Did you know in most countries, medical debt is basically unheard of? It's because healthcare isn't a profit-driven system like it is here - instead, people actually get the care they need without going bankrupt!

#Universalhealthcare #Medicalbankruptcy

A huge slice of #GoFundMe is dedicated to #medical needs.

Behind every campaign is a story of someone drowning in the cost of hospitalization, surgery, rehab, or the domino effect of lost work.

#MedicalBankruptcy isn’t just a statistic — it’s why families lose homes, savings, futures.

Screenshot mit Text: Medical Bankruptcy: In den USA ca. 500.000 Familien pro Jahr. In Europa: rare, also selten

Sind viele schlimme Zahlen dabei, aber Privatkonkurs aufgrund von medizinischen Belangen ist echt heftig.
500.000 Familien PRO Jahr müssen Privatkonkurs anmelden.
Was das alles für Folgen nach sich zieht.
Dieses Land ist wirklich komplett im Eimer #MedicalBankruptcy

#Republicans from Rick Scott to James Lankford are pushing the idea that the US should get rid of health insurance and replace it with health savings accounts, in which people set aside money to pay for all their healthcare needs. (Chemo's not cheap, but who cares?)

Is it too much to ask that […]

America Isn’t the Country You Think It Is | Karel Cast 25-121 America Isn’t the Country You Think It Is | Karel Cast 25-121 America loves to call itself the “greatest country in the world”—but the numbers tell a different story. Over 350 mass shootings this year, a wannabe tyrant in the Oval Office, and a Supreme Court that props up a far-right agenda. 70% of our infrastructure is outdated, we lack public transportation, and universal health care is still a dream—while we remain #1 for medical bankruptcies. The reality? 80% of Americans don’t have enough to retire. Care homes are broken, healthcare for aging is inadequate, and hatred—racism, homophobia, transphobia—runs rampant. Add to that endless wars and drug epidemics, and the myth of “American greatness” crumbles. So here’s the question: are we ignoring reality because the truth is too painful to face? 👉 Watch, share, and subscribe for fearless commentary on the real state of America. youtube.com/reallykarel #KarelCast, #AmericanReality, #MassShootings, #HealthcareCrisis, #RetirementCrisis, #USPolitics, #SupremeCourt, #MAGA, #AgingAmerica, #MedicalBankruptcy, #DrugCrisis, #Infrastructure, #IndependentMedia, #NewsAnalysis, #BreakingNews, #TruthToPower, #Racism, #Homophobia, #Transphobia, #AmericaInDecline https://youtube.com/live/C8mewyggG2o

To be fair, I do pay higher taxes here.

It's literally 2% higher than an American making the same money. And all I get for it is free health care and a country that can be taken seriously.

health care for all - protect the ACA - trump care fail - medical bankcruptcy - healthcare ai right - affordable care now - insurance scam - sick of it - health justice - gutted by trump - politically yours - help save America

We call it freedom—then charge people to stay alive.
That’s not freedom. That’s failure.
👉 Fix the system. Fund care, not profit. Stand up and be counted.

When a woman with a brain bleed has to choose between survival and a six-figure helicopter bill, it’s not a healthcare system—it’s a ransom scheme. Take a bow, America. You’ve turned life-saving care into a luxury item.

TIL 45,000 Americans die annually because of, essentially, #MedicalBankruptcy.

It really is time to clearl out #MalignantConservatism.

If healthcare bankrupts hundreds of thousands every year, it isn’t a healthcare system—it’s a financial trap. Time for policies that put people over profits. #MedicalBankruptcy #HealthInsuranceReform buff.ly/AJzF3BK

Germany, France, and Japan regulate medical prices to protect their citizens. The U.S. lets hospitals and insurers charge whatever they want. The result? A crisis of medical bankruptcies. #HealthInsuranceReform #MedicalBankruptcy buff.ly/vjdHBcK

Medical Bankruptcy in America Medical bankruptcy is a uniquely American crisis, with 326,000 cases annually.

326,000 Americans go bankrupt from medical bills every year. In Canada, the UK, Germany, and 10 other developed nations? Zero. This isn’t an accident—it’s a policy choice. #MedicalBankruptcy #HealthcareCrisis buff.ly/gx3W984

You raise a good point & this would never win over the 🤮 #misogynists/ #manosphere.

However, IMO it would not matter if EXISTING #medicaldebt / #medicalbankruptcy was to be removed almost IMMEDIATELY and - this is critical - that 🔵 was able to clearly & concisely get their #messaging across.

What happens to the doctors and nurses who follow their hippocratic oath to administer healthcare? Do they turn away those with no coverage?

I survived Ovarian Cancer, received awesome treatment here in Boston. I lost my job, went through the 4 months of emergency expenses they tell you have, cashed out all my stock, sold anything I had of value, finally used every cent of my retirement.
