  • NHS costs about 4600$ per recipient

    Spanish healthcare system 5346$ per recipient

    Canada’s is about 5000$

    The US PUBLIC healthcare spending (Medicare, medicaid, VA, ACA subsidies) is about 5600$ PER CITIZEN (not recipient).

    IE:

    Americans already pay enough in taxes for 100% free comprehensive healthcare for everyone, but get fuck all. The average household pays between 15000$ to 20000$ for healthcare.

    The American system is not inefficient, it is an extortion scam that steals trillions from working Americans and kills about 40,000 Americans per yeat.

    Wanting the US healthcare system is like wanting a 9/11 every month.

    We could give every American 100% free healthcare, without rising taxes. Imagine what would happen to the economy when every household has an extra 15k$ of disposable income?




















  • meanwhile there are LLM call centers with no authentication

    I called one, and the only authentication they asked was my birthday. instead of asking me my name or other details it just said “please confirm, are you [full name]?”

    that’s all the security to access my private data!

    then after going nowhere I managed to be transferred to a human and it took them a few minutes to authetify me.
