolish like this and find yourself confronted with someone who's more that a strawman in a story crafted for imaginary internet points.

The best part is that people stupid enough to do that are also stupid enough to post it online thinking it was some kind of W on their part.
