People are willing to pay at least some amount if priced appropriately. Otherwise, we're going to take it for free. Remember, companies we're reporting record PROFITS during a pandemic when most people were struggling.

First off: Fuck reddit Fuck spez. Second and more important: All he needs is 1 person to agree. 1, that's it.

And there's another part of the problem: artificially inflated house and property prices.

That's what I mean. We pay so much in taxes that everything should be taken care of for us. We have been deceived into thinking that we can't possibly pay for all of this. Money is nothing to the US government.

ALL insurance is a scam. They are ALL the same. Insurance companies do nothing but pay less than what has been given. That's how they make money.

Insurance is a scam. Fuck them. I pay each fucking paycheck and they don't want to pay. What if everyone dropped their insurance and then paid out of pocket. As long as you are paying something, they can not collect, and hospitals can't turn you away.

This is literally what America is fine with health insurance CEOs being denied further life coverage.

Edit: The article is about health insurance, but it doesn't matter. The goal of insurance is to take your money, use your money to invest, and then try not to pay you anything. Yes, people have had insurance cover some things in an emergency, but they should be doing more.

No! NO GUN CONTROL! All we can do is hope and pray! Do you hear me! HOPES AND PRAYERS!!! we don't want to end up like russia now, do we!? PLEASE PEOPLE I'M BEGGING YOU, PRAY LIKE YOU'VE NEVER PRAYED BEFORE AND HOPE LIKE YOU'VE NEVER HOPED BEFORE. NO LAW OR REGULATION CAN HELP US NOW, JUST HOPES AND PRAYERS.

Edit: I messed up. We should have been thinking and praying and not hoping and praying. This is all my fault I'm sorry, everyone.

Once Republicans view something as hiw it is, there is no changing their viewpoint. All they know is to double and triple down.

There is also the "We're not voting this election" crowd. Some of the top searches during and after election day were: Is Biden running for president, and how do I change my vote. So, deep down, I really feel people tried to stick it to the Dems, but then regretted it, and now it's too late.
