Demonrats, RINOS, and Libtards, bitching about taking away Medicaid money from people. What these traitors intentionally withhold from the American Citizens is that the money is being taken away from their voting base, ILLEGAL ALIENS!! And Illegal aliens are NOT allowed MEDICADE or SOCIAL SECURITY! Those funds are for the United States Citizens. Demonrats make up crap as they go along. Don't trust, verify!!

Thanks for the response, Hermit Hank. The pot is forever being stirred. People have reached a boiling 🥵 point, their rights being violated, money not enough for bills and food, cloud seeding, and so much more…something is sure to happen. This all being intentional…..

Deep State (NWO) is stirring the pot. Their goal has been to defeat the United States and it's Constitution. The NWO wants world domination and they want to kill off most of its population. What is stopping them is GOD, Trump, Patriots, and PRAYERS. Lots of prayers! This is why Trump is the target for murder of these Satanic people/demons.

You are right. Those scumbag libtards are scamming the people with their huge mass fraud schemes and robbing the people of the funds. That's why they scream and spread their propaganda lies.

You should read about dr Anthony wiener here in Montana, he was an oncologist here and has the highest amounts billed to Medicaid of any provider in the country. Several patients died under questionable circumstances. Totally untouchable, no enforcement action. The story is called the article is called “eat what you kill”. It’s a bit rough to read frankly.

Hey Eric,

So sorry to have sent you harsher words before I got your explanatory email. Good to hear you & the tech & acclimation are proceeding apace!

You do care so much about informing "the people" yet none of US have the resources of the elite or the skill set of the virtuous ground forces....I was crummy and crumbly to have picked on you. Cut & paste media links re-inforcing your point and providing the evidence needed to persuade people. At your own pace. For the record, I've slowed down too and sometimes I flag in dog days of summer and my failure to secure sustainable paid work has me perhaps a bit scared and insecure.....

Hope you can cut me some slack.

Indie small-town and underfunded even corporate Newspapers dying on the vine. Awakening our citizenry but habituating them to seek out indie news & views can be thankless work as I've learned only too slowly my whole activist life. I'm not any kind of quick study!

Here it is and I'm happy to serve....(Although finding a salaried gig one can cover the rent & PRIVATIZED profit-maximizing & WEALTH CONCENTRATING scratch can be elusive and pressurizing.

Once municipally-owned and managed before Reaganomics turned Working Class against their own best interests and as I regrettably demonstrated, it can turn US against each other too.

Identity Politics & privatized human necessities like utilities work on our nerves, foundations and on\in our Wage Stag-NATION nation that continues to be a losing proposition (at ballot boxes where it counts....) :

https://montanafreepress.org/2024/12/07/a-propublica-investigation-of-helena-montana-oncologist-tom-weiner/ Much obliged to you for sending me to research Medicaid slow political sausage-making in our Public Interest & your online host Dr Tuz...

Thank you for sending the info on the more encouraging Dr Weiner. It is a fairly common name.

This one's on me to help direct you to some indie alternative news media sources that can't survive in a corporate-captured PROFIT MAXIMIZING (and EXTINGUISHING) market that serves WEALTH CONCENTRATION rather than working and activist backbone of our long neglected New Nation of decade past due deferred infrastructure maintenance..... (our national story since the start of the SHRINKING OF THE MUDDLE CLASS.....half a century ago and going stronger and better funded than ever:

https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2017/12/31/trump-white-working-class-history-216200/

Let's work together at our own pace!

I've kept my land-line too despite Privatized Phone Company taking more of my food and rent money for me to keep it. I've not spent on miniaturization and portability so-called Smart Phones. When Smart Phones can walk a ward and explain the corporate-capture issues to our fellow and fellawnt citizens I probably won't have funds to pay for both the smarts of a small phone and the monthly Privatized service charges....I can be pretty slow meself, so I'm relieved at not having any dough to get around much anymore!

Sorry Mitch, I don’t know how to do that so thanks, never really got into computers much, my son got me this ipad and a smart phone a year ago, can’t seem to use the phone too well but the iPad is kina cool. The phone though it’s just to small and way to complicated plus I never know when it’s rigging, I still mis landlines they worked so much better as a phone.

Dear Eric,

Here's my published apology as I've now edited my triggering message in my earlier Readers Comment after reading your explanatory reply. I've edited out the harsh earlier reply that triggered your fully justified explanatory note today. Again my apologies for getting all out of joint.

Wishing you & yours Health & Balance

Maybe I missed something but it’s doesn’t seem that radical. It’s a giant amount of money. I think we need to reign in cost somewhere, maybe providers are overcharging for services a bit.

To be honest, the payouts for the fee for services rendered to the providers is ridiculous. The providers could not keep their doors open because of the low amount of payments. They bill a high amount in hopes of getting a small amount. The whole system is a farce. The doctors can't afford to pay for their insurance coverage to operate their business, they would have to shutdown. It's the crooked ass bastards who bill false charges and for fake patients and huge mass numbers of unseen people who are bankrupting the country

Good points George D.,

You begin to call our attention to how the US PROFIT MAXIMIZING healthcare system differs from the rest of the world that has socialized vital human necessities like health care with the result of boosting national productivity and quality of LIFE!

Here's a comparison to a nation-state with few national exportable resources that has democratically socialized healthcare, while only improving their free-market industrial and manufacturing sector spurring innovation into something that feeds into better NATIONAL HEALTHCARE OUTCOMES:

https://www.numbeo.com/health-care/compare_countries_result.jsp?country1=United+States&country2=Finland

Keep searching independently online, much good foreign language journalism easily translated to English with now common TRANSLATION buttons via online website tool bars.

https://www.healthsystemtracker.org/chart-collection/quality-u-s-healthcare-system-compare-countries/

Note the well-explained discussions and policy-making broadcast NEWS COVERAGE (mostly outside the US broadcast system which is corporate-captured & underwritten for both Public & Private consumption) available when you open your MEDIA WINDOW.

Especially on the subject of the DISASTROUS health\productivity outcomes of WEALTH CONCENTRATION (of human necessities like HEALTH CARE and domestic manufacturing and industrial productivity start-up CAPITAL compared to nation-states like Finland that know how stimulate and nourish both the Private and Public sectors.

Thereby tolerating no NORMALIZED HOMELESSNESS as is our NEW NORMAL here in the wealthiest and most WEALTH CONENTRATED nation-states in quantified human his\herstory.......)

Open up yer Media Window and let the bad corporate-captured & underwritten BAD AIR OUT or as Canadian bard Bruce Cockburn wrote, sang & recorded decades ago before he married a U.S. doctor and moved to the Bay Area:

Judge said to the hooker, "Can you come out to play?

I've been condemning people all day long, that's how I get paid

My dreams are full of criminals frolicking about

Open up the window, let the bad air out!"

Strangled by confusion, my mind is in decay

Can't picture tomorrow, can't remember yesterday

Send out for the Black & Decker and the psychiatric couch

Open up the window, let the bad air out

Traitors in high places take my money, tell me lies

Take a walk past Parliament, it smells like something died

They ask for trust, but somehow I've got serious doubts

Open up the window, let the bad air out

Too much monkey business, like Mr. Berry said

Drugs and oil and money, don't mean nothing when you're dead

At the risk of being subversive, nothing left to do but shout

"Open up the window, let the bad air out!"

You have to get the other side of the tax rates of those socialist countries to get the true cost of what they pay and review the waiting time for processing and procedures and the allowed procedures

We need to stop the fraud of the illegal aliens receiving our citizens care and the criminal acts from fraudulent claims.
