This is true. And while it seems radical to most Americans, it’s the reality for the citizens of every other advanced democracy.
If a doctor prescribes a medication, that should just be it. No sort of cost or insurance company should be able to get in the way of obtaining it. #UniversalHealthcare #Medicaid4ALL

That has become a problem. Insurance companies are the ones dictating what medications we can and cannot use?

It actually isn't the reality for the citizens of every other advanced democracy. It should be. But lying about it doesn't help further the effort to make it so.

The truth is, none of the senators and congressional members on the hill cared about @SenFeinstein. If they did they would have told their “friend” to rest and enjoy the rest of her life a long time ago. Especially @SpeakerPelosi. Your lust for power and control is a huge portion of this tragedy.

The U.S. is not a democracy, let alone an advanced democracy.

False, most european health care systems have copays that vary depending on the drug. Copays and deductibles are common in most systems and important tools to prevent abuse and control costs

My doctor proscribed me a medication for a cold I had and every pharmacist in the state refused to fill it because of politics. I had to drive to a different state and pay cash to get it. Is this what you mean?

I agree. It seems health insurance companies have bean counters decide whether to cover a medication versus a clinical expert.

You could argue that America is not an advanced democracy.

Now that the United States slave has had most of the valued squeezed out of him by and inflated private central bank currency, socialist don't have markets to dump their slave output into. That is why socialism must reset the goals of capitalism toward communism, hunger games.
