Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person or their instance. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on. Keep on-topic
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

If someone told you that you currently pay $6,551 per person to receive completely covered full healthcare, and if you become a state your healthcare goes up to $12,555 per person and you will have to pay for your appointment, the first $5,000 before anything is covered and if the issue is bad enough you will pay the overhead. Also drugs prices are way higher, so get ready for those as well.
Would you vote for that?
those numbers are 2022 Canada/U.S. per capita costs for healthcare. Doesn't include the private sector costs added in for the U.S.
WAIT, that doctor isn't in your network, sorry.. you went to the wrong emergency room. I know you were unconscious but have fun sorting out which surgeons, MRIs, equipment, room fees, ambulance fees, personal trainers were covered.
Ontarians and Albertans are already voting for Conservatives to dismantle their healthcare, and Canadians are about to vote in the furthest right Conservative federal government ever. As a wise man once said, people like Coldplay and voted for Hitler. You can't trust people.
I really must not know enough about Coldplay... Lol. Straight up there with Hitler... Shit. And here I just thought they played music like Coheed and Cambria. Then again I can't name any of their songs either.
I'm afraid that's a trick question these days. I thought that was all pretty well handled up till this last election...
That all depends on what some hacky wannabe-comedian meathead douchebag says about it between ads on his podcast. /s
I'm not sure how that's relevant to my comment
Our cancer would include that. So if Canadians had our cancer they would vote for that. Which I don't think they have fallen that far.
I said it's spreading, not that it's already equal.
