i always love games of intersectional twister, and this one's amazing: leftists standing up for anesthesiologists who make an average of 472k, and whose slaraies increased by an average of ~70k from 2022 to 2023 at a time of tons of bill-paying struggles

This is how single-payer works: Squeeze rentier providers, lower costs.
If you're outraged by this, you're getting played! https://t.co/1mc5TJ8bD0
anesthesiologists should be paid infinity dollars, and anyone who thinks they should get $1 less should be immediately executed without trial https://t.co/32Aq797DcO

my bad: the us healthcare system is great, costs are kept under control, and there's no corruption or rent-seeking behavior (as lefties have been saying all along!) https://t.co/dedxN7TTh7

Is he wrong tho?
Something that annoys me about leftists is how they can identify a real issue (healthcare in the US sucks) and then come up with absolutely r-slurred reasons and solutions (this is because of private insurance and the solution is to start killing rich people).
Like maybe the problem and solution are a lot more complicated than a bullet can fix?

These are not fricking complex thinkers. What Jesse needs to realise is fricking that the fricking original tweet sounds like they're going to turn off the fricking anaesthesia halfway through your surgery because you can't pay for all of it.
Realistically, he should address that presumption first, because he's trying to put sense into a fricking well-placed outrage bait reaction. Should have started by breaking down what's wrong with the fricking original claim rather than just saying 'look at these morons'. He's right, but he didn't think about how effective the fricking bait was fricking and how best to counter it.

Actually yes this is an r-slured policy. The anesthesiologist has no control over the length of the procedure. That mostly comes down to the surgeon and luck.
Youre lying on the table with your chest open and the surgeon makes a mistake or theres a complication that turns a 3 hour procedure into a 5 hour procedure. Is the anesthesiologist supposed to wake you up to make medicare happy? Maybe they should just leave the room and let you suffocate.
The only thing that will happen is costs will increase by the salary of the new accountants required to fill out this idiotic paperwork.

Some days I have to work longer than others.
This mostly comes down to luck and PM competence.
Should I get paid extra if I open a PR at 6:30 instead of my usual 5 because I was assigned a ticket on the day before the sprint closes that took longer than my PM thought it would take? Probably not.

So this virgin named Mary was visited by an angel one day and he said she'd give birth to the son of God, which is pretty wild right? But she accepts like it's no big deal. She's engaged to this guy named Joseph at the time. Then they go traveling to Bethlehem while she could pop any day 'cause of some census thing. No room at the inn when it's go time, so she ends up in a barn having this holy baby. Some shepherds see angels and go check out the kid in the manger. Next some magi roll in sometime later with weird gifts for the baby they followed a star to. Then king Herod freaks out trying to kill the child so Mary and Joseph have to skip town and hide out for a bit before coming back to raise Jesus up. And that's how it happened! Angels and stars just popping up announcing this miracle birth like it's any normal day. Crazy stuff man.
