It really is unimaginable. Here in Ireland, with have both public and private healthcare. If you have private insurance, for any procedure (that your cover pays for) you just give the hospital your insurer and that's it - the hospital bills the insurer. Done.

For outpatient/GP/wellness items covered by your plan, you submit your receipts and they pay you back within a week.

Don't forget about all the corruption and not these small timers like the Trump regime keeps trying to blame but the true crooks like Rick Scott who's company got fined $1.7 billion and still gave Rick Scott a $350 million dollar golden parachute!

Welcome to America where:

Although the CDC officially denies it they receive millions in funding and gifts from the industry they are supposed to be regulating.

Their members own 50 vaccine related patents, meaning those members likely earn money on most - if not all - of the vaccines that are approved by their partner in crime: the FDA. They've also colluded with their criminal friends in congress to give both themselves and the drug companies practically blanket immunity to lawsuits against vaccination injury.

You could hook the revolving door between the CDC and the corporations they govern up to a turbine and light up the Vegas strip, meanwhile congress invests heavily in these enterprises based on legislation that they are going to pass in the future because they are exempt from insider trading laws.

This collusion between government and their subordinate industry is cartel/cabal/banana-republic levels of criminal. The only way out of this is to dismantle and rebuild the system from scratch because the system is rotten to the core and is woven together by blanket webs of interlocking incestuous corruption. It cannot be untangled or fixed as each corrupted entanglement has a stranglehold on the ones surrounding it - everyone is compromised and has incriminating evidence on everyone else - it can only be dismantled, its guilty members sent to prison, and then its pieces either rebuilt or discarded with the hard-earned wisdom from tough lessons learned.

Viva el Capitalismo, que sólo enriquese a unos pocos. Muera el Comunismo, que le da vivienda, salud y educación de calidad gratuita a la gente. El mundo al revés.

It is abundantly clear that capitalism without regulation is out of control. The country can’t exist like this but isn’t that the ultimate goal of Project 2025?
