My doctor started handing off the fees to his patients. You want a skin tag removed? 50 bucks. You want a sick note? 50 bucks. Alternatively, you can pay for a subscription of like 200 dollars a year or something to cover all of those electives.
It's stupid. What happened to "do no harm"? I guess it doesn't count when it's financial harm.
I pay my fucking taxes. Allot them correctly so I don't have to double pay my physicians because you've decided to allocate taxes to nonsense bullshit instead of core social welfare programs.
Fuck ~~Rob~~ Doug Ford and the Cons. They're bleeding the healthcare system dry so they can claim it's a failure and privatize it. They spend more money subsidizing private clinics and hospitals than actually funding the regular ones.
Do you mean Doug, or are we speaking ill of the dead?
Yeah I do mean Doug.
Thanks lol.
I just want to point out that "speak no ill of the dead" is a fucking stupid idea, and nobody should ever say that phrase.
People should be remembered for what they did and who they were, even if (or maybe especially) they were bad.
I completely agree. Just last week I was saying to a friend how if we say the deceased, "were just the best/nicest/friendliest, etc." it minimizes the truly great people.
I was trying to make a joke and couldn't come up with anything better. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
