"It was down to healthcare or my student loans." Well I don't think there is a better way to describe America.
-
John: "Just about anyone can become an HCSM." Me: "Oh, oh. I know where this is going."
-
Noting that you brought up the BBB, it should be made pretty clear that the BBB is not a government organization, and a company can wipe their record on that site simply by paying "fines". In other words, it's basically a more official sounding yelp with more corruption. Perhaps you should do an episode on them.
-
Denying a victim of assault is absolutely disgusting :(
-
Ah, I remember that touching Bible story when the blind man came to Jesus asking him to be healed and Jesus said "Uh, no, having eyes is actually a pre-existing condition, sorry, you don't qualify for healing"

John Oliver: "And the reason I know that is..." My day: Improves

When you pay $1200/mo for insurance for a small family and end up paying still $8000 out of pocket for a broken arm that only needed a cast, you start to consider what else is out there. My wife asked the hospital what the cost would have been without insurance to which they replied "$3000." So, it is definitely a broken system.
-
Sad part is Americans usually don't even realize how fucked their student fees and health care costs are compared to the rest of the developed world.
-
Hmm, didn't Jesus heal prostitutes, sinners, etc? Or have I read a different Bible?
-
I had brain surgery for sub arachnoid hemorrhage 9 months ago, I spent 10 days in the hospital 4 of which in the ICU, and after getting released I've had all the cognitive function tests and epilepsy tests and 3 follow up CT scans. Now I'm in the clear and fully healed with no brain damage, and all in all the cost to me was the equivalent of around 400 dollars, including meds and everything, and I only had to pay half of that. Man I'm glad I was born in Finland.
-
It's so inherently classist and ableist to tie insurance to employment. It's essentially saying that if you don't work, you don't deserve to live. Everyone deserves health care.

Love how Wanda Jo’s wig gets bigger every time
-
Nothing sums up the American healthcare system better than: "Is a crime happening to me right now? If so, why does everyone seem okay with it?"
-
Not covering obesity related problems is totally in line with christian values. As Jesus famously said, "no fatties."
-
Mind I remind everybody that the plot of "Breaking Bad", meaning a high-school teacher resorting to cooking meth to pay for his cancer treatment, is by no means farfetched. This is absolutely insane.
-
As someone who lives outside of America, this show always teaches me why i’m happy i’m not there :)
-
Whenever you hear, "Take Florida, for instance." it's never a good sign.
-
We have a serious problem here. The news will spin a kid selling lemonade and chips to raise funds for their sibling’s cancer treatment as inspiring.
-
Remember what Jesus said: "Love thy neighbor as yourself - except if thy neighbor smokes, fucks, or has any fun in life at all. And of course that love is paid with money. No, that's totally not prostitution!"

So excited to see Wanda Jo back from her over seas ministry outreach. Praise Be Wanda Jo!
