You have health insurance just go to the hospital.
@Basketball Coach it’s not that simple. i did go to the hospital. y’know what happened? i ended up with a bill for $170,000 for my brain tumor surgery. then i got stuck with another $12,000 bill when my appendix and intestine ruptured last year and i avoided going to the ER for 4 days because i was too terrified of the medical bills. Those were 4 days of excruciating pain. i was ready to die. and when i caved and finally went to the ER, they tried to get me to pay $700 upfront before i was even examined. i was literally in organ failure/sepsis by that point, and they were grilling me for cash. this country’s busted healthcare system needs to be scrapped and rebuilt from the ground up, with medicare for all. because healthcare is a human right.
Your right to call it sir
Naw man, not music to my ears, this here high strung Ritalin fiddle’n just sounds way off
💙💟💙
I deny I’ve had any conversations with the president, my imaginary cat as well, has had no conversions with president, I could go on and on

How come a homeless person in Canada, Japan, Sweden, Finland, Denmark, Norway, Netherlands, Australia, Germany, France, Switzerland, Ireland, Scotland, U.K, Ireland, Spain & Cuba has better Health Care than the average American & the Health Care is not only better but free? Even Russia has free Universal Health Care for its captive citizens but it ranks 119 out of 188 Nations so in Russia it sucks unless you are an Oligarch that is.
✌💗😍💛
💜💗
Because we know good health leads to good family and work life. We also all get free mental health care
Mr Fugazi : I guarantee that if they privatize the NHS Health Care in Britain that it will get worst & you won’t be able to even get a stitch let alone any Free Prescriptions & really will be left alone to die like a dog.
Homeless people in Canada & Cuba have better Health Care than the average American! How come?
Sarah B Cuba – run by a generational oligarchy of wicked Communist dictators – “cares” about it’s people? Oh, boy.

Tinkly Kinkly Tingle tWinkle Toe’s : Stephen Clam Chowder Crowder Soup, who? Never herd bout im. Anyways Canada is rated #1 in the World, America 15th (falling since tRump & where it lands no one knows?) while Russia is rated 119th out of 188 Nations around the World (The World its round stupido & isn’t flat or square in case you are a flat line Flat Earther Birther). Facts are facts & its you who is damned.
Mikey D : How much does MacDonalds pay you? Minimum wage? Do you even have good Health Care provided & is it the Premium Platinum Plan or is it the Watered Down tRump “Yer on your own Sweet Cheeks” Plan?
THE DEVIL IS IN THE WHITE-HOUSE

AMERICA IS MYSTERY BABYLON
@Patrick Hill You are Satan’s spawn and no one believes your lies.
This is so important. Listen up! The con man is trying to not only take away your healthcare but also making covid a pre-existing condition. You get stuck w the hospital Bills. It will bankrupt millions
😂😂😂 MSDNC freaking out
No, the greater American population is freaking out. And so will you once you become dependent on the medical system through sickness, or one of you family becomes sick and you aren’t covered anymore due to “pre-existing” conditions. It’s happened tens of thousands of times before to people like you and you you all come crying over because you are nearly bankrupt and suddenly realize Democrats were right all along. You idiots have no foresight at all and only live for the moment with no plans for your futures as you either get old or something untoward happens.
@Utha ummm I have health insurance….
@sal been so you may, right now. But if you lose your job, then what? Or if you get covid and have life long issues afterwards which is a district possibility. In your world it would be a pre-existing condition and you’d be stuck with the bills. That’s the problem with employer insurance and why I said what I said in me previous post. What options do you have if you are fired, injured at work, or made redundant? Because it’s just not you you have to think about, it’s your family. With the ACA you still get to keep your employer insurance, but it gives you options later and also allows others less fortunate that yourself to have insurance and some peace of mind. Trump days he has developed new health insurance and is only weeks away, but he’s been saying that for at least three years now. I don’t think he’s got anything.
@Utha mmmm TDS can be treated with thorazine 👍
Love the beautiful quilt art on the wall. Thank you Sen. Hirono for sharing it, & for all the good work you do! Keep speaking up!
“All women are to be believed except Tara Reade” ! – Mazie Hirono
You believe everyone until their story falls apart. Trump’s story fell apart before he went to military school at age 13, when his mother correctly believed he was becoming a monster.
Vote vote vote blue 2020
Or else…
Every white man’s dream.
Every white woman’s envy.
That’s Asian woman.
she is right. with covid, the fight is not roe v wade, but ACA and access to health care/insurance.
Write, email, and/or phone Both your Senators today and tell them you will NEVER vote for them again, if they vote to confirm anyone to the Supreme Court before the 2021 inauguration. Do this for the next 40 some days.
we the people know it was wrong* what the republican party did chief justice Ruth Ginsburg we will remember in November , what has happened to America we love ? TRUMP disgrace to our country
And his own cases?
Really what about that rest our netion ? Is he in is mentally stable or we need to make a change?😃
Acts 3:19 Repent therefore, and turn back, that your sins may be blotted out, that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord, and that he may send the Christ appointed for you, Jesus.
All we have sinned against God, we have broken the law (ten commandments). God is a judge and just. As he is just, we are all guilty before him because we have broken his law. The wages of sin is death, we face death and judgement. But God loved the world, he gave his only Son Jesus to die on our behalf on the cross, e was risen after 3 days from the tomb. Through faith in him, we escape death and we receive life. God is calling anyone to calls upon his name with sincere repentance, with complete trust in Jesus Christ get forgiveness of sins and he is no longer under judgement because Jesus reconciled him with God through his redemptive act on the cross.
Repent and put your trust in Christ. If not , you will be judged under the law and you won’ t escape the harsh judgement of God because you have despised the redemptive work of Jesus Christ the Saviour of all nations.
Hebrews: 10:26 If we deliberately keep on sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth, no sacrifice for sins is left, but only a fearful expectation of judgment and of raging fire that will consume the enemies of God.
Grace and love from God in Jesus Christ multiply among you all.
