Basic Glitch@sh.itjust.worksto Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Dr. Oz Tells Americans Who Are Concerned About Medicaid Cuts to Eat Less CakeEnglish17·2 days agoI know many red states have been trying to defend Republican Medicaid cuts by blaming residents for being unhealthy.
“We tried to give you healthcare, but it wasn’t sustainable bc y’all just don’t know how to take care of yourselves.”
The cost being unsustainable is pure bullshit anyway, but even if that were true, the idea that when looking at the cost of covering healthcare in the United States, their go to argument for why it’s so expensive, places the blame on the patients for needing healthcare.
As if nobody has ever pointed out side by side bills comparing the cost of the same hospital stays in the U.S. vs just about any other county.
Peak authoritarian government acting like a narcissistic parent and gaslighting America into believing the reason they can’t take care of their kids is bc the kids are at fault. Not bc they just suck as a parent and shouldn’t have kids if they can’t take care of them.

Really I’m sure sky’s the limit in terms of what kind of shady shit you could find when you start draining the swamp.

I guess I’m still used to reddit BS where it’s like you have to walk on eggshells regarding the rules or risk getting permabanned
