Bernie Sanders has heart surgery. Campaign on hold

[Rigby5]

Too Bad He Didn't Go To Canada and use their Socialized Medicine and have to wait for 6 months to a year for that procedure.

Source?

I doubt you have to wait for emergent healthcare.

Hope his Driver's License says "Do Not Resuscitate" Kinda like his campaign right now.

I'm not interested in your crazy capitalized mutterings, if you got source for your claim lets see it.

Perhaps Bernie Should Donate his body to The Soviet Union Academy of Science.

The Soviet Union no longer exists, but it was not at all socialist.
Bernie is socialist, not Stalinist.
Huge difference.

He was about the only one who voted against the Iraq invasion.
Seems to me he is vastly superior to everyone else in DC.

NOT voting to invade Iraq does not make one 'vastly superior' to everyone in DC. Having morals, ethics, being honest, not lying, not violating rules / laws - these are the issues that 'level the playing field', making Bernie just like every other politician in DC.

Good thing the Dems exempted themselves from Obamacare, huh?

No one is exempt from ACA.

Funny, in that I used a self exemption available during Obama's entire term. Never paid a fine.

In 2019, there is no fine any more.
But there were exemptions in 2018.

Why didn't he go to Cuba or Venezuela?

May have something to do with the fact that he was in the United States.

why? according to him our services are inferior to socialist countries.....hmmmmmm

The support for the invasion of Iraq shows lack of morals, ethics, being honest, not lying, not violating rules / laws, etc.
Everyone told us there were NO significant WMD in Iraq, Saddam has nothing at all to do with 9/11 or any terrorism, and Saddam actually was one of most trusted allies, who we used to attack Iran.
In general, Bernie was one of the most conservative members of congress, voting to never pass an unbalanced budget, and voting against gun control.

Sanders is fake. He is a Capitalist Socialist, preaching the value of abandoning our nation's Constitution and way of life to embrace Socialism, that has been so very 'successful' all over the world - it's great...for YOU, not him. He is going to make his millions off Capitalism while urging the sheep to embrace Venezuela.

The fake Socialist claim the Socialist government successes of nations like Denmark & Sweden where the govt completely takes care of its people. What they neglect to tell you is that these nations have the strictest immigration policies on the planet. They can afford great socialized medicine, paid annual vacations, etc.. for its people because they have borders and immigration laws they strictly enforce, and they don't let 22+ million foreign illegal 'leeches' enter the country, become citizens, and be part of their social programs.

There is absolutely no contradiction between socialism and capitalism.
If someone told you that socialism mean all means of production are government owned, they lied.
All socialism means is that capitalism has to be regulated so that it is not done unfairly, like monopolies.

How would socialism hiring doctors directly instead of letting the insurance companies hire them all, cause doctors to be unemployed?
It is clear socialism of public health care is vastly more successful than the for profit, 3rd party system we use in the US.

No, a place like France or Germany has much better health care, because they are more socialist.

And nothing for people to do if they don't like it except leave or basically destroy the existing system of government.

Serfs are always easier to please/satisfy than free people because they accept their level of servitude.

Medical Tourism

{...
Going Abroad for Medical Care
“Medical tourism” refers to traveling to another country for medical care. It’s estimated that thousands of US residents travel abroad for care each year. Many factors influence the decision to seek medical care overseas. Some people travel for care because treatment is cheaper in another country. Other medical tourists may be immigrants to the United States who prefer to return to their home country for health care. Still others may travel to receive a procedure or therapy not available in the United States. The most common procedures that people undergo on medical tourism trips include cosmetic surgery, dentistry, and heart surgery.

Lots of supposition in that paragraph. Lol
