Or, if you really need it, call your nurse practitioner cousin and ask for a Z-pack script and away you go.

Now that health care is in shambles with Obamacare, we will soon have NHC in next 8 years as predicted.
Originally posted by sh76Sure, we still have to tend to the rich folk who can afford timely health care.

At least an NHS-like system can efficiently provide decent service to the non-rich.

Laws must be passed to prevent the 1% from obtaining health care not available to others. ðŸ˜
Naturally, Congress would be exempt, like they are from Obamacare, but everyone else needs to feel the pain.
Originally posted by twhiteheadYes, "shambles" is an overstatement.
Higher costs are hardly well described as 'shambles'. So how large exactly are these increases? I want to see stats.
But to answer your question, pretty large.

Happy?
What they want, though, is the magnificent single payer system that the nations veterans have with cost effective death lists.

The first is two years old. Do you have anything more current?
The second two are talking about hypothetical future rates.
I want actual stats for the last 10 years showing that healthcare insurance went up due to Obamacare. So, it must show that the yearly increases prior to Obamacare were lower than the yearly increases after Obamacare.

It is starting to unravel.
When it actually unravels, let us know. Or if you have actual evidence of it unravelling, let us know. If all you have is your usual fare of lies and wild speculation, then you've got nothing.
Conservatives deal in fear-mongering because they have nothing else.
Where's their heathcare plan?
Oh, wait, I remember...
It was "Don't get sick." And then it was "And if you do get sick, die quickly so your family isn't bankrupted by medical bills."
Is this the "compassionate conservatism" we heard so much about?
