  1. She emotes through her mouth and its goddamn annoying
  2. Oh damn an almost 4.5 year old tweet
  3. Congress passing legislation addressing every single possible rule and regulation is the very definition of efficiency
  4. I can only speak from the rehab side when it comes to Medicare Advantage plans. We are told to keep visits as low as possible for many of the MA plans because of the terrible reimbursement rates. Sometimes as low as $40 per visit. Which is ridiculous. So the patient will get maybe 5 visits or so because the agency is losing money every time they see them. Some insurance companies like Aetna, will only approve 2-3 visits max. Doesn’t matter what’s going on with the patient. That’s it. The patient is pretty screwed there. Even if they just had a knee replacement. 2-3 visits. But hey, at least their plan might cover some groceries.
  5. Can’t wait to see what Medicare is like when it’s “expanded” to be run exclusively by private insurers
  6. Which advantage plans have many ways of denying coverage. And again, their reimbursement for many services suck, causing care to be limited. Believe me, I see it everyday
  7. Yeah and they enroll in plans that have shitty reimbursements and since they are run by private insurance companies, will often deny coverage
  8. Medicare Advantage plans suck. Him being an advocate for those plans is not a flex
  9. Definitely. I feel like I make slight variations of the same thing every week
  10. I wanted to comment on that about working class, but also lost track of that thread. I think the definition of working class is anyone who has to work to pay bills and put food on the table. You don’t have access to some trust that allows you to maintain a comfortable lifestyle without working. In other words, under my definition, just about everyone here is working class. Elites have fooled the middle class into believing they aren’t working class
  11. It would be devastating to not only them, but the entire healthcare industry if Medicare was gutted
  12. We’ve decided to splurge on some bigger purchases. A new TV for example anticipating it will be much more expensive this time next year
  13. Them wanting to look like they’re jerking off a couple guys is certainly a choice
  14. This obsession with grocery prices is just weird. Are they THAT much higher? I have zero doubt that a lot of people bitching about the price of eggs still go out for dinner 1-2 times a week and probably buy lunch during the week too. All of a sudden Americans are such thrifty shoppers
  15. I really want to disconnect and pretend everything is fine. But I just can’t
  16. The time for that was last week. But nope. Misinformation, an economy that had bad vibes, and the fact she was a woman of color killed our chance to stop it. It’s happening now. Now I’m not sure what we do except prepare
  17. I love Australia, but gotdamn they are so fucking snobby about their coffee. They don’t even fucking grow their own! First time I was there one girl talked shit about American coffee. I’m like uh huh, whatever, you say nahr instead of no
  18. I don’t believe in sky fairies, but oh how I wish they were real so they could smite these fucking hypocrites
