Overall not a fan of seeing expansion of medicaid/medicare, universal health is a bad choice for a country this large (due to costs), poor immigration policy (none?????? Let everyone in??????? No plan???????), punish capitalists by taxing them to death, ignoring the free market by trying to regulate labor, so many things wrong. None of this has any basis in anything true. Giving you the biggest possible benefit of the doubt, you're a reasonable person who bought into all the false axioms of right wing talking points.

There were tons of other candidates but this is the guy you (america) wanted. I mean, the fact his competition in 2020 dropped after South Carolina when Biden had been performing poorly until that point shows that machine thought Biden was the safest bet. For 2024, itd be riskier to not have the incumbent run. As mediocre as Biden has been, the fact that Biden would still be president while someone else is attempting to run for president instead of Biden will split focus in the public eye between the two.

TC definitely uses it It's unfortunate that it works really well when people are only willing to do a surface-level look at all the issues being thrown about. I'm just disheartened by the trend showing a legitimate need to address arguments with purely divisive intentions. Maybe it won't be this topic, but one topic has the potential to reach someone impressionable, especially after such points are made ad nauseum, making it sort of a numbers game when it comes to people who spread Republican and Russian propaganda. <cite>LoZguy709 posted [p:978878326] in You can ma...

I can actually help any other doc do insurance medicine if they like. It's actually a pretty easy field to get into. I started by doing medical necessity work as an IC as a side gig. Used that to buff my CV and approach my health system to be a physician advisor to help determine inpatient vs obs status payments. Insurance companies value that experience because I'd have to argue with an insurance director to get payments. Then I just used all that to apply for an insurance director spot.
