It's not "someone", it's basically a sociopath who's built his empire profiting on the suffering of others.
This is typical of your leftist, anti-business, nasty attitude. I assume you were always on the wrong side of income inequality.

Like most leftists, .....

Only if we lost all that due to unaffordable healthcare costs.
As do too many Americans--EVERY DAY!
HARD WORKING, DECENT PEOPLE included.

Wha wait-a-minute! Are you saying that you're a hardworking interdimensional but decent demon and not really a frog? :lol: :lol: :lol:

I am not a demon, nor am I plagued by them. (Like alcohol, tobacco, drugs)
I guess I'm lucky.

Nah, what we need is NO health insurance, but a progressive country that takes care of it's populous, instead of fleecing them for profit so that more executives can have more yachts.
So, you want ALL the taxpayers to pay for your healthcare. Where do you think the government gets its money?
Duh.
I assume you want free food & housing too.
Why do you say stupid things like that? it's not *free*, it's being paid for.... preferably at sane rates, not the insane rates that the medical community wants to charge for things.

My sister had minor hand surgery at Kaiser. The anesthesiologist asked if she snores. She was set up with a sleep test, classes and now has a cpap.

Is there any US government program that is not insanely expensive?

thanks for bringing politics into a cpap forum.
:roll:
Just close your eyes and move on it is only going to get worse leading up to the election. Smh I am so tired of this constant whole year leading up to the election being political crap and fighting. We should elect our presidents like we do some of the reality shows. Have debates and then vote them off the island or something like that. A freaking year of this stuff is too much !

Every government program is expensive, low quality, and either in short supply or the warehouses are full of stuff no one wants. Governments are the largest polluters in our country.

The best analogy I have heard is about the food chain. Imagine the government taking control of agriculture and grocery stores. Then imagine what would be available in your local grocery store. What a nightmare!

Personally, I have my experience with government-provided medical care - the VA. Thankfully, I can afford private insurance and tell the VA to GTH. Many of my buddies are not so well off and suffer at the hands of the VA.

I read about the CEO of Kaiser. He sounds like a really nice guy who cared about people. RIP.

Duh.
Since has the Government been against paying

Since has the Government been against paying insane rates for what it buys, $600 Toilet Seats, $400 Hammers, cost plus and overruns. Debt 11 trillion dollars to be paid for by our children and retired savings.

My Dad used to live by a Penny saved is a Penny earned, in our economy a Penny saved is 99 cents lost. The rules have changed. :oops: Jim

Yup, you and Bruce are right....

Maybe a better solution, get rid of the politicians and civilians, then we wouldn't need the military to protect them. Think of all the world problems that would solve,

Overpopulation, world hunger, global warming, just to name a few. :lol: Jim

Loved him in Fresh Prince of Bel Air.

Thought the strained relationship between Uncle Phil and Will Smith was very well done. Good chemistry between the two. Unfortunate we'll never get a re-union show.
