The #msnbc news has to _stay_ on the job about how complex #healthcareindustry is AND whatabout.. the #MAGA news guys? Will they (#newsmax #foxnews #oan) stay or start on the job? We can hope...

They use the complexity as a reason for lack of reform.

But I gotta tell them: nothing is too complex to solve if you don’t want your civil society to break down.

Our malfunctioning Health insurance industry is just one of several big problems that have that same effect.

Complex or not, we either solve it or we go to hell on a hand basket.

So true, it's too damn complex a Dr might say "Your husband is on the waiting list.... or we are waiting for Dr approval" (my assumptions)

MOST folks have REAL factual stories to tell‼️

I knew an older guy who told his wife that he has to have a heart #stent done in 2 weeks, but he died 3 days later, a 2nd Dr said, 1st Dr was (dead) wrong
Doctors are manipulated by the #healthcareindustry
