What would America look like without these insane amounts of debt? Medical debt, student loan debt, credit card debt, housing debt and so on. I think about this so so much.

The USA has a vastly higher and more diverse population when compared to any other country with a universal medical insurance system. Getting that passed in Congress is highly unlikely at this point. We must find other more diverse ways to approach this problem!

The wife of my equine dentist is drowning in medical debt after being hospitalized with convulsions, fever, in critical care due to adverse Covid vaccine effects. Her insurance won’t cover it. Who will? GoFundMe? All bc of vaccine side effects 😔 that nobody wants to discuss 💔

Our ruling class see medical debt as a profitable way of increasing their control over all of us.

Today I had to inform doctors I have seen for many years that I can no longer see them due to a change in our health insurance. Sure the new insurance is better, but it doesn’t cover my providers. The blame for this lies entirely with our uniquely cruel health care system.
