Healthcare should not be tied to employment

[-] douglasg14b@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

100% it shouldn't but that's not the point here, and doesn't actually change anything about the topic at hand.

The unfortunate reality is that our healthcare is tied to our employment. This also means the side effects of that unfortunate reality are also real.

Not that I'm agreeing with the way things are I'm simply explaining that the way things are means that such argument doesn't discount the fax or serve as any sort of counter.

Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
