Is this anything like when you guys say universal healthcare costs more because you add on the new cost and never subtract the current cost?
Kobe thinks adding 35 million people that can't pay a dime for insurance or health care and making everyone else pay for them makes health care more affordable for everyone else. An economic genius!
The only thing that makes a product less expensive is free market competition. Look at plastic surgery or lasik eye. Prices way down and product quality way up. Under the current US health structure, only Trump was working on transparent pricing and making big pharma accountable for selling to Mexico cheaper than the US. The dementia patient overturned the transparency requirement. So, given no competition, cost only goes down when care is denied. If you throw millions of illegals into the US official health care system, with no increase in costs (nurses doctors, aides and hospital space) then you take care away from those with health care. Like water is wet.
I was kicked off Daily Kos over a thread after BO Care was passed talking about how much people were going to save. A scorching rat got on and was bragging about how her cost of healthcare came down so much that now she could afford a 45 day trip to Europe in the month of March of that year. She had always wanted to see Europe in end of winter beginning of Spring. 45 days........ In the next breath she was only too happy to skewer the people who were against BO Care. I kindly asked her who she thought was subsidizing her healthcare costs and why she thought off of the back of those individuals she could take a clearly unemployed 45 consecutive days off to travel Europe and somehow feel good about herself.
I never got the answer. I was barred from the site for not participating in rat group think.
Meanwhile my two sister in-laws were forced by their companies onto BO Care and received huge increases that they could not afford. They were clearly subsidizing the unemployed asshole who travelled Europe for 45 days. Thankfully they could quit their jobs after finding companies that provided good insurance, subsidized by the company itself.
Idiots like Kobe could give two shits about the middle class suffering due to BO Care and other rat government programs.
