Actual Cost to Americans: BANKRUPTCY
Average healthcare costs in the US:

Giving birth? $18,000

Cancer treatment? $150,000

One month ICU stay? Between 30k and 150k.

That’s not including copays, deductibles, interest and all the other hoops you have to jump through.

Cost in Canada? $0.

Cost in the UK? $0.

Cost in Australia? $0.

OMG...👇 explains SO much 😂

THIS ⏬ IS THE ANSWER....
How we get there, I dunno...
Discuss
Did you know that in Canada, if a budget doesn’t pass the government doesn’t shut down?

Federal workers aren’t furloughed.

Funding for social services doesn’t dry up.

Failure to pass a budget triggers an election.

It puts the politicians jobs on the line.

They get the budget passed.

This Buddhist has nothing 👇
The Satanic Temple has launched a nationwide food drive (called the Devil's Pantry) to help those affected by the loss of SNAP benefits and rising good costs.
Okay ... so now we live in a world where Satanists are more Christ-like than Christians?!
Someone tell me how we ended up in Bizarro World!!

It's like watching a massive runaway train barreling across the country in slow mo-hitting 99% of the population.
Half of them don't think it will hit them bc they aren't on Medicaid/Snap.
When there are 12 hour waits in ERs & food prices have skyrocketed they MAY sort it out but still vote MAGA🤦‍♀️

NO child get's $300/MO from SNAP. The average is UNDER $180/mo. You try and feed your kids on $5/day Marco.
#DemocratsCare #SNAP
MARCO RUBIO: government paying $300 per child every month to not work is socialism.

CHRISTOPHER INGRAHAM: we pay senators $15,000 per month to not work so I'm not sure what the objection is here.

Millions depend on SNAP-I am one of them. I will be hit hard next month but I am worried about the working mother with 2 or 3 kids. What will she do when Thanksgiving comes and her kids are not in school for lunch over the long weekend?
YOUR neighbors are on SNAP -you just don't know it.
October 29, 2025 at 10:19 PM
SNAP (Food Stamps)benefits will not be sent out in NOVEMBER.
This effects MILLIONS of adults & children.
Many grocery stores depend on SNAP money. Economists anticipate that the losses will be passed on to ALL consumers-plan for 50% INC in food bills!
SNAP&MEDICAID effect ALL of us not just poor.

I suspect some Americans are unaware of the Pre-World War II changes under Hitler.
Maybe they slept through World History.
Maybe they couldn't find it in a 280 character post on Twitter.
Let's help them remember.

The whole world IS watching.
The world outside of the US REMEMBERS 1933 Germany.

Speaker Johnson will NOT swear-in Rep Elect Adelita Grijalvva.
Why?
She is an extreme, left wing democrat, anti-MAGA, nutjob trying to singlehandedly destroy Trump and keep the govt in shutdown
OR
Is she's the 218th signer to the discharge petition for the Epstein Files 🤔
I'll wait...take your time.
Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva on Mike Johnson refusing to swear her in: "The excuses depending on the day keep changing ... the timing is the fact that I am the 218th signer to the discharge petition for the Epstein files"

PLEASE watch and repost on all social media.

People have WRONGLY normalized COVID believing "it's like the flu."
You will prob survive COVID.
However, w each infection your risk of #LONGCOVID ⏫.Your risk of disability ⏫.
It's not IF you get long covid, it's WHEN.
