ObamaCare didn’t work? Of course it didn’t because government isn’t capable of managing healthcare. Doctors were forced to work for corporations instead of being independent. As predicted before Democrats passed it, doctor shortages now exist. Add we now have 10-15 million illegals competing with Americans for healthcare. Isn’t theirs free?
One more little fact Krystle: Medicare is predicted to be bankrupt by 2036: https://www.healthcaredive.com/news/medicare-insolvency-deadline-trustees-2024-report/715342/
It was predicted to be bankrupt by 2031 but because salaries got boosted by inflation the fund is getting more revenue. If you ever get your Medicare For All wish it will be bankrupt in a year unless you want massive premiums and deductibles to go with it.
Democrat Krystle thinks government solves problems. Actual bad results are immaterial.
See a pattern?
Harris co-sponsored Sen. Bernie Sanders’ Medicare for All legislation when she was a California senator and offered a modified plan as the centerpiece of her short-lived 2020 presidential bid. But a campaign official told POLITICO it is no longer part of Harris’ agenda.
How can anyone think that anything related to healthcare in this country will get better if the government runs the entire system? Ridiculous! Something I never see mentioned is that government run healthcare results in creation of a secondary market of supplemental insurance for those who have the means and find wait times and other aspects of socialized medicine unacceptable. So those people essentially pay twice because the government program is so bad – and they’re willing to do so because they believe it’s worth it for their families. This creates even longer wait times for those who can’t afford the luxury. Don’t believe me? Look at Canada. This causes yet another economic gap between the Haves and the Haves Not. How does that jive with your Socialist Utopia?
Sounds just like sacrificing to send your kids to a private school.
I’ve recently changed doctors to a concierge type of care. It is costly. But it became obvious to me that the current healthcare system through doctors was more like a conveyer belt arrangement. It amounts to get them in, check your watch, get them out, check the drug company’s stats on what drugs should be prescribed, move on to the next patient.
The government and pharma have taken control of hospitals and doctors and nobody is happy with the results. Hospitals are being shut down, doctors are quitting or moving to concierge care, and patients are not getting good care.
People like Krystal for some strange reason find comfort in a nanny state. When it comes time for her to experience the system she will regret her decision.
Krystle: a great stripper name, not a high value name. It could be worse. Her mama could’ve named her Syphyllis or Gonnorrah. (Gotta be creative spelling.)
Goverment is always the answer to those losers and social misfits.
Seems like your parents named you after a hooker’s client.

Healthcare should be free , and a right for citizens not just illegal migrants.
but the cost you say – start by cutting off foriegn ‘aid’ to our ‘allies’ and stop funding the pensions of ukrainian bureaucrats for starters.
the taxpayers money that is given to illegal migrants and 3rd world tyrants would buy a lot of quality medical care for our own people.
.dont forget the grifting middlemen between you and your doctor + the BigPharma Corprate sickcare money grab , yet Krystal doesn’t have a point ?
veterans with medical bills in collections while illegals get free gender reassignment surgery – THAT is the USA of 2024.
No one respects free stuff. It isn’t a right if someone else’s labor is required.
Veterans should be using the VA and if it’s their primary healthcare then they shouldn’t have bills in collections, if they do, they need to find out why. They also have a program called Care in the Community using local doctors.
Trump allowed them private care if CA couldn’t get them in. Biden canceled it
I am not finding that and it seems weird that he only cancelled it for California. I can’t find anything online for it.
I actually agree with Ms. Able on this one.
Seen socialized medicine in other countries?
Call it Obamacare or socialism or whatever they want. No matter what they call it , healthcare is expensive even with my high deductible silver level government pan. I don’t feel like I ever see the same doctor more than twice and something has to change. Krystle sounds like she is on the right track and bringing awareness to a huge problem.
Government never solves problems. Obamacare made it worse. Nobody ever saw their $2500 a year savings. I suggest crossing the border and coming back as an illegal
Krystle is worthless as an elected official. Not sure why anyone listens to her. She is all about government and what it can do for you. How about YOU get off the couch and and do for yourself instead of relying on the government? Krystle and her buddies are all delusional and need to be voted out of office.
