“You will have your bad healthcare system, and you will LIKE it!”
The beatings will continue until the morale improves.
So they are monitoring basically everyone.
We're gonna need a bigger surveillance apparatus
I think it will be expanded: no need to worry about that, citizen!
If the list includes everyone, what good is the list?
The health insurance industry needs to be changed significantly as it neither makes care cheaper, more accessible or more available.
But it makes money
Takes money.
Making money is only a side effect.
It also kills the poor.
People who fail to work harder, follow the rules more closely, buy into the party narrative better, conform in the various ways more closely - than the other people. That's the poor.
So the medical system is a population filter. It's saving the cream and discarding the crap. Money is just one component in that machine.
The US healthcare system is a massive fucking dumpster fire. There, I typed it.
An evil company was evil. A very understandable thing happened when evil people are killing Americans. Now I'm going to get put on a list for liking a post.
It's like you don't have to do anything besides exist and you get put on a list. I'm sure this won't be used by the new administration to silence dissent.
Well... You also have to have good morals, and worst of all, care just a little. Can't have that.
The US is already 90% towards fascism.
I mean, they should be monitoring me because I want to see them toppled and replaced with a democracy, not just because I like seeing rich assholes get assassinated.
No shit, the NSA was already monitoring everybody to begin with.
And they're still monitoring everyone. Everyone hates their healthcare. The "List" is just everyone.
Of course they are.
Big job.
Government is monitoring everyone? Color me shocked
And have been since 2002 at the latest
Room 641A is a known fact.
Add me to the list plz. Thx.
Monitor me all you want. Monitor me while you suck my balls.
What are you going to do about it? Nothing.
You think the trump regime is going to do nothing with a list of people who are opposed to the crimes of the rich?
Violent autocrats love lists of people to persecute and kill. That's been a hallmark of trump style regimes since at least sulla in the roman republic.
I think trump has some pretty dark plans but infighting and a focus on drama will derail a lot of them like it did last time. True authoritarianism is too complex for his cabinet to pull off.
Far more scary than Trump would be a president with the same ideas he espouses but who actually is a true believer (rather than somebody who just says what he thinks people want to hear), competent and persistent in taking his promises all the way (instead of a flip-flopper like Trump).
It's the reason why the Democrat Party going even more to the Right is dangerous: it's keeps the Republicans in Fascist territory and sooner or later they'll produce America's very own Hitler rather than "just" Trump.
That's a very optimistic position.
I think it overestimates the competence of fascists past and underestimates people like Leonard Leo who orchestrated the fascist take over of the courts and has publicly committed to doing the same to every major industry and institution.
Either way we'll find out I guess.
To some level I agree but at the same time we shouldn’t dismiss the threat potential
Certainly not. We need to throw up roadblocks wherever we can.

Monitoring all nurses, got it.
So, like 85% of the adult population?
I think it's probably closer to 99%. Basically, anyone who isn't a high-level executive in the health insurance industry.

fuck insurance companies. i hope more CEOs get gunned down in the streets.
Inshallah
The fun part will be when Trump rips apart the alphabet soup intelligence apparatus and displaces much of the senior leadership. Those guys have spent decades building webs of deep and strong connections, and I would be 0% shocked if those guys were able to successfully mount an insurgency against the Trump presidency, and they'll likely take with them the list of dissidents and malcontents to contact.
Ok Tom Clancy
Idk, I just think it'd be peak comedy if, after sponsoring right wing movements around the world for seventy years, CIA leadership was forced into leading a left-wing counter revolution here at home
That's not news, we knew the NSA was spying on every American a decade ago.
