"No one has talked about cutting one benefit in Medicaid to anyone who's duly owed—what we've talked about is returning work requirements, so, for example, you don't have able-bodied young men on a program that's designed for single mothers and the elderly and disabled. They're draining resources from people,” said House Speaker Mike Johnson last week.

'Get fucked poors, sucks to suck when working full time still keeps you below the poverty line. Can't afford to pay for you lazy fucks to see a doctor when we've got rich people who need the money more'

When pasty rich worms like this spout this kind of exploiter class drivel it makes me want to punch them in the throat.

What country is he talking about? Cuz it sure as shit ain't this one

Mike Johnson says the healthcare program leads to "able-bodied young men" playing videogames instead of working

Everyone else has already pointed out the obvious point that free healthcare does not exist here, but you've at least gotta give it to him that this is a reasonable conclusion to draw given that "able-bodied young men" would surely be the least likely among us to get by without access to healthcare.

Please tell me more about this free healthcare

Pretty rich coming from a guy who lets trump take every power congress is supposed to hold. WTF does he even do at work? If we stopped paying him, would anything at all happen? Every republican seems like a whiny crybullying grifter to me.

The amount of dirty looks I got today casually playing slay the spire on my steam deck as a 41 year old man in the waiting room of a medical facility was pretty impressive.

free healthcare

does he think everyone in the US gets the same healthcare that congresspeople get?

Theres nowhere in the country that has legitimate free healthcare, and only a small handful of states that have healthcare for those below the poverty line.

Where are these supposed young people just living it up off free healthcare?

My brother I am going to find every outlet of escapism possible to cope with the reality that your generation had a massive part in creating. Sorry 💅

Putting aside the, "Everyone but an idiot knows the poor must be kept poor, or they will never be productive" logic, it's also just dumb as shit to claim that "able-bodied young men" are going to be super motivated to get off the couch for the sake of health insurance - not even real healthcare, we're talking about paying hundreds of dollars a month so that if you get sick you can "only" be saddled with a very high deductible.

I fucking hate these people's guts. Something something Luigi's Mansion.

He knows this is false. It's bait, that even i see this time. There really is nothing to see here

I would prefer to work a job than to grind in a videogame. Unfortunately, Americans live in a nation where bad working conditions, low pay, heavy competition, instability, and ghost jobs makes job seeking unpalatable.

American capitalism is a cancer.

So us person here. This free healthcare he speaks of is news to me.

You gotta be fucking kidding me. What sort of disconnected boomer statement is that!?

I hate using such terms as "boomer", but how else am I going to describe this?

I'm in Denmark, and I can just about get by on one job. I have friends from America struggling to make ends meet, and they're working TWO jobs!

So the fuck is this guy talking about!?

how do i leech off of free healthcare that sounds really good

this dude and his son monitor each other's devices to make sure they don't consume porn. i don't think he should be allowed to talk about literally anyone else's habits.

Imagine living in a country that has turn to shit so long ago that you can't believe that it is possible for people can be motivated to work without resorting to the constant threat of being left to die if they don't.

Free Healthcare ? In Amerikkka ?

Since when ?

And rich people don’t have jobs because they mooch off poor people.

Hypocrisy at its finest.

I mean, isn't that kinda true? I have Medicare disability and Medicaid. I don't need to work for it. In fact, I need to not work to get it. I also get disability, so motivation for work is low.

Look up the book "Hell's Angel's" by Hunter Thompson.

There's a section in the book where he writes about the economics of being a hippie/biker/artist circa 1970.

A biker could work for six months as a Union stevedore and save up enough money to go on the road for two years. A part time waitress could support herself and her musician boyfreind.

Is this free healthcare you speak of in the room with us right now?
