Preach. Here’s hoping that the establishment Democrats get their heads out of their asses and realize that universal healthcare is a winning issue. The only serious opposition will come from the insurance companies and the foaming at the mouth Fox News types, but fuck those people. 

Yes that makes sense, Amoxicilin is old and generic enough some places have it on their discount prescription list (the “value menu” of pharmacies). In fact I think that the last time I got some it was $10 flat, without my insurance kicking in.

I feel really sorry for this woman. Helping a child like this... I get the…

Sadly yes, like insulin. Or the sudden 300% price increase in epipens (sp?) once there was only one company making them. 

My insurance through work is pretty bad. Just going to my doctor’s office for a follow-up and to have some blood drawn was over $300.  If I want a diagnosis to a problem I usually have to go to multiple offices/tests. The bills ad up before i even get to the “treatment” side of things.

Thats like... one tiny smear of jam better. :/

Meanwhile, I in Scotland (was born in US) pay literally nothing. Fight tooth and nail against NHS privatisation.

It appears that she was willing to pay cash for the treatment since the first clinic she tried to get him seen under his real name. It wasn't until they refused to see him without a guardian that she then went to another clinic and used her son's name. The first clinic should have tried to help them by asking for a…

Like insulin?

No, the claim for the visit and script totalled $233, so that is the amount she defrauded the insurance company. This article mis-reported that part.

Let’s not. Let’s just not have deductibles. Let’s just have real fucking first world health care like every other civilized goddamn country.

Let’s have a round of applause for deductibles. If the bill had gone straight to her insurance, there’s no freaking way they would have paid that much for a drug that’s been on the market since the Nixon Administration. 

She paid $233 WITH INSURANCE? I’m flabberghasted at how utterly FUCKED the system is at perceiving who is committing which crimes in this story!

Do we expect every Jez author who wrote for the site at the same time as Hugo Schwyzer to have quit writing . . . people in glass houses and all that.

Yeah....rock stars from the 70's and 80's, even ones with doctorates, are unlikely to be the fuck-giving types when it comes to sexual abuse.

The premise of this article is wrong. As someone who works a freelance lifestyle (musician, not actor, and certainly lower budget) I can tell you that you often have NO IDEA what is going on in other people’s lives when you sign on. You don’t walk into an office every morning where people are gossiping about what’s…

We should be holding the living members of Queen who had an incredible amount of input on the movie, including the choice of director, more accountable for going forward with Singer after all the allegations. 

Just to be clear, March for Our Lives was the march against gun violence. The anti-choice event was just March for Life. 

It really isn’t the press doing this. I know lots of woman who feel unwelcome at the march because of their skin color, religion, or sexuality.

I love Cannibal Witch because she pisses off the libtards. No, I don’t like her policy on rounding up all of our children to be eaten, but she owns the lib snowflakes so hard. They all cry and scream about their children being eaten, and I just laugh at their ridiculous faux outrage.

This is what “lean in” was about, isn’t it? “Yes, dearie, open that oven door. And lean in.”
