Clearly, being a woman is a pre-existing condition.
ಠ_ಠ
Things like pregnancy or being a domestic violence victim were considered valid preexisting conditions until they passed Obamacare
Republicans: “A woman’s job in life is to be pregnant.”
Public: “Ok so you’ll offer support for them, yea?”
Republicans: “Absolutely fucking not lol”
How long until Americans make being alive a pre-existing condition
Technically it is.
I’m not saying that should negate any coverage that you are otherwise entitled to… Just that living is the root cause of many issues.
I’ll try and get a cure for it first.
B-but if we had universal health care we would lose all our FrEeDoM!!1! /edit: left out “if”
we’d have death panels!
That’s technically better than what we have now. All we get is a single jackass deciding whether we die or not.
Worse, we have buggy hallucinating AI.
I mean, a Death Panel would have to actually stop and think about the life they’re going to snuff out instead of just going “Can you just die? Our share holders would really appreciate it? No? Eh, I wasn’t really asking anyway…”
At least medically assisted death panels have licensed Doctors on them, and they’re discussing at the patients request. They are not deciding who lives and who dies, just whether or not offering medically assisted death is appropriate for the patient requesting it. Instead of a broken AI just returning ‘coverage denied’ all day.
Meanwhile, Canada has the MAIDS program, with patients being often asked if they need help to kys over some minor, easily solved medical issue.

Rape kits aren’t free? I figured that because it was a response to a criminal action it counted as more legal than medical… guess you learn something new every day…

BEING RAPED IS A FUCKING ELECTIVE PROCEDURE!?!?! ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME RIGHT NOW!?!?!
When I applied for a driver’s license in Texas, they had a list of things that I could choose to pay extra for, one of which was donating money towards testing rape kits. It still infuriates that they tried to pass that off of random people.
One of the biggest scams the American Government ever pulled, was claiming that its responsibilities were actually that of the citizens, and that anyone who expects the Government to do anything but wield an iron fist is a “Whiny snowflake looking for a free lunch”
That’s just a symptom of the actual greatest scam: making people think the government should be a “them” instead of an “us.”
Its responsibilities are those of the citizens. That’s why the government exists: to regulate, pay for, and administrate those responsibilities.
That’s why they exist in theory. In practice they serve a social class that’s very much not “us” except for lip service

I’m not sure how old the image is, but I know many states (since this shit only happens in one place, it seems) have made laws requiring rape kits to be paid for by the police, even if you don’t want a report. I don’t exactly remember how it works, but you do have to report the crime to the police, so the hospital paperwork gets handled, but you don’t have to have suffer through the interview of a detective or the DA’s office.

The system is working as intended. The rich are getting richer.
I repeat, the system is working as intended.

I’m still hungry. One was not enough.
Brian got off easy, yikes.
He was basically euthanized by comparison to what he and his company did to people.
Euthanasia could possibly even be more painful than a well aimed gunshot to the head

Obviously if she didn’t want to pay for a rape kit, she shouldn’t have gotten herself raped in the first place.
Sheesh. Women today. What ever happened to them just being subservient to their man from first-blood on?
😂
He was just the face of the operation - there’s a whole board of directors.
Plenty more room for adjustments
Lots of room for ammunition too.
Holy shit, what a fucking nightmare
If wishes alone could kill, there wouldn’t be a single health insurance executive alive within 24 hours.
Should have gone with the Jane Doe,

“Brian Thompson was never satisfied with the Status Quo.”
Yeah clearly he wanted something closer to Handmaiden’s Tale
Fuck UHC. I hope you’re doing better. If so consider getting a lawyer and/or going to the newspaper if you think you can do it.
No one should have to pay for that. No one.
Not me but thank you, some poor soul I saw on Bluesky.
