Mexico’s president, Claudia Sheinbaum, has suggested North America could be renamed ‘Mexican America’ in response to Donald Trump’s pledge to rename the Gulf of Mexico the ‘Gulf of America’. Sheinbaum used a map from 1607 to demonstrate an early portrayal of North America, including the United States. The comments came after Trump talked about a broad expansionist agenda that could include taking control of the Panama canal, Greenland and Canada.
To be fair, Mexico is run by a bunch of drug cartels.
Could one call Healthcare Orgs Drug Cartels as well?
Do our Healthcare Orginizations lay siege to police departments to murder their officers? Or mayors, etc?
No. They simply decline legit claims, easy and “bloodless”.
If you legitimately can’t tell the difference between the two, I don’t think anyone can help you ever understand.
The difference is negligible. The widespread opiate crisis in the US isn’t because of street drugs and militant cartels and gangs. It’s because of over prescribing of opiates by doctors overworked in understaffed hospitals, or because it’s the only med insurance will cover. The end result is the same, both are corrupt private organizations that have taken power from their respective governments through flexing violence and money. And if you don’t think major corporations can’t be violent, just ask any number of whistleblowers who are 6 feet under.
You’re right. Cartels forceibly take “protection” money from you and leave you alone. If you can’t pay, they might kill you.
US Healthcare wont FORCE you to pay them. But even if you do, you still might die because whatever you’re dying from isn’t covered. Much less blood on their hands.
And even though they technically don’t FORCE you, like you said, American society does everything within its power to convince you that you really, REALLY should
Its okay having your head up the US Exceptionalism Arse. I was just doing a funny re-whataboutism.
Unlike our “Free” (trademark) beautiful United States, in which we just wage war to make profit
I know it’s popular to whataboutism this shit, but neither is right.
Relevance?
When is a violent bunch of psychopaths at your doorsteps NOT relevant?
Climate change is rather important too but I wouldn’t bring it up when asked about my opinion on ice cream.
